At least I got the game. In year's past, CBS meant "regional coverage" which would have given me Fairfied vs. Iona or something.
Last week during Davidson, the announcers volume level was very low for a big chunk of the 2nd half, and I could barely hear them. It was blissful.

RE: the volume
I tried to synch the KUathleticsleanplayer broadcast with the game but it was about 20 seconds ahead of video. It was fun at first because I felt psychic knowing what was coming, but after a while it got old. That and the fact that it was not our prettiest game , I switched to Pandora Neil Young station and sang along to the game. Nothing anyone wants to hear, but I bet it was no worse than the game . . .

P.S. I was rooting for Marshall given the situation.

I don't get the CBS Sports Network, so I had to listen to the game on the RADIO! I felt like I was back in the Dark Ages!

I was happy to be in the dark ages with Max and Bob until Brian Hanni, The Great Nasalist, took Bob's place. Now I choose to be at the mercy of the TV commentators. It could be worse--Vitale could be announcing and I would have to watch with no sound. (Which may happen soon...)
