Im afraid your going to get Texas VS. Texas A&M.  If you will PM me Ill give you my Username and password to listen to it on the web via www.hogwired.com on my Razorzone account.  Also if you go to hogwired.com they give active duty FREE access to the games via the web!  Send an email to the athletic dept and they will activate a FREE account for you.

Just looked on the AFRTS schedule and the game is on AFN.

I remember being a victim to the limited shows on AFN, I don't miss those days.
I looked for Germany and saw TEXAS VS. TEXAS A&M! LOL ;D

AFN sucks and I was so sad that I was missing Gameday when they were at Arkansas.  Then some great Hog fan posted this.

I was skeptical at first but after I downloaded it from download.com I discovered that it WAS freeware and it doesn't ask for any type of personal information.  Once I got it downloaded I found out I had ESPN, CBS, NBC, and FOX on a live feed to my computer in my room.  REAL COMMERCIALS!!!  The video quality is also very good on most channels.

I love the AFN propganda comercials! I miss them sooo much.
If it turns, burns, banks or rolls, crew chiefs made it happen.

4 years in Japan was enough for me and I am very happy that I have another option for my year here in Korea.

I remember watching the Superbowl in '99 at about 3:00am and everyone was up acting like it was 2:30 in the afternoon.  They'd break to AFN commercials about the history of some commander somewhere.  Classic stuff.

Let me explain how this works...  If I have four really good meals in a row, I am thankful for that and I do not withhold my thanks for fear that the next meal might suck.

I know what you mean.  I was in PACAF from 98-02.

I loved the one they used to show in Korea where two guys were playing golf and some hot chick joins them.  One guy says,  "if her golf game is as good as she looks, we are in serious trouble."  The other guy says, "Hey watch it buddy, that is sexual harassment."" As if any guy would ever say that.  LOL.

My favorite in Germany were the "Don't look overtly amercian" commercials.  Stupid thing was that on EVERY license plate, of EVERY American car, it read USA in black letters! LMAO!

Pork Twain

In Japan we had a big Y on our plates.  Of course Americans tend to stand out a little more in Japan.

AFN still have those stupid commercials? I used to visit my sister when she was stationed in Erlangen, and those commercials really started to become annoying.
