Football Games
I just love how Baltimore can claim to be a football city while blacking out practically every game that isn't the Ravens. When I checked the online TV guide last Wednesday night, it said that the Steelers-Bengals game would be shown on Sunday at 1 on CBS. But when I turned on CBS this afternoon, instead of the game, I saw an infomercial. WTF? It's one thing if the Ravens are playing at the same time and on the same network as the Steelers; I graciously acknowledge that the local team takes precedence. But when the Ravens aren't even playing til Monday night, it's just plain rude to deny fans of other teams the chance to watch their team. Moreover, it's rude to football fans in general, because most of us set aside our Sunday afternoons for the sole purpose of watching football. If you're not even going to show football, at least show something that's worth watching, instead of bombarding us with three hours of infomercials.
