NBC Snubs NHL ... Again

Ice dancing on NBC, while the USA/Canada game on the 21st goes to MSNBC. As a non-cable-having sports fan, this really pisses me off, although I can completely see why they're doing it ($$$). The one good thing, for me at least, is no Mike Milbury that night.

Any night without Mike Milbury is a good night. I'd even take Pierre Maguire or Mike Toth over him.

As for your no-cable issues, maybe you could hunt down a web stream of the game?

I'm none too happy about it myself, though luckily I do have cable (still pisses me off to take a golden opportunity for the sport away). Like Parker said, you're best bet is to look for a live stream, though word is NBC is going to be cracking down hard on anything like that, to protect its investment I'm sure.

:lol: Yeah, no kidding. Sadly my sports-lovin' friends don't have cable, and my cable-havin' friends don't love sports. Clearly I'm doing something wrong with my life.

There's a reason that they built bars, Pat. I'm sure you could get someone to put it on for you.
