Your latest evidence that the people who run the Pac-10 are stupid

Fair warning.

106242356

The Pac-10 basketball season kicks off today with a quartet of games on a funky Friday/Sunday schedule because of New Year's Day. While I'm working on a mini Pac-10 preview post for tonight, I just had to put this out there:

The people who run the Pac-10 are stupid.

Do you realize that you cannot watch No. 17 Arizona State at undefeated Stanford tonight, no matter what cable package you have? Additionally, most likely the only game you'll be able to catch is UCLA at Oregon State, which is being broadcast nationally by FSN? Boy, that should be a great freaking game.

You actually can watch USC at Oregon right now if you have Comcast Sports Net Northwest, and you can watch Arizona at Cal at 5:30 p.m. on FCS. But that's beside the point: Why does this conference make it so damn tough to watch its games? It's a joke.

FSN

I get that having an entire network to yourself, other than one ACC game a week, is useful, but the network only carries ONE national game every Thursday, of the four or five games. That’s ridiculous. Especially when the first THREE national Thursday/Friday games feature Oregon State. The network has nothing else happening. WHY THE HELL DON"T THEY COVER MORE LIVE SPORTS! Instead they rely crappy poker, highlight shows, countdown shows, and “In my own words”.

FSN

Fox Sucks Network. They are sucking up to Obama by putting the Beavers on all the time… morons.

Perhaps this will get better with the Pac X commish retiring. It cannot get worse, can it?

The good news

It turned out to be a horrible game. Think Stanford could have used the Lopez twins against Jeff Pendergraph tonight?
