ESPN yet again left the America's Cup rac they were covering live for
the money to be made from SportsCenter, and this time they missed an
exciting and unbelievable finish.  Actually, they may have returned
to the race, but I had changed the channel after they went to
SportsCenter.
 
I guess their *REAL* policy is:
ESPN will stay with a live event until its conclusion, unless we
consider it a less (i.e., non-money-making) sport.  Then we feel free
to switch to someting that will make money.
 
The NCAA Ice Hockey Committee really needs to get the television
rights back from ESPN.  I think PRIME would treat the games much
better (and certainly could treat them no worse).
