TV Coverage Question
Can anyone explain, or even really know how the Networks or the League choose how games are distributed for TV markets? I ask because I used to live in St. Louis, and I could swear I got to watch Chiefs games there. Yet we don't get the Rams games here.

Well
I’m not sure ultimately how they decide, but I assume there’s a fair amount of chiefs fans in StL because of the fact that the rams weren’t there until 1995, so the great early 90s I’d guess a ton of people followed and rooted for the chiefs as the home state team.
Meanwhile people in KC have no tie to the rams really.
Chiefs games are actually almost never shown in STL
It’s a huge bummer when I’m at home. Luckily I go to Mizzou and they always show the games in Columbia.
