You think that's bad? I'm in Bowling Green, OH, and we get ABC from
Toledo. Well, the cable co. decided to totally pre-empt the game (no tape
delay, no nothing) for a stupid telethon! Hockey is very big around here,
too. I had to listen to "my" Penguins win on my car radio out in the
parking lot. I can just be thankful for a strong radio because being 230
miles from Pittsburgh, the reception usually isn't good at all. I can't
believe I picked it up during the middle of the day.
