CBS eye not on Phins' win
Viewers in New York understandably were frustrated Sunday when CBS left the Ravens-Dolphins game just before Miami’s winning score and first victory.
Morons in the control room? No.
The NFL’s TV rules required Ch. 2 to leave after the Ravens missed a potential game-winning field goal because it was 4:15 p.m. and Fox’s late game was starting.
Memo to NFL, CBS and Fox: Ditch this rule.
Sure, in some weeks the network with the doubleheader will lose first-quarter viewers, but relaxing the restrictions would be fan friendly, and in the long run the breaks would even out between networks.
