I didn't really care as the redskins were winning, but I was quite peturbed that CBS pulled a Heidi and went to the Ravens game with 3 minutes to go in the Eagles game. I still can't believe we missed that ending.

It all depends on which TV market you are in. The networks are contractually obligated to show their "home" team's games in their entirety. It could be the most exciting finish in the history of sports, but if your home team's game starts, they will switch to that. On the flip side, if a game is a runaway blowout, no one will see the ending except for the two home markets.
