I barely have the patience to DO fishing, much less sit and watch it!

I wonder if Bassmasters and MLB had to pay ESPN to broadcast their shows?

I don't know about tivo since I don't have it, but with my VCR and DVD recorder, I set them for an additional 30 minutes, sometimes an hour depending on what precedes the race. I record every event and haven't missed one yet ----- except for the Finals in Pomona, it was 2003 I think. That's when they ran over & ESPN didn't show the final rounds (PSB final may have been shown, but that was it). They haven't done this since though.

How long was the delay? I always add 30 minutes to my dvr recording. Y'all might want to try that next time.

I was thinking the exact same thing when I heard a quarter million!
Is it Bill Dance that wears the Tennesse Hat?
Growing up my best friend couldn't get enough of his fishing program on the weekends, he lived for it. I like to fish, but never could get into watching someone else do it. These guys now-a-days seem to really get pumped up about it, the fans as well. I guess with that much money up for grabs I could get pumped too.

Mike: I TiVo all of the races. I usually watch them live but have it set to record just in case I am out or get busy. I have started ALWAYS setting it up to record 1/2 hour extra. If I am watching live I just cancel the recording but if not I am safe in the event that it runs over.
Edit: Sorry... others covered that. I hadn't read the entire thread.

Didn't bother me and I don't fish.

Excellent point Bobby
15 minutes never hurt anyone... At least we got all 3 hours... A little reminder to those who set thier VCR... Yeah some of us are still stuck with that ole contraption... I set mine for 4 hours for just a situation like this... Thank goodness it was'nt college basketball with 2 minutes left... I would have run out of tape for sure... lol

I saw a great T-Shirt in Ketchikan, Alaska last week:
Give a man a fish and he eats for a day.
Teach a man to fish and he will sit in a boat all day and drink beer.
