Do you remember where or what it was? When they come out of commercial they sometimes run a graphic showing what's on now and what's coming up (usually Sportscenter).    It showed up there.

Could ESPN have been trying to make sure the viewer wasn't confusing The University of Akron (OH) with Akron High School (NY)?  Come to think of it, that's kind of reasonable way to deal with a potential problem on the part of ESPN.

It was Zippy Bobblehead day at Akron. Zippy had a bad day on and off the field that day. A young lad in front of us made short work of these Zippys.
