Local reaction ranged from indifference to indignation and disgust, even in this rider business at the expense of cable subscribers. "We're not going to affect us much more than cable, DirecTV and a sport package, so you can find whatever," said a server service in Seagrape Cafe in Fairfield. "We also Yankee fans more and the fans of college football today, so there is little interest in the CNT. "
Seagrape Chief Don Trumbull added by saying: "... I understand what's happening, they seem to have their own agendas and barking at each other They should stop this and let people enjoy their sport
Standing beside him, Geoff Bagshaw, 31, of Boston, said: ". I'm not in this area, but if it were, would be broken because I could not watch the game and promises to be a great pitcher duel "
Archie Moore in Fairfield, Gary Goldfield, 50, of Bridgeport, said: "I'm not worried about not having these channels I can get what I want in an affiliate WTIC If I could, I'd be very worried .. "
"If what Cablevision says is true, then it is the greed of FOX," continued Goldfield. "The channels are taken hostage by cable cable companies are caught in -. and satellite service providers and others, too"
Sitting near a cabin with a child under 4 years old, Ryan, Martin Blake, 41, of Weston said he intended to watch Game 1.

Ryan added: "Whenever I see my Nick Jr., we're fine."
