Why Doesn’t the NBA Switch Channels?
I want to thank you, CBS. Thanks for not allowing Channel 9 to telecast the May 17 Lakers game live so you could show it at 11:30. Thanks for giving a golf tournament precedence over the world’s greatest athletes. Thanks, on behalf of the players, for forcing back-to-back games on the weekend because you refuse to show them live during the week.
C’mon, NBA. Until you take your product elsewhere, you continue to be the Rodney Dangerfield of pro sports, and your fans continue to suffer.
