Chris CondonI probably don't need to explain much here, right? I needed some sports on Sunday afternoon, needed it bad, and all I found in the channel guide were various replays. The day may come when I'm ready to watch a 2016 Big 12 Championship quarterfinal on ESPNU, or a replay of some old German soccer match on FS2, but that day is not today. I needed something new, something novel, something I had never seen before and that I could enjoy on its own merits without the depressing reality that I was just reliving the glory days of my usual sports. I needed something new, something novel, something invigorating. Something to defy the sense that I was turning into the sports fan equivalent of Miss Havisham.
I needed bass fishing.
Or at least that's what I thought I needed, when I saw it airing on CBS Sports Network Sunday afternoon. At the very least, it would be something I've never watched before…or done before, for that matter. I also decided not to look up any..
