- You call it 'a need for ESPN II'. Lucrative college basketball deals
- were signed way before current NHL pact. All ESPN is doing is honoring
- college ball comittments and trying not piss off its sponsors too much.
- It was schocking to see Kings-Rangers game in prime-time Saturday night
- which is usually a big college ball night on ESPN. You think you're getting
- less hockey on ESPN now,wait till ESPN's coverage of NCAA's March Madness
- in a month or so. You'll be lucky to hear a word hockey on ESPN's SportsCenter...:-)
