If you are a grandparent of someone that is in the 3rd/4th match, or 5th/6th match you're all out of luck because PCN will not show any of their matches. 

PCN did a disservice to the amount of talent and depth that the PIAA championships have by only showing the finals. Going back in time before states seeded the top four district champions, PCN would miss matches like Sasso/Pletcher or Kemmerer/Hidlay which happened in the quarters. So seniors were missing a lot of superstars because PCN did not provide proper coverage. 

PCN did a disservice to its wrestling audience by selling out like so many do for the all mighty dollar.

Facts be dammed!  I'm right you're wrong...

Nope not at all. My experience in this area is different from yours so my opinion doesn’t gel with yours.

Seems like there's a bigger population of socialists in the wrestling community than I would have guessed.

Absolutely which is why I drove to their headquarters to ask why this happened.

Then let's put it back on PCN so our seniors in the state of Pennsylvania can watch 26 matches out of the whole tournament, while they pay for their cable bill to enjoy their PCN. But if they have a dish network like DirectTv they should figure out how to stream it because dish networks do not provide PCN.

You already know this from time spent in the, 'Non Wrestling Topic' forum.

My “area” has to do with years of sitting in sec 120 at the Giant Center and listening to what the nations greatest generation has to say about this. I get it you’re an authority figure here and I am not.

Like you said they expanded the market right? They didn't make enough? They preach all this grow wrestling and they don't share or play nice. They sued a former employee and tried to ruin his lively hood they're trashy business people, not good faith wrestling folks. And that's fine but let's ALL stop pretending.

I think we're arguing about two separate topics. You have a gripe with Flo. 

In my opinion, since Flo started streaming the PIAA tournament it has received more viewers and allowed people from all over the country to follow some of the best wrestlers in the country. Flo even will promote the tournament by posting ads on their social media pages and headlining it on their website. Seems like this is holding back the growth of wrestling. 

If you do not like Flo, I can see that argument but to say PCN was better for the PIAA wrestling tournament is a fallacy.

Vak I’ve detected different personalities over time but this one quite frankly confuses me.

Maybe we can save our seniors some money by cancelling their cable and having them sign up for Fubo or something + one month of FloFootball

And Flo's version of the finals sucks compared to PCN..

Like I said in a previous post let PCN cover the PIAA state tournament so we can watch the finals. I would love to see how they handle AA, AAA, and girls finals all happening simultaneously. I am sure PCNs version would be much better. I am not saying that Flo is perfect but it is hard to argue that PCN did a better job covering states.
