No. It can't get the air time in TV here because we need commercials every 12 min or the network will go broke. There is a huge cash flow from TV to the sports team, to pay those ridiculous salaries. I'd like to see it make a growth into the sports market here, but the people who control the direction can't seem to make $$$ doing it using the same plan that is in effect for Baseball, Basketball and US-Football. For US Football games in person you will see that little prick with the red hat on holding up the game so the f'n station can run a commercial series. When a team has a rhythm going this can wreck it, IMO. Stephen Russell DBA / .Net Developer Memphis TN 38115 901.246-0159 "Our scientific power has outrun our spiritual power.
