WVA Derby preempted by Barry Bonds

[Merlinsky]

My TV Guide never shows it on the schedule for ESPN however we do get the TVG feed on Sports South for a couple hours and The Hambletonian is on NBC at 3:30.

I still despise Bonds so if it's okay I'll blame him for this and global warming while I'm at it.

I think there was also some confusion as to the time of the race. . . I think ESPN had their coverage scheduled from 4-5 but the race doesn't go off until 5:45. . .

Brisnet's web page gives the reason for the preemption as Bond's homerun persuit. ESPN's tv listings shows Hall of fame inductions. The fact remains the race should be shown.
