They did this crap in a 1 point NCAA tourney basketball game. Un-fricking-believable.


Remeber sending an email to the station manager asking why the hell they thought that was a good idea. The response was that Young and the restless (or some soap) was a national landmark that CBS offers.

I get that poker might be on the national CBS feed, but i'd think in baton rouge more people would wanna watch SEC football than poker. Even if it is a crummy matchup

Gets the ratings up on this sorry excuse for a station? Honestly, on a 50" I'm having trouble reading the bottomline at times.

yes, and i have direcTv so i am out of luck on this game. watching nebraska-UM now until Moo U and the lil piggies play

my DTV gets all my local channels from BR. and no i do not get the game plan package so 621 does not work.

Me too...but I did notice that LSU is apparently spotting Ole Miss 10 points and giving them the ball first.

Better tell them to uncross Eatel's while they are at it. Also tell WAFB to retract their not that the rest of the game will be on 16, WBXH
