[NU Sports] BTN NU-NIU Coverage

[Roy Lamberton]

Comcast has it on channel 802 along the east coast, you have to buy the sports
tier outside of PA, but at least it is available.

The BTN obviously thinks NU only draws in Chicago, they forget that NU's largest
alumni groups are in New York, DC and LA. 

I also tried to answer one of their trivia questions with the correct answer
from the media guide - they say it's wrong. Doh
