Don't plan your TV watching around the ACC schedule
You know the morning's not going well when the basis of information for a story is wrong. The Big Four men's basketball schedules that we printed on the front page of the Sports section today are incorrect.
At least it wasn't all our fault. Yesterday afternoon, we set up a graphic with the ACC men's basketball schedule rotation for the next three years that the league sent out via e-mail. Then the league decided the schedule doesn't work for all schools for all three years. So the league sent another e-mail advising everyone of this. Some papers got the e-mail. The league sent ours to Sports Editor Joe Sirera, who was out of the office for the rest of the day.
We've advised the league of other, more universally used e-mail addresses. We'll officially correct the story in Saturday's paper. We regret any inconvenience it caused. (It will relieve my Carolina graduate wife who thought it was grossly unfair that UNC had to play Wake at Wake two years in a row.)
