Small-market fan abuse alleged.
October 5, 2008 at 10:07 am by Eric SniderThe Rays and the Bucs are both on at 4 p.m. Adult men all around the Bay area are scrambling to set up the little TV next to the big TV. Picture-in-picture just won’t do. Then the decision: What game gets on the big TV. (For me, a no-brainer: Rays.)
Think if we lived in New York, and the Giants had a game and the Yankees had a playoff game, that the networks would schedule them for the same time? How ’bout the same scenario for the Red Sox and Patriots? Never, I tell ya, never!
The NFL had the Bucs/Broncos game on the schedule for a long time, but MLB apparently didn’t bother to look — more likely, they didn’t care. But let’s not let small-market fan abuse ruin the day. Here’s to watching two TVs at once, and two wins by local teams.
