DESTINATION: Omaha - Day 5

It takes a lot to do continuing coverage at the CWS. Satellite trucks, booking time on those flying dishes, staying cool with looming deadlines, lots of water because of all the running around. But probable the most important thing you will need for this are.........TAPES. Lots and lots of tapes. Since you can't shoot the game, tapes are a valuable commodity. You have to beg you for an extra allotment and hope that it is enough to make it through a possible two week run.
I miss those things from time to time but I've got my own headaches.
Like making sure the computer doesn't decide to take an unexpected break. Or that all of the video you captured won't disappear for some unexplained reason. So far so good. Looks like we'll finish early. Time to enjoy the down time. I wonder who else is wandering around Corn Husker Country? Look who we found. Yes that's ESPN'S Erin Andrews. It pays to get done early you never know who's going to show up.
