Our internet provider is Time Warner but you also have to have their cable service to get ESPN3.  Taint worth it.

Same here in Milwaukee, WI. It says, "Exclusive". Does that mean we can't see it? I'd gladly pay.

I have TW cable and, so, called to order gameplan for today.  But was told that they aren't showing the 'Cats.  I'm in L.A.

My brother in Cleveland  has gameplan and same thing--no 'Cats on TV.

That's where I stand. Watching would be great, but I love what I'm hearing.

Just to clear up any confusion: The game was never slated to be on GamePlan -- (Exclusive) means it is an ESPN3 exclusive production (i.e. it doesn't air anywhere else).

Those with Time Warner Cable (TV) service and RoadRunner have access to the service, broadband-only subscribers do not.  Monroe, if you have TWC TV and wanted to order GamePlan, you should be able to stream ESPN3.  Worth checking.

Hope there's some help in there, if you have any specific questions let me know -- there are 4 more games coming up that will be available outside Ohio on the service, including next Saturday's Rutgers game (also an exclusive).

Thanks, anorris.  I got it via the 'net.  Maybe it's my processor but it came in choppy and watery.  It was like watching a 10% degraded picture.  I got the general idea but couldn't see specifics such as line play, sharp cuts etc.

I gather that we scored the last 37 points and thrashed 'em.  That much was clear.

I watched through a Comcast provider with no problems. Halftime caused a bit of a scare because coverage went to a generic halftime report with no mention of the game. By the time the third quarter got started, I panicked that I had lost it.

WIthout warning, a hot switch brought the game back just in time for the kick.

Quality of the broadcast was tolerable. My biggest issue is lack of volume. The ads are louder than the game, and the game is just barely loud enough.

All in all, this is the first season that I've been able to watch all three opening games in some form or another. Very happy about that.

Could be network connection, wifi signal if you're using wifi, computer processor, graphics card, or any number of other things, hard to say.  The second line is all that's important, though, right?!

Haha, yeah the halftimes on ESPN3 are shot in Bristol, and they'll update the one segment out of three with game highlights about three times over the course of the day to keep it up to date.  Those taped segments run at the halftime of every game on 3 (a total of 39 yesterday), and have to be super-generic as a result.

I echo your happiness -- though it kills me to not be able to see games live (I made it to 9 last season), I'll be able to see all 12 live in some fashion, and I love that.
