This is disgraceful. Fed/Rod not being televised. I sent a nasty letter to MSG+, who has taken over FSN's broadcast.
Both MSG and MSG+ are showing the same hockey game.

Are they going to be replaying it on the Tennis Channel by any chance? They aired Monday's & Tuesday's matches on there even though their schedule said otherwise.

I don't know where else to put this... looks like even the players are upset with Fox Sports because of the lack of coverage, in Miami itself.

Coverage of Miami on Fox Sports Net has proven frustrating for US viewers, thanks to the channel's limited and rigid broadcasting windows as well as an affiliate-distributed organization that has created inconsistency in the timing and amount of coverage available from area to area.
Even players competing in Miami have frequently been unable to watch the tennis unless they're on the tournament grounds.
Jankovic will go into the final against Serena Williams without having seen how Williams played in her three-set semifinal against Kuznetsova on Thursday afternoon. "For some reason, in my hotel, they don't show Fox Sports or something," Jankovic told reporters after winning her own semifinal match later in the evening.
Kuznetsova, too, went into her encounter against Williams without watching her unexpected 6-2, 6-0 destruction of top seed Henin in the previous round. "I didn't see anything," said Kuznetsova, who had to settle for reality TV a more contrived kind. "I guess she played unbelievable, but I was in my hotel watching Next Top Model or whatever I was watching. I was not watching any of tennis. It was not on TV. I wanted to watch. It was interesting."
Roddick's upset of Federer was tape-delayed till 10:00 pm because of a baseball game, and Nadal went online to track the match from his hotel on Thursday evening. "I followed the match on the internet before going for dinner," he wrote in his blog for TENNIS.com this week.

LOL, oh my god, I'm gonna throw the damn remote threw the TV!!! It is so much easier in the fall when I'm a football fan and during that time the US Open has decent coverage with some HD matches. I guess I take for granted the massive amount of football coverage here and when switching gears I get very disappointed throughout the year.
And hey lets forget about tennis until the French, because Americans have short attention spans and don't want to see clay courters grinding in Europe.
And if Wimbledon isn't done in HD this year, I'm gonna go watch the bloody thing in person in 2009!

So much for building a tennis fan base in the U.S. Add to that throwing money at developing juniors instead of helping re-surface courts for worker-bee tennis fanatics like myself, and we are truly farked.
