Giants-Vikings Game.With just minutes to go before the 7:20 p.m. game time, the television rights to tonight's Giants-Vikings game remained mired in a standoff between FOX Sports, the National Football League and ESPN.
It remains unclear whether the game will appear at all in the Hartford and New Haven markets. Attorney General Richard Blumenthal prodded the NFL to take action to assure the game would be broadcast in Connecticut.
Later, the NFL and Blumenthal were trying to broker a solution between FOX Sports and ESPN, Blumehthal said, and Blumenthal appealed to ESPN to allow FOX Sports to show the game in Connecticut.
Blumenthal said late this afternoon that he was "exploring legal options," but he did not elaborate. Earlier in the day, he sent a letter to the NFL, imploring the league to allow FOX to show the game in Connecticut.
