But the bastards can and will cut away from college hockey to air an NBA 
game...even the St.Lawrence vs. BU triple-overtime slugfest in the NCAA 
Semifinals a few years ago.   If it were college BASKETBALL I bet they 
wouldn't have cut away...

I was furious...but fortunately I managed to find the game being webcast on 
broadcast.com and got to at least listen to the last 10 or 12 minutes of 
the game.
