[NU Sports] Softball, Big Ten Network rant

[Jonathan Hodges]

Even here in Chicago there were some rants on sports radio yesterday about
CBS carrying the MSU game instead of the Marquette game.

The nice thing is that CBS carries all of the games online (assuming you
have a computer and high speed internet connection), although I believe they
"blackout" the game that is carried over the air locally - which would
create issues if CBS TV switched away from your game.
