Anyone got a contact person over at Cox that we can flood with emails of thanks about them broadcasting the 5a/6a event for us? They didn't have to do that for us fans. I'm glad they did. Lots of fun to watch. Lets show them our gratitude in hopes that they keep it up in the future.

Cox is aware of our great appreciation for their involvement in the television broadcast.

OK Richard.

I guess I'll take your word for it. Nobody wants their email box flooded. But then again, nobody wants to think all their hard work was in vain.

So, COX - if you are reading this -- THANK YOU VERY, VERY MUCH!

Dean

I always prefer when trying to get someone's attention to send a typed or handwritten letter. Emails are simply too easy to send and therefore I think get less attention.

whats the deal with this, they only showed half the matches. When they play it again sunday night, are they going to show the other half?

My guess is that Sunday night will be just like the other night.

They showed all the weights but they spent the most time on what they judged to be the better of the two matches. When one match was over (ie. 145 5a), they switched over to the other match (ie. 145 6a) if it was still going.

I'm thankful for what I got. The price was right (free!) and I could not be two places at once (i went to 4a in Salina) Thanks Cox!

How was Cox suppose to do it when both weight classes wrestle at THE SAME TIME? A split screen?

Again, Cox OWES no one TV coverage. So, one match gets GRACE (the one that is being shown). One match gets JUSTICE (the one that isn't being shown because Cox owes the wrestling community nothing). Nobody gets INJUSTICE.

The way you fix this it to be THERE, and video tape the match that you want to see/watch YOURSELF. If that is not possible, ask somebody else that is going to be there, if they can tape/record it for you.

Thanks again Cox for giving us what you gave us. I enjoyed it. The price was right (free!). The camera work was GREAT! And, I could not be two places at once.
