 I've always imagined American promotion-relegation being done on a regional basis--say have your top two divisions split along East-West lines, promote the 2nd Division East/West winners and relegate the bottom of 1st Division East/West. Maybe even extend it another division or two and split it into four regions, with E1 and E2 winners playing to move up. Only way it could work IMO.

I feel like I really need to start watching Keith Olbermann's show now.
It's basically the same format he had for Countdown--complete with Worst Person in the (Sports) World--but without the countdown format. It's so much more watchable (and I generally agreed with Olbermann's MSNBC rants). Tennis is throwing the broadcast schedule off though; usually the live broadcast is at 11 with a rebroadcast immediately afterward, but the last couple nights it's been shuffled over to ESPNNews. My DVR is turning into Olbermann Roulette, trying to figure out which of the five recordings labeled "Olbermann" is actually Keith :v:

Reece Davis is extremely good at his job and deserves a lot better than what they've saddled him with. In general I think college football is the thing ESPN handles the best (and they're much better at it than any of their competitors), but May and Holtz are probably the worst parts of it.
In The System College Gameday is basically presented as the best thing about college football (that and the rise of Ziggy Ansah), and a lot of the credit goes to how good Rece Davis is at his job.

He's not on college gameday so that's pretty impressive! I assume they were talking about Chris Fowler, who is also really good at his job.
My bad :v:

Up here between Weirton/Steubenville and Wheeling we get all the Pittsburgh channels but while Root Sports and PCNC are in the actual cable listings, all the network stations are back in the 190s and 200s. Odd considering for years you could pick up Steubenville's WTOV-9 in Pittsburgh on channel 9.

Huntington is really weird too. Maybe it was just the hotel we stayed at, but we got Root Sports but not Cincy or Columbus, which it's closer to.
Might be the hotel, I lived there for years and basic cable had FSN Pitt and Ohio. But obviously it's been a while since I checked if I'm calling it FSN Pittsburgh :v:
