I just sent an email after someone told me Cox had HRTV out in Calif. They sent back a response "We have no information on this channel". I guess I am going to have to call and be on hold for 45mins to talk to a real person.

First, YANKEES SUCK!!! Second, Blame your greedy S.O.B. owner for any Provider not having the YES Network, it's George's way or the highway whether it has to do with the team personell or letting you diehard Yankee fans watch the team that you have loved for generations on TV. He almost didn't have NY cable providers have YES without giving their left n*t for it. Too bad all the $$$ hasn't bought them a ring in awhile, just the AL East for $180-$200 Mill a pop.

Also, I believe Adelphia in New England had TVG as I tried to see if it were possible to receive it a few years ago but didn't even get a reply back, we in Upstate NY(West of Capital Region) didn't get it under Adelphia. Now we are all Time Warner and only get Capital OTB, which we had before as well. They do a pretty good job although the choice of tracks running sometimes is questionable and not everyone can get to the track or OTB so it would be nice to watch SPA racing live from home. The cappin shows are great to watch as it is interesting to hear others views as well as see them here.

Send them this link
http://www.cox.com/ocpv/channellink/...sults_full.asp

Tell them to look at channels 335-TVG and 336-HRTV

Better yet, why not go to one of the top suits at your Cox company
If you dont ask you have no shot of getting it. If you ask or complain you might get frustrated, but you might get some action too.
Tell them that you have about 250 people in your horse racing group who would consider converting from satellite to digital cable if HRTV was made available.
Be creative and demanding

try this link if the above isnt working
http://www.cox.com/ocpv/channellink/LineupResults.asp

For some reason the links arent working correct. However, the above link click on sports and you will get there.

Talking Estreet TVG Group Leader

Hey Estreet...finally figured this thing out. I see you broke 1000 Point mark in the Fantasy racing. Nice Job.



First, YANKEES SUCK!!! Second, Blame your greedy S.O.B. owner for any Provider not having the YES Network, it's George's way or the highway whether it has to do with the team personell or letting you diehard Yankee fans watch the team that you have loved for generations on TV. He almost didn't have NY cable providers have YES without giving their left n*t for it. Too bad all the $$$ hasn't bought them a ring in awhile, just the AL East for $180-$200 Mill a pop.

Also, I believe Adelphia in New England had TVG as I tried to see if it were possible to receive it a few years ago but didn't even get a reply back, we in Upstate NY(West of Capital Region) didn't get it under Adelphia. Now we are all Time Warner and only get Capital OTB, which we had before as well. They do a pretty good job although the choice of tracks running sometimes is questionable and not everyone can get to the track or OTB so it would be nice to watch SPA racing live from home.

Default Is TVG Dead?

Not if you listen to them. Their argument is that the Churchills' handle wasn't that large anyway

Default Hey Hickory Hoff

[size="5"]Pretty cool site. Just getting to know how to use a few things. I almost did come up with something like backwheel H or something along those lines.
