Nobody cares about Pre-Season Football. Thursday, Aug 28 at 1:54 PM j wrote ...that's awesome that there's actually more than one person upset about the late showing of big brother! thanks bb fans...you made me laugh! Thursday, Aug 28 at 11:50 AM Me wrote ...Come on, most people have to work tomorrow and having to stay up that late anyways to watch BB10, I don't think so. Use sports stations to air the games, not regular tv show time especially on a live double eviction night. If people are real sports fan then they should already have the sports channels. Leave regular tv time for the actual shows Thursday, Aug 28 at 11:11 AM Steve Fuller wrote ...Almost game time...yippee. All you cry baby Big Brother & Obama fans are so sad...get a life!

Wednesday, Aug 27 at 1:37 PM Mike wrote ...WSBT doesn't care what people think, their going to do what ever they want to do. Just because some big wig there want to see the "BEARS" loose again their going to put everybody else out and ignore their feelings. I think we sould all lodge complaints with CBS! Maybe then WSBT will listen to what the people want! Who wants to watch the "STINKING BEARS"??? Wednesday, Aug 27 at 11:30 AM Jen wrote ...Dear WSBT: Don't you realize that Thursday's episode of Big Brother is going to be a live double eviction? It's going to be an action packed episode that I don't want to miss. Thanks for putting a kink into my Thursday night plans. I guess I'll have to find a place online to watch the show. So for any of you hard core fans out there, you should be able to find a link to watch the show live over at jokersupdates.com.

Wednesday, Aug 27 at 3:27 AM Dave wrote ...I have to agree, the Bears on SBT2, leave BB 10 alone. It can't be that hard.... Tuesday, Aug 26 at 9:09 PM Anonymous wrote ...ENough all aread webt. If you can put the bears game on sbt2 for the demo convention, run the whole game on sbt. Big brother is a big show that night. I should not have to use the internet to get the results. It is not the same as watching the show., You do this every year. I am suprise that Cbs dosn't go after you for pre empting the same programs all the time. SBT is running reruns of reruns of Dr Phil and Oprah. Give us Big brother fans a chance to see our show at the regular time.

Tuesday, Aug 26 at 5:24 PM Anonymous wrote ...Hahah! I love it WSBT! Did you all not realize that Mr Barack Obama was going to give his speech. Not only am I mad you're pre-empting BB, but now you're going to cut short the bears game. make up your mind. (You know, you wouldn't have this problem if you just put Da Bears on 22.2.)

Monday, Aug 25 at 5:43 PM Anonymous wrote ...here we go again. yet another reason why WSBT sucks. pre-empting Big Brother for the Bears. you know, PUT the Bears on SBT2 and leave Big Brother alone.

Would like to know why the Bears game was on SBT2 and 22.1? That made no sense at all.
