[NU Sports] BTN for Saturday

[johnadeg at comcast.net]

I've had the experience of having BTN only showing one game but when you go to it, they tell you where the other games are being shown.  Sort of Rube Goldberg but whatever works.  For you people who don't remember Goldberg, think of it s punched card programs whee you had to put in a blank card to get it to run but no one could explain it.
