Seriously, ESPN:?

Tonight, I was listening to the NFL game, New York Jets and Atlanta Falcons, this evening on ESPN AM 1100 98.9 FM, and the game was nearing the 2 minute warning at the end of the game, with the Jets leading 27-21..
The Atlanta Falcons had the ball on the New York Jets 6 yard line or so, with a 4th and 3 with 2:06 left in the game.
Up until that point, it was the most important play of the game and it could determine the outcome of the game.
So, what does ESPN do?
Just as the play started, ESPN went to a commercial, starring Mike Rowe, selling ford trucks.
When the commercial ended, the play was over and you had to piece together what happened... The Falcons threw an incomplete pass but a penalty was called on the Jets, giving the Falcons a first down.  The Falcons eventually scored, taking the lead.  The Jets, came back and scored on a last second field goal and won the game.
ESPN never apologized for their mistake, nor did  they rerun the play, delay the broadcast or go into detail about the play that America missed.
What a bunch of Bozo's.
