    NFL coach gets canned; State U wins its bowl game; local NHL and NBA teams playing tonight; boatloads of high school basketball and wresting holiday tournaments ... 10-page section fills up fast.

    See, where we are, the NBA and the NHL are what barely merit a blip. Bowl game is way over that ... for us.

    I don't believe I'll ever have to think about that.

    The Branson Bowl before anything in Mississippi.

    Every night? Or just for the holidays? Do you get anything in that begins after 6 pm? (Don't know your time zone.)
