Wouldn't NBC & the Canadian CBC carry at least 1 if not both of those contests?

Hmmm...I would think so, but the only indication I could find in the Star's listings that week was for Game 1 of the World Series on the 9th...

On Tues, they apparently ran the network 10pm shows based on the listings...on Fri, WGR aired One Night Stand, WROC showed NFL Game of the Week, and WBEN/WHEC ran movies 9:30-11.

Or posted updated listings in the Entertainment section itself, I presume the supplement was prepared a few days in advance...
