It's not bumped by anything - MythWeb shows it as not marked-up at all with the usual borders, like it's been totally ignored. I do a mythfilldatabase with --dd-grab-all every morning, so I'm working with the freshest SchedulesDirect data.

The title match program.title LIKE '%FL%Football' is never going to
match "Sunday Night Football.

A small change to the match expression is needed to capture both
titles in the one rule (or alternatively create a separate rule that
match Sunday Night Football directly).
