And if I'm not mistaken...that Monday night game included the incident where the camera zoomed in on a sleeping Oilers fan who, somehow, woke up, knew the camera was on him and flipped the nation the bird.Cosell just roared "oh-HO!" but Meredith (supposedly at the director's instigation) shouted "they're number one in the nation!"
 
I thought ABC pre-empted Cavett on Monday nightsat that time.I'd be interested in knowing what various affiliatespre-empted of that schedule. Channel 11 in Atlantaran Password on a one-day delay at 11 AM; they hadlocal news at noon. They also had the 3:30 Prize Movie(don't know what it was that day), which knocked outOne Life To Live altogether, and caused Love, AmericanStyle to air a day behind at 10:30 AM. The station foughtABC for months to get One Life To Live on in the morningon a day-behind basis, and it took until early in 1973 toget ABC to agree. OLTL then ran at 11 AM, and Passwordmoved to 10 AM. (What's odd is that WLKY Louisville, whichalso had a 3:30 movie, was carrying One Life To Live at 11AM in October 1972.)Also, many ABC affiliates carried Smith and Reasoner at 6 (ET);in my neck of the woods they included WGHP Greensboro/Winston-Salem/High Point, WCTI Greenville/New Bern/Washington, NC,WLOS Greenville/Spartanburg/Asheville, WVEC Norfolk, WCCBCharlotte, WKPT Bristol/Kingsport/Johnson City, and WTVK Knoxville.We moved to Tampa in the summer of '73, and ABC News aired thereat 6 on Channel 10.Some of the stations carrying Smith/Reasoner at 7 included WABCNew York, WMAL (now WJLA) Washington, and WPLG Miami.
