It's nice to see an NU presence at the network - and
I'm sure there are tons more behind the cameras as
well.

It'll be nice (well, maybe not :) ) to see more than
the annual one "let's do PSU vs. NU so we get both out
of the way at once" ESPN2 mid Saturday hoops game this
year.

Hopefully the push of hoops fans in Indiana, Illinois
and Michigan will get some deal worked out for the BTN
on cable. I think everyone's getting sick of the games
these megacorps are playing - Comcast is flooding the
Phoenix market with ads to call and demand that "The
Mountain" be part of the basic package ... Arizona
doesn't even have a Mountain West team! Surely they
can't demand Phoenix do what they refuse to do in a
state that actually HAS one or two schools on the
network!:)

Oh well - I know it sucks for a lot of the midwest at
this time and hopefully that gets changed soon with
all these media games. But as a Cats fan in Arizona,
this may well be the best thing to come along since
sliced cheese (that's the Wisconsin version and I've
never been much for bread :) ).

Big game this weekend - GO CATS!!!
