DVR'd an hour of the hockey game...

FAIL...

Not saying I don't like hockey...I enjoy watching sometimes, but when the guide says a program is going to be on...

Thank you Mecum! Not only was hockey on instead of the highlight show, but everything I watched all week was not in HD anymore.

They televised it out here after the hockey game but cut it to about a half hour to show the Rugby game that was previously scheduled. I must say that I hate the new networks for both Mecum and B-J. My cable company did not cover hardly any of the auctions on NBC Sports but rather on Esquire which I do not get. For all the coverage I think I saw about 2 hours..........same problem with BJ and their Fox Business channel coverage. I did watch a lot of Mecum online but I like to DVR it and fast forward through the stuff I have on interest in. I did notice that Mecum brought on a female to complete with B-J.

I guess I didn't make myself clear. Not looking for a quartic of the coverage but a link to what little was shown on NBC Sunday afternoon. My friends 67 Red/White 435 was sold at 240K and we would like to have a link to it.
Thanks Bill

The whole mess on several different channels including one I don't get and non-HD programming has really turned me off to both of these auctions which I religiously DVR'd in the past. I'm very disappointed with both auction houses. Bummer!
