This demonstrates an abysmal lack of leadership in the NBC Heads Up Event, failing to capitalize on the event reputation & track record. NBC could generate an enormous amount of publicity & goodwill be running Heads Up Championships in every state, culminating in four regional Heads Up Championships, all of whom would be seeded into the NBC Heads Up Event with world-class players.
