The execs at NBC have lost it

It is a good thing the execs at NBC aren't brain surgeons, because there would be a lot of people who have passed on. NBC has decided to show ice dancing, women's speedskating & men's skiing (freestyle & GS), over the U.S. vs Canada men's preliminary-round hockey game. The game, set to be played, Sunday, Feb. 21, was one of the most anticipated events at this years games.
Instead, the game has been shifted to the NBC cable affiliate, MSNBC at 7 pm. Imagine how the NHL must feel. They cancel the annual all star game, so players could participate in the Olympics, and they don't even get national network coverage, of one of the marquee hockey matchups. The NHL currently has a contract with NBC to broadcast their regular season games, but the ass clowns at NBC won't show the game on its network, instead we get to watch ice dancing and speed skating. Brilliant move NBC.
The best thing for the Olympics and the NHL, is to get rid of the clowns at NBC. All I have to say is, I had better get MSNBC in HD, or I may hang myself. Thank you NBC!
