did the commentaters mention how classless it was for missst to jack up a 3 up 32 pts with just a few seconds left in the game rather than just dribble out the clock?

erm...not quite sure what you guys are complaining about...but I had a chunk on the total of that game which didn't hit until the last 20 seconds. I was happy they left it on.

What pisses me off is that I have paid for the NCAA premium package, and I can't watch the jayhawks because they are broadcasting the UAB game on 2 channels. Now that is a complete crock of shit.

Here in the Midwest, we are having to watch the last 3 minutes of an absolute drubbing by KU, opposed to a one point game with 2 minutes left (UAB-Wash). This is asinine at best. Get a clue CBS, not even the Jayhawk fans would mind a cutaway right now. I can't believe this horrible coverage!!

again...if you want to choose your game, then buy the package...but, for those of us who shell out the cash, let us watch whatever game we want.

if im not mistaken, the package is only available to directv subscribers and not digital cable customers. i could be wrong though. but i think mega march madness is like nfl sunday ticket- exclusive to directv

i think you are right. my problem with CBS is that even if you buy the package so that you can see all the games, they switch them around mid-game. i think it is bs that they take your money then arbitrarily switch the games around.

I agree, Howie, I should shell out the money for the package, but exactly what you eluded to is what makes me so mad. I have seen them break away from games before. It is just the inconsistency that bothers me, especially at crucial times (for me, at least). They either need to NEVER break away and keep it to the regional game scheduled OR always break away when one game is tight at the end and the other is a blowout. That would be fair to everyone involved. That way people would know exactly what to expect.

I agree. I'm watching my Bearcats havin a tough time with the billies from east tennessee when cbs cuts away to some other game. The patrons of the establishment I was at in North Cincinnati were not to happy when cbs cut away towards the end of the game. It's really kinda neat what happens to the picture when a beer bottle hits a plasma screen.

What ever happened to the inscreen shots where you can watch two games?

:lol: :lol: :lol:

I imagine it was funny to everyone except the owner of the plasma!!!

I completely agree, they should at the very least do a split screen and leave the originally programmed game on the screen.
