Second half rant
Blog #1, second half
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. -- OK, I've attempted to talk to the local ESPN producer, a guy who is not interested in talking to a reporter during the game. Something about a job to do. Understandable.
Now I'm being told by folks back in Fresno that the game isn't being shown on satellite TV either. I'm getting mixed reports. Maybe Dish Network and DirecTV are showing different games. Who knows. It's definitely a programming error on someone's part. I'm told the decision was made in Bristol, Conn., though, so don't yell at anyone at the cable company. They want you watching their ESPN2 as much as you want it.
Fresno State athletic director Thomas Boeh says it's a matter of someone flipping a switch in Bristol. I cannot varify that, orThomas Boeh's technical knowlege of the television industry. If they ever do flip the switch, someone tell me so I can stop blogging about. Go figure, the first time the Fresno State women get on ESPN, they can't really get on ESPN.
Game update: Baylor 73, Fresno State 52. Time remaining: 8:35, second half.
Dogs still missing a lot of easy shots.

They never did "flip the switch", Matt. I hope that Mr. Boeh takes a long and hard look at Mr. Ladwig. And I hope comcast takes a long and hard look at itself.
