Portland Trail Blazers Game Six: People at Channel Eight Should Be FLOGGED
So I had to watch this game while watching the door to Huber's, Portland's Oldest Restaurant, at work. The game was on local TV, channel Eight.
I know the Timberwolves took a big lead, but big deal, Portland has taken road leads on their last two road games. I was sure Portland would battle their way back in to win.
Except the last TWO MINUTES of the game was BLOCKED OUT by a BLUE SCREEN that OCCASIONALLY showed you a SECOND of PLAY.
Then they cut back to the game when Portland had won.
I never got to SEE HOW Portland WON, because CHANNEL EIGHT had their WIRES screwed up.
Whoever worked that game, they should not lose their job...but they should be FLOGGED. FLOGGED in public would be PREFERABLE.
How do you air the whole game except the last two minutes?
That's like some sports lover's wife, or child, turning the game off as the last second shot is thrown into the air, saying, "You never spend enough time with me..." only WORSE.
Channel Eight...who has their weather man cough during the live broadcast, so no one knows what the weather will be, Channel Eight...who has their broadcasters make bad jokes, Channel Eight...who tells people their reporters are LIVE on the scene...but really they are just standing on a street corner near the incident @ 11:00 at night.
Channel Eight...get your ACT TOGETHER.
Because you had a CONTRACT with the BLAZERS to BROADCAST the GAME.
Instead, you lost the last TWO MINUTES with TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES.
A public FLOGGING is in order...how else to ENSURE this DISASTER will never HAPPEN AGAIN?????
Either way, Blazers win against the Timberwolves, which I had no doubt would happen. Brandon Roy hit the game winner, and the Timberwolves missed THREE CONSECUTIVE SHOTS to tie the game.
T-Wolves...YOU SUCK.
P-Town...Long way to go.
Channel Eight...a public FLOGGING is in order.
Go Blazers!
