> I would strongly disagree that they weren't building to that game. Here is
> part of Jim McKay's introduction:

There's a lot I don't remember 36 years later, like what time the US-USSR
game actually started. If the second game started at 8:45, then the first
game must have been very late, if not over, when ABC went on the air, and
the Miracle was possible, if not certain. If the Soviets had been up 6-1
when the telecast started, I don't think McKay would have expressed that
same excitement. Perhaps ABC would have shown more skiers and less hockey.
We'll never know, which is fine with me.
