YES (the Yankees Network in NYC) is currently playing Game 4 of the 2001 World Series (notable for the Yanks' comeback with two outs the 9th inning, as well as being the first Major League Baseball game ever played in November [the whole League was delayed a week after the al-Qaeda attacks]). It was originally broadcast on Fox, and this replay includes Fox's awful jittery computer-generated ads along the wall behind home plate, including... "Get ready for The Tick! Coming this fall!" Why do they even advertise shows if they're only intending to treat them like scheduling punching bags?

*sigh*
