Thank Roberts... For Versus?


Interesting scenario on Saturday for NBC. The Red Wings and Stars play a game tomorrow at 1:30 PM Eastern at Joe Lewis Arena.  At 4:30, NBC is set to televise the Preakness Stakes.  

What this means is that if the Wings and Stars game runs even a little late, the NBC network will switch over from Detroit.... to horse racing.  Yes, horse racing, the same joke of a sport that has gotten to innocent young animals killed in the last 12 months.

So, if the hockey game continues to 4:30 or later, NBC will leave and go to horse racing.

Then, the broadcast will be picked up by Versus.  

Versus sucks.  But at least I can watch the game.

That'll be the last time you hear anybody praise Versucks.
