Thumbs up Thank you CBS

Kodos to CBS for making a deal with ESPN, so that ESPN could broadcast some of the games today when CBS had to go to war coverage. Much better than MTV.

Question The outrage!

Kodos was dealt to CBS? How could ESPN do this?! We need our Kodos right here! SAY IT AIN'T SO! Kodos, please clear this up! Tell us you haven't been traded to CBS for low-round draft pick! NOOOOOOOOO!!!!

Had to go to war coverage? Most of the reporting they did today during their continuous coverage was that nothing was happening. A much better solution would have been to break into coverage when something important did happen.

How Live can this war be?

Aren't they going to have to tape-delay the broadcast so the American viewer gets his war from 5-10PM every night during primetime? I think NBC will have a definate advantage because of their Live tape delayed experience with the Olympics.

What exactly is the time delay?(PrimeTime)

Just wait until the human interest stories start up. NBC will have the CLEAR advantage then.

Mmmmmmm,

Mega March Madness is good.

The only problem is that it is not supposed to show the game that is being broadcast by the local CBS affiliate. When CBS sent the afternoon games to ESPN, they did not pick up the same game, and it took directv about half an hour to turn that game on for me.

Spent 12 straight hours on the couch watching hoops yesterday. A very good day.
