so i flip on sportscenter this morning, and what's the lead story? a regular season game between duke and virginia tech. it warrants top billing because it's such a HUUUGE story that Duke lost. wow. hey espn, it's their 4th loss in 7 games, they're not invincible, they are going to lose some conference road games. it's not groundbreaking.

anyway, i continue watching to see if there are any highlights of our game, but there aren't. no Pac-10 coverage AT ALL. now i realize our games on the west coast are ending right about the time the 10 PT sportscenter is starting, but nothing from the entire conference? does this always happen on Thursdays? i know ESPN had access to at least some footage because one of the "Top Plays" was from the Arizona-Oregon game. Two nba games on the night, no nhl, but it's still impossible to show any Pac-10 hoops highlights. geez.
