I'm sure they are, they have no reason not to want it on TV. I have no idea who the **** would want to listen to the game on the radio, that's seriously the gayest thing I've heard all day. I'd rather just turn off the sportscenter and the planet for a couple days.

I think it makes perfect sense, the NFL likes to get as many games on TV as possible, I would not be surprised if ESPN inquired about it. Friday would be the best day all weekend to actually turn this into a TV game, but I think pulling it all off in 1 day's time is not something I have a lot of faith in them doing, we'll see.

Wouldn't it be a bad idea for ESPN to do this game? The viewership will be down because
A) It's not that great of a matchup
B) Normal viewers of football at the normal times may not know about the game/will have other plans
C) To get their crews ready, cancel previous programming, pay off CBS, and sustain a weaker viewership, wouldn't they incure a loss from all this?

Never give up. Never surrender.

Wouldn't it be ironic, though, if the sunday night crew missed our game because of the other hurricane and then got this one.

Weird stuff.

I hope something happens and CBS gets screwed over to the max. The station is Wichita is blaming the NFL but that sounds fishy to me.

It's not, the NFL is really really strict about this stuff.

ESPN has a COLLEGE FOOTBALL game at 7 pm central time tomorrow.
