Don't shoot until you see the whites of their eyes...

You probably weren't as disappointed as Frank and I. Hope you didn't lose any sleep like Frank's kids did. :)

I was told on Tuesday that we would be on unless some major piece of NFL news popped up (which obviously didn't). The preview to the show (URL which I attached to this thread, although it may now be down) which aired on the TV channel and their website said "computer geeks try to outsmart NFL coaches". So as of late Tuesday they were going to show the segment on ZEUS. I believe they taped the commentary on Wednesday AM. Obviously someone with clout didn't like the segment and nixed it; at least that's my interpretation.

We've never been told we'd be in a newspaper/magazine and have it not happen. Good Morning America called once about 3-4 years ago wanting to do a segment, then changed their minds in less than six hours. We may be 0/2 with major TV. Oh, well.
