I know that....believe me, I can sense sarcasm. But my problem was they squeezed it in between the Royals highlights and a commercial, and they didn't have a pitcure up until almost midnight. Terrible. As if their baseball coverage wasn't horrible....their stories about soccer in Iraq are front and center but this poor guy ends up with nothing and dies way too early, and nothing. Terrible.
