You guys had me panicking for a second there(NJ guy here). We've gotten this game on TV as long as I can remember, I woulda flipped out if Dr. Phil was stealing the Tigers spotlight.
You think you guys are screwed? Friday is my wife's birthday and she hates football. Think I'll get to watch this game on her birthday? If she had some friends that lived nearby, I'd organize a surprise "Ladies Lunch" for about 2 p.m. Sigh.
My condolences. That is terrible. And one of the reasons I may never get married. A girlfriend once broke up with me for a short period of time because I refused to miss an LSU game.
