I’m sick of winning all the time

S

ssetta

Well, I’m not sick of the city of Boston and the region of New England winning championships, but I am sick of all the channels pre-empting network programming in favor of celebration coverage. Why does it have to be on all the channels? I think I saw even NBC10 Providence will he covering the parade tomorrow.

And why not? Folks in RI and Bristol County MA are just as attached to the Patriots (maybe more) than people in the Boston Metro. That's the side benefit of having the stadium roughly half-way between two markets.

I don't think I'd lose any money if I were to bet that WLNE and WPRI will also have coverage.
 
WMUR is airing a 30 minute version of Steve, while Today With Kathie Lee & Honda is still airing on NBC 10 Boston.

As for the other shows, they will be shown on TV38.

Last I checked, they're the "New England" Patriots, NOT the "Boston" Patriots. The stadium they play in is halfway between Boston and Providence. According to Zap2It.com, WJAR is showing parade coverage but now WLNE or WPRI. But it's good that at least one RI station is covering the parade, since the entire state is within close proximity of Gillette Stadium.

NESN, NBC Sports Boston, and NECN are also carrying the parade coverage, and those channels are available in all of New England (unless you live in Fairfield County, CT).
 
And it will be streamed on the Patriots website as well.
 
The parade was also on ESPN, according to a quick check on my lunch break.
