Final Four
NCAA 2008 LogoWow, so it doesn't sound like we missed anything good in the NCAA National Championship Game. Nope. Nothing at all.

Argh!

I guess the online ESPN Play By Play is almost as exciting:

0:09 Mario Chalmers made Three Point Jumper. 63-63

Whhoooooo! Move over Dick Vitale! Columns of text and numbers are awesome, baby!

But seriously, in the final seconds of play Mario Chalmers makes a three point shot to send the championship game into overtime for the first time in a decade, then Kansas goes on to stun the pundits with a win over Memphis? And I don't have a sports channel on my satellite television?

I've got eighty-three channels of reruns of The Nanny and Married with Children (seriously) but I can't get a sports highlight to save my life.

Well, other than the entire channel devoted to the NBA (which, honestly, is a bit much).

And ... today is the home opener for the Red Sox, where they're getting their World Series rings, and I don't have a SportsCenter to catch a clip.

Gosh, it's so difficult to be me ...

It was one insane game.

I am a die hard Kansas fan. I gave up when we were 9 points behind but then, you can't rule anything out, Super Mario made that amazing shot to help us win it all.

Right now my main concern is our coach who could be leaving. OSU is waving millions of dollars in his face. Hopefully he'll stick with KU.

You could have watched the game on cbs.sportsline.com. It was as exciting as watching it on TV.

Have fun on your trip to Cario. Safe trip.

I just received this email confirming your latest info:

Thank you for writing.

Our ESPN service is now available through ART.

Sincerely,
ESPN Viewer Response

Have friends who work in ART and will update you asap regarding subscription info...believe me, i feel your pain.It really is a horrible time to have this happen and whats more frustrating is Orbit's lack of information and notification to its subscribers.

Just contacted the dudes at ART. They said ESPN has been added since the first of April

Getting ART is pretty easy and for those who already have it, here's the detail for ESPN
Freq. 10930, Vertical, 3/4, 27500 and it's on NILESAT.

Enjoy

Shoot. Sorry guys.

It's actually Horizontal and not Vertical and it's under the name ESPN.
