Seattle Seahawks Week 13 TV coverage map

Seattle Seahawks Week 13 TV coverage map

The Seattle Seahawks are taking on the New York Jets this weekend at the Meadowlands. Seattle is back in the early 10:00 am Pacific slot of games, a time zone they have excelled in recent years. The Seahawks will look to keep their winning ways going against a Jets team on life support.

But of course, none of this matters if you can’t watch the game! Seattle will once again be broadcast on FOX, and have the broadcast duo of Adam Amin and Mark Sanchez. Below is the television coverage map for the Seahawks/Jets game. If you are in the lime green zone, congrats! You will get to see these teams face off Sunday morning.

Sunday will mark the Seahawks’ first trip to the Meadowlands to play the Jets since the 2016 season, when Seattle beat New York 27-17. This will also mark the first time the Seahawks have had to defend against quarterback Aaron Rodgers since 2021, when Green Bay shut Seattle out 17-0 at Lambeau Field.

Rodgers, while still deadly, is not the quarterback he once was. Although, at age 40 and coming off an Achilles injury, Rodgers is having a solid statistical season with 17 touchdown passes against 7 interceptions. However, he has not thrown a pick since October 20th.

In a shocking development, golf fans aren’t too happy with the 2024 Presidents Cup TV coverage

Not great.

The 2024 Presidents Cup kicked off on Thursday with Canadian Mackenzie Hughes taking a knee on Royal Montreal Golf Club’s first tee in front of the home crowd and chugging a Stella Artois. Once the matches were underway, it didn’t take long for fans to voice their displeasure for Golf Channel’s coverage — or lack thereof.

For starters, there are no streaming options on Peacock (although NBCSports.com does have it) until the weekend, including zero featured groups or matches.

The camera on the sixth hole is having an issue with the lens.

And, of course, the commercial load is a bit ridiculous.

Here’s what fans had to say on social media on Day 1 north of the border.

Masters to expand TV window in 2025, adds new sponsor to mix

Golf fans can rejoice: there will be more coverage of the 2025 Masters to enjoy in April.

Golf fans can rejoice: there will be more coverage of the 2025 Masters to enjoy in April.

Fred Ridley, chairman of Augusta National Golf Club and the Masters Tournament, announced Tuesday that CBS Sports will expand coverage hours of the tournament on Saturday and Sunday beginning in 2025.

In partnership with CBS Sports, the 2025 Masters will debut five additional hours of live coverage of the third and final rounds, stretching the total to 14 hours of weekend coverage on CBS and Paramount+, in addition to their digital feeds Thursday through Sunday.

CBS and Paramount+ will air the Tournament live from 2:00 – 7:00 p.m. ET on Saturday, April 12 and Sunday, April 13, which is an increase of one hour for Saturday’s third round. Additionally, two hours of live coverage have been added on both Saturday and Sunday to air on Paramount+ from Noon – 2:00 p.m. ET. Commercial time per hour will remain unchanged at four minutes.

“The Masters Tournament has had the great fortune of enjoying an extraordinary relationship with CBS Sports for nearly 70 years,” said Ridley in a press release. “Alongside our friends at the network, we are pleased to extend the Tournament’s weekend coverage and ultimately deliver more live golf for Masters fans.”

Ridley also announced that Bank of America will join AT&T, IBM and Mercedes-Benz, who each have extended their relationship, as Champion Partners. Delta Air Lines, Rolex and UPS have returned as Tournament Partners.

“Through Bank of America’s support of our community initiatives and amateur events, they have become an impactful and committed partner in our organization’s mission in Augusta and around the globe,” said Ridley. “Today’s announcement celebrates an expansion of our relationship, and we are delighted to welcome Bank of America to our valued family of Masters Tournament partners, which together will strengthen the Tournament for many years to come.”

Bank of America previously has served as a Proud Partner of the Augusta National Women’s Amateur since the inaugural Championship in 2019, as well as the Latin America Amateur Championship and Asia-Pacific Amateur Championship since 2022.

The 2025 Masters Tournament is scheduled for April 7 – 13. Scottie Scheffler is the defending champion.

How Lexi Thompson helped Shriners Children’s Open compete in a crazy Las Vegas sports week

Take a look at all the sporting events the Shriners is competing against.

LAS VEGAS — When organizers of the Shriners Children’s Open contemplated a sponsor exemption that might bring Lexi Thompson to the PGA Tour event at TPC Summerlin, a number of factors weighed into the decision.

