Poker on Fox?
 
Was browsing on cardplayer.com and saw that the fox network is going to air the 'showdown at the sands' tournament in a 5 to 6 part series. And I thought the WPT on the travel channel and ESPN's extended coverage of the 2003 WSOP were great for the game....imagine all the Nascar and Cops fans tuning in to find poker on instead of their beloved 'Redneck Olympics'...looks like the games are going to get even better. God Bless the Fox network and their legion of mentally-stunted viewers (Simpsons' fans not included)!!!

Yeah I saw this too, but I wouldn't be suprised if they are referring to Fox Sports or FX.

The way things are going for poker, and considering what fox's avg rating is, I would not be at all surprised to see it on broadcast TV. Could you imagine the ratings they'll pull from all those people who dont have Travel, and those who dont have ESPN. I think this will be huge for them and poker. My guess is it will be broadcast, and then rerun on their other channels

And I said, I don't care if they lay me off either, because I told, I told Bill that if they move my desk one more time, then, then I'm, I'm quitting, I'm going to quit. And, and I told Don too, because they've moved my desk four times already this year, and I used to be over by the window, and I could see the squirrels, and they were merry, but then, they switched from the Swingline to the Boston stapler, but I kept my Swingline stapler because it didn't bind up as much, and I kept the staples for the Swingline stapler and its not okay because if they take my stapler then ill set the building on fire.
