An odd assignment

Jeff Krupsaw called Rock from the paper to ask if he would watch a specific football game on television and write a game story. Rock agreed, but shortly thereafter he awoke and walked into his den. He wondered what game Jeff had asked about. He turned on his television and found one but was too sleepy to watch, so he went back to bed and slept for another hour and a half.
Rock woke up at about 1:45 p.m. and walked back to his den. He looked for the game again but couldn't find it. About a half an hour passed before Rock grew certain that Krupsaw had not truly asked him to watch a football game. Among the factors that convinced him were that the coming football season was still a little more than a month away.