First, Thompson had to agree. The LPGA star had struggled earlier in the season but rebounded with a strong showing at the Solheim Cup and felt good enough about her game to take part. She has always had the distance to play with the men, but with other facets of her game improving, the move made sense.

Next, the PGA Tour needed to sign off on the idea. Although sponsors have the right to add whomever they desire, anything that might upset the apple cart needs to be run through Commissioner Jay Monahan’s office. The approval came midway through last week.

The reason they were willing to go through such hoops is organizers understood the tournament needed some buzz, as selling tickets in Las Vegas isn’t as easy as it once was. TPC Summerlin is a great venue for a PGA Tour event, but when Jim Furyk was winning back-to-back titles in the late 1990s, the sports landscape was rather scarce. Due to gambling restrictions by most professional sports organizations, Vegas didn’t have any pro teams, so area sports fans flocked in droves when the Tour came to town.

Now, however, Sin City has as many sporting events to offer as any other American metro market, and on this week, the schedule was especially packed.

Thompson’s appearance certainly moved the needle in terms of national media coverage. ESPN and Golf Channel flashed updates and graphics about Thompson’s pending arrival and newspapers, like our network partner USA Today, featured Thompson prominently on their covers.

“At the end of the day, I think having Lexi in the field and on the broadcast, it’s only going to bring more eyes to the broadcast, which will bring more eyes to the golfers who are here and the golfers’ sponsors that are on their shirts and hats and bags,” Shriners tournament director Patrick Lindsay told Golf Magazine. “Everyone should be looking at this from a very positive standpoint because we’re bringing more eyes to the players, Shriners, the city, the golf course, all of it.”

Of course, Thompson’s team has enjoyed the hype, from her agent Brett Falkoff, who walked the course with her Tuesday during a practice round, to her sponsors.

“Lexi is a role model on and off the course, and her participation in a PGA Tour tournament is another exceptional showcase of her leadership,” said Lawrence Calcano, chairman and CEO at iCapital, one of Lexi’s corporate sponsors. “She has a track record of making history – becoming the youngest golfer to play in the U.S. Women’s Open and the youngest player to win a tournament on the LPGA Tour – and the iCapital team is proud to stand behind her.”

Here’s a look at what Lindsay and others were up against this week:

2023 Ryder Cup in Italy sets TV viewership record

It was a record-breaking week near Rome.

More than 270,000 people from 100 different countries attended the 2023 Ryder Cup to watch the Europeans defeat the Americans, 16½-11½, and reclaim the cup at Marco Simone Golf and Country Club near Rome, Italy.

Even more watched from home.

On Tuesday, Ryder Cup Europe shared early numbers that showed a rise in average viewership on Sky Sports, particularly in the United Kingdom, which saw a 38 percent increase compared to the 2021 Ryder Cup at Whistling Straits and a 25 percent increase from the last European-hosted Cup in 2018 at Le Golf National near Paris.

“The 2023 Ryder Cup in Italy once again underlined the global appeal and continued growth of one of the world’s leading sporting events,” said Guy Kinnings, Executive Director of the Ryder Cup. “This year’s contest, played against the backdrop of the historic city of Rome, truly connected with fans around the world, and our early figures show significant increases in engagement even from the recent record-breaking editions.”

While the 2023 edition was the most watched Ryder Cup ever on Sky Sports, the NBC Sports coverage in the United States left fans wanting more.

Not even two hours into the coverage of the Friday foursomes matches and television viewers who were awake at 1 a.m. ET for the start were already fed up with the coverage (or lack thereof).

Airing on USA Network, the broadcast missed the introductions and tee shots from the third match of Shane Lowry and Sepp Straka vs. Rickie Fowler and Collin Morikawa and showed more commercials than golf shots. This year’s broadcast featured a score bug in the bottom right of the screen that showed the matches and live results, which was a nice innovation, except when the coverage didn’t provide context for how those scores came to be.

The 2025 Ryder Cup, the 45th playing of the biennial bash between the U.S. and Europe, will be held at Bethpage Black in New York.

Dream pairing? See who Tiger Woods will play with for the first two days at the PGA Championship

The group he’s going to play the first two rounds with would have been must-watch TV — even without him.

