A nobody's watching hat trick

The 2007 NBA Finals will go down as the least watched finals ever - The San Antonio Spurs-Cleveland Cavilers matchup drew just a 5.5 Nielsen household rating last night, and a 6.2 for the entire series, in which the Spurs swept the Cavs in four.

Along with record-low ratings for the World Series (between Tigers-Cardinals) last fall and the Stanley Cup Finals (which were never high to begin with) a week ago, televisied sports (except football) completed a hat-trick of the worst kind. 

It looks like the Blackhawks and the WWE (and "Vince McMahon") aren't the only ones who are dead....
