Bowl Games on XM (not just Sirius)

Thursday, December 23, 2004 at 2:07 PM

A thoughtful reader pointed out that the Bowl Games are on XM, not just Sirius - as I reported earlier.

In the rush to try to get the news out quickly, sometimes I miss out on the details. Sorry 'bout that guys.

I encourage everyone to send me corrections, comments and love/hate mail whenever you find something like this. Without your help, this site would be nothing.

Thanks Neil!

UPDATE: Argh. After this post, it was pointed out to me that Sirius is broadcasting 12 bowl games and XM only has 10.
Thanks kwik!
