I wonder how many times the Yankees and Red Sox played Sunday nights in that same time span.

And until last year they were irrelevant.

they keep playing well, they will get there.

beyond that though...since ESPN paid for the rights to show nation wide games, should they not be the ones to choose who they air? And I dont know about you, but when I run a business i want to maximize my own revenues, and the Yankees and red Sox do that for me.

I mean why does HNIC always show a Canadian based team?...cause of the name or because, you know, they will draw higher ratings thereby allowing the network to sell ad times at a higher rate.

its how it works.
