Gracenote error?

This not really an EPG123 issue, but it is related to Schedules Direct and Gracenote.
Usually I use Gracenote to verify that the Rovi/TiVo data is correct, but lately I have found a couple issues where Gracenote was wrong or appears to be wrong, and Rovi was correct.
Currently I see that on Thursday night in the NYC area, Gracenote has NFL Football (no description) from 7pm-10pm on WCBS. Rovi and TitanTV has The Insider/ET/The Big Bang Theory/Mom and Big Brother (live episode) on during that time period.
To be honest, I don't know which is correct, and it might be one of those things where the football game may or may not be played based on earlier games (I don't follow pro football but the CBS NFL website only mentions one game on that date on NBC), but it just seems strange that here we are one day before air time and there is still this discrepancy and it appears that Gracenote is the one that is wrong (since two other sources have it otherwise).
