PrintJust heard that the U.S. Women's Open was bumped off the air in St. Louis today. The local NBC affiliate chose to show the St. Louis Cardinals game instead. Wonder if they got any complaints? In St. Louis, the Cards are kings ... but there were probably some angry golfers, too.
Perhaps the NBC affiliate has a contract with the Cards the requires them to take precedent over anything the network is offering. Or perhaps the local channel thought it would get better ratings ...

Cardinals rule the summer
The red birds definitely get higher ratings than women’s golf in that area.
I wonder if the golf was moved to a secondary station until the game was over like ESPN did for ABC on Saturday.
