Re2: ESPN classics

["Jim Meyer" <jimmeyer@azstarnet.com>]

Yeah, totally new.  I think this makes ESPNs 4th cable channel (with the
ones you mentioned and their 24hr news-only channel).  We just got digital
cable added to the analog variety and this was one of the new channels.
Just got done watching a game of the 1977 western conference finals between
Portland and LA...nice to be reminded what Bill Walton was like when he
still had knees.
