The TSN PBA telecast...What happened?
« on: February 14, 2004, 10:28:39 PM »
I was watching the PBA today on TSN (Canada's ESPN) and they lost the feed or something just as Smith went up in the tenth for his second shot!  I know what happened, he won but what I am curious about is what did TSN do when they came back on the air?  I waited and waited...must have been ten minutes and the screen was black.  I don't think they showed the shot or even came on air to give the results!  Any of my Canadian buddies know what happened???

I am unsure of what happened on the east coast but here on the west coast,
we lost the feed too.

It was fine in the Northwest. If you're wondering about the second shot in the 10th, it was a great shot - a bit of a "swisher - Robert Smith style"
not his trademark boomer, but it was enough!

Judging by what time it was, I'm betting that they ran out of their satellite feed window.

Not over here on the "good" side of the state.

It went black about the end of the 3rd match and never came
back on.
