Dumbest message on cable box today

[lappdawg27]

From time to time I get messages on my digital cable box about new on-demand movies, pay-per-view event listings, and other things. I got perhaps the dumbest one ever the other day. I noticed in the subject line it had "NHL Center Ice". I thought, "hey cool, a free week of Center Ice", which is normally what they do twice a year. Well upon reading it, it was a free week, but the dates were from Feb 16 to 22nd, in which there are zero games!! Thanks for the freebie Comcast!

maybe you're getting full Olympic hockey coverage? (if you wern't going to get it already??)

I am sure you could call Comcast and have fun with the rep asking about it.

Every game is on my cable system already (USA, MSNBC, NBC, CNBC), although it does suck that I only get NBC and USA in hi-def.

every game is on, but NHL Center Ice is the only one that shows full Olympic coverage. The other stations overlap events

double/double facepalm

Oh I see. Still seems strange that the NHL, who is trying to get you to buy NHL Center Ice by showing you a free preview, would show a free week of olympic hockey instead of their hockey.
