    the way UPN changes their scores on TV. They are slow as hell in updating the correct score and I want to know why! Sometimes they even wait until the other team has went down the court and scored before they update the score from the possession prior to that. If I am the only person here that is bothered by this then I apologize for even posting this and wasting your time, but I had to know if I was the only one.

    P.S.--I wonder if it is a coincidence that the Rockets score is always updated faster than their opponents making it sometimes look like we have a bigger lead than we really do.

    I haven't really noticed the score thing, But I live in Beaumont and we do not get UPN but a local channel has made arrangements to carry some ofthe games(like every 3rd game) and every time you turn on the channel it is like they have the volume turned up all the way. It rattles the walls even if you just flip by the channel.It drives my wife nuts every time I forget to turn it down before I start to watch.Then again maybe I am subconciously doing that on purpose [​IMG]

    That is so damn funny because I was thinking the same thing too. Somtimes I think the Rockets have a bigger lead then the score gets update.

    Good observation.

    The score updating seems accurate and timely tonight for some reason. This is honestly the first time all season a game shown of UPN has accurately updated quickly after each made shot.

    Wonder why?
