but it's not a final that is important enough to pre-empt --America's longest running (with implications as being America's most important) television show. --NBC's "flagship" program. (HA!). --On their most watched platform (broadcast) vs. any number of NBC owned cable/sports channels.

1. There are NO FINALS, every gave counts - in this case a THREE WAY race with NINE games to go

As for Commie propaganda - no, this is not a loss unless you feel the need to be indoctrinated and/or insulted

My perspective —for the sake of argument—is of NBC’s. They apparently don’t think much of their flagship.
