The NFL didn't even have a chance to ignore time zones and weather in this case. The scheduling decision had been made years earlier, when they started scheduling one of the conference championship games for a prime-time slot, and stuck to a strict rotation so that CBS and Fox would get an equal number of prime-time championship games. For the 2008 season, it was CBS's turn to have the AFC championship in prime time, period. -- Jim Ellwanger <train...@ellwanger.tv> <http://www.ellwanger.tv> --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ TV or Not TV ....
