Bear with me for a moment, I need to preface my rant if I may;
So there I was this morning, all set to spend some quality time in front of the `toob with one of the few automotive-related programs I can actually stomach,
Hot Rod TV. As I flip over to ESPN2 to watch the program, I find that once again, ESPN2 in their inimitable wisdom has yet again preempted programming (a "new" episode, mind you) for, of all things......a fishing tournament.
Mind you, I have absolutely nothing against fish, fishing, or fishermen for that matter, but ESPN2 has taken preemptive programming to an all new level.
"Enough is enough" I say to myself...so I hop over to the ESPN2 website to voice my displeasure with said programing antics. Of course, I was polite and professional, albeit somewhat sarcastic.
Along those lines, I concluded my little email rant with "
Dare I ask 'what's coming on next?'...let me guess...left-handed Bulgarian womens blindfolded inverted underwater speed basket weaving?" (that was the most inane make-believe "sport" I could conjur up)
Fast-forward to this evening...again I find myself perusing the cable program guide when something..."odd"...catches my eye. I scroll back a few channels to find myself once again on ESPN2, and I honestly could not believe my eyes when I saw the program that was airing...
"National
Rock Paper Scissors Championships"
Don't believe me? Check the
ESPN Program Guide for yourself. (9:00 p.m.)
I'm just waiting for Rod Serling to show up.
