Bally Sports is unreliable. This is solely a Bally Sports issue. Cox has no control over it.
I watch sports delayed so that I can fast forward through commercials. I tried to record my team's game yesterday, but the Bally Sports broadcast was the wrong game. I tried recording today's game too. In place of the scheduled game, they broadcasted something called "The Icons: Leadership in Sports" for the first half hour. I continued fast forwarding after that through about an hour and 20 minutes of beach volleyball before it abruptly switched to my game during the volleyball match. (Someone at Bally Sports must have woke up from a nap). By then, it was the 6th inning of the game I wanted to watch.