[mm-video type=video id=01g39bw0c2wy4y979wcb playlist_id=none player_id=none image=https://images2.minutemediacdn.com/image/upload/video/thumbnail/mmplus/01g39bw0c2wy4y979wcb/01g39bw0c2wy4y979wcb-b5dcbf5caf14b636a07eaabe22a2095b.jpg]

Tiger Woods is getting set to play at Southern Hills as part of the 2022 PGA Championship, his latest appearance after a 47th-place finish at The Masters, and he’s attempting to win a 16th major.

The group he’s going to play the first two rounds with would have been must-watch TV — even without him.

But he’s in the trio that will tee off at 9:11 a.m. ET on Thursday and Friday at 2:30 p.m. ET: It’s Tiger, Rory McIlroy and Jordan Spieth.

McIlroy was asked on Tuesday if he was surprised to see Woods making his second start of the year this week at Southern Hills.

“No, not really. Has it been six weeks or so since Augusta? Six weeks is a long enough time to recover from that week and then build yourself back up again,” McIlroy said of Woods. “He certainly hasn’t chosen two of the easiest walks in golf to come back to, Augusta and here.

“But no, he’s stubborn, he’s determined. This is what he lives for. He lives for these major championships, and if he believes he can get around 18 holes, he believes he can win.”

This is certainly the group everyone’s going to be tracking. Three legends who have won a combined 22 majors, together for two days.

College GameDay notes ahead of Clemson-Notre Dame

Have you ever wondered about how Notre Dame has fared when Lee Corso and company have been in attendance?

It’s the game of the year in the ACC as No. 1 Clemson goes on the road to face No. 4 Notre Dame in a game that has massive implications for the College Football Playoff.

ESPN’s “College GameDay” will broadcast from Notre Dame Stadium on Saturday morning, marking the program’s first trip to South Bend since the season opener against Michigan in 2018 and their 10th trip to Notre Dame overall.

In the nine games ESPN has broadcast “College GameDay” from Notre Dame previously, the Irish are 5-4 overall, including a win over No. 1 Florida State the first time the show ever went remote, in November 1993 for that epic No. 1 vs. No. 2 showdown.

Have you ever wondered how Notre Dame has fared when Lee Corso, Kirk Herbstreit and company have been in attendance?  Find that out and plenty of other notes about “College GameDay’s” history with both Notre Dame and Clemson:

  • Lee Corso is 6-4 when picking Notre Dame with his headgear pick all-time and 10-5 when picking against the Irish

  • Corso has picked against only Oklahoma more (19) than he has against Notre Dame all-time (15)
  • Corso is 10-2 all-time when picking Clemson with his headgear pick, including being correct in his last nine predictions
  • Corso is 5-7 when picking against Clemson
  • This is Clemson’s 18th appearance on “College GameDay” since the start of the 2015 season, the most of any team in the country during that time
  • Clemson has not lost a regular-season game with “College GameDay” in attendance since their 2013 loss to Florida State.  They did however lose last year’s national championship game to LSU with GameDay there.
  • Saturday marks the 27th all-time game “College GameDay” has been in attendance for between a pair of top four teams. The home team has won 18 of the previous 26 games.

Will the Washington-Rams Week 5 game be on TV in your area?

A lot of eyes will turn to Washington on Sunday to see if Kyle Allen can be the change the team needed to win and turn the season around.

Will you be tuning in when QB Kyle Allen takes his first snaps under center with the Washington Football Team? Well, that’s a loaded question. Will the game even be on TV in your area?

Whether or not you’re tuning in via cable or finding a stream, it will be an interesting moment for Washington fans who are looking to see if Allen is the player that can turn the young season around and lead Washington on a stretch of success that might see them compete for a spot in the playoffs, working to grab hold of a weak NFC East division. Failure or not, the spectacle will be something to see.

Kickoff is set for 1:00 p.m. ET, which is the prime window for Washington, but an early game for the Rams, a west coast team. Check the map from 506 Sports below to see if Washington-Rams will be on FOX in your area.

Like it or not, this game will likely be a major referendum on Ron Rivera and his coaching decisions early on in his tenure in Washington, as the move to bench Dwayne Haskins after only four games in the 2020 season ruffled more than a few feathers. However, Rivera stated on Wednesday that he believes the NFC East is up for the taking, and it is Allen who gives his team a better chance at victory than Haskins, and he owed it to his team to take that shot.

Will it pay off? Who knows. You’ll definitely want to tune in to find out, though.
