WTH happened to MTP today?

[Cirque du So-What]

It's not that I was actually planning to watch the execrable David Gregory simper and pander to whatever RW guests he planned on entertaining today. I had been watching local news with the intention of tuning to something less stomach-turning when the Benghazi-thon began. To my surprise, programming on my local NBC affiliate switched to English Premier League Soccer - Manchester City vs. Westham United. Is this the situation elsewhere? And if it's network-wide, does this signal the end of David Gregory's reign of mediocrity?

4. Championship Sunday

All 10 Premier League games are on live. The only one's with any meaning are Liverpool/Newcastle and Manchester City/Westham.

It's the last day of the season and I'd have to admit that it's a hell of a lot more fun to watch than Press the Meat.
