TV ups and downs
We’re going to move quickly today because, well, because we have a lot to do.
We have enjoyed a lot of the back and forth with some of you about the NBA Summer League.
Yes, maybe I need to get off the couch more if I watched a significant amount of NBA Summer League. (In my defense, the summer TV options other than random Game Shows has been abysmal. The choices most nights are “Hey is Law & Order on TNT or is Modern Family on USA” or the Braves or in some cases, the NBA Summer League.)
Yes, maybe our longing for the Fall – or as Big Boned Vader likes to ask, “Is it September yet?” – has left us reaching beyond our skies for sports viewing. (Side question: Is it us or has this been the least amount of those great SEC football replays we used to fill July with. Yes we saw the Tennessee-FSU BCS game on last night. And yes, it’s hard to believe that game was almost 20 years ago. Side question to the side question: How different is the fortune of Tennessee football in general and Phil Fulmer in particular if Tennessee doesn’t give the SEC championship game away to LSU in 2001. It would have set up another likely shot at a Natty, and it would have at least slowed the roll of some young up-and-comer at LSU named Nick Saban. Thoughts?)
