Talk about bad broadcasting

I was watching WJHL Channel 11 Sports tonight because it came on before WCYB. They had some highlights of SWVA games, but the scores were just totally out in left field. They had Kelly winning 52-13, Lebanon winning 14-13, and Rural Retreat scoring 13 points against Floyd (when I know I had heard WAXM give the score saying RR hadn't scored in two weeks.) I thought where in the world did they get these scores?

A few minutes later I happened to be looking through today's BHC, reading the predictions, and lo and behold, the predictions in the BHC were the exact same scores that WJHL was reporting as final scores on tonight's contests.

I don't think I'll be watching WJHL sports again.

Wow, that's just sad. thumbs down

I wonder what it would be like if they made that same mistake and reported a losing team as winners? What a bunch of goons.

Wow, I think PassMan could do a better job than WJHL. [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/wink.gif[/img]

Anyone could do a better job by simply grabbing the final scores on this forum. That would be better than throwing in newspaper "prediction" scores and touting them as true 'final scores' to folks all over the area.
