TAR will start late tonight in Chicago at least, FYI - still 12 minutes of game time left, so probably a half hour or more.
I hate that because my DVR doesn't seem to know how to handle a delayed start. So I have to keep checking back in and seeing if it's started yet.
I just have TAR set to record for two hours.

This U-turn thing is turning out to be kind of fascinating. Not the thing itself, but the responses of the various teams.

The only enjoyable Yield to watch was the first one, where Colin went into slow burn and started the road to "My ox is broken!!"
