It's pretty hilarious... from SMith:
"So Jose didn’t go on the trip this week, he and his wife are sitting around the house and all of sudden one of them realizes, ‘hey, I don’t think we can watch the Washington game because of this TV problem I read about in Doug Smith’s blog.’
(Okay, maybe I made up that Doug Smith’s blog part).
‘Whatever are we going to do.’
He gets his wife to call the Evil Cable Provider and finds out that, yes, because he only gives Rogers a billion dollars a month for cable, internet and phone, the Evil Cable Provider is squeezing TSN for money and haven’t picked up a network that the majority of the country can see.
(Okay, maybe it’s not a billion but go check your Evil Cable Provider bill).
Off he trundles to the ACC to watch the game in the so-so comfort of the team’s locker room (it’s nice, but it’s not home). Too bad he didn’t know some of us were down the street watching it, that would have been a hoot.
Someone asked Jose yesterday whether he used his name in the call, thinking Evil Cable Provider might have done something had it known someone of his stature was looking for some resolution to this idiotic conflict.
Yeah, right. You think Evil Cable Provider, or TSN, or Maple Leaf Sports, gives a hoot? Nah, neither do I. "
