I lied, can we improve on grep ',,,,' bigfile?

I lied when I said that was my last question. Smilie
Sorry to bother you gentlemen again... can we improve on grep ',,,,' bigfile?

You see, grep ',,,,' bigfile will strip out the first row in this table:
,,,,,22,33,44
"field1","field2","field3",1,2,3,4
"field1","field2","field3",,,,

which is not what I am after. I only want to strip out the rows with ',,,,' at the end of the row. So I only want to search for pattern ',,,,' in the last four chars of the row. Is there a way to grep only the last four characters?

I owe you all a favor!!

RGB2YCBCR(1)						      General Commands Manual						      RGB2YCBCR(1)

NAME
rgb2ycbcr - convert non-YCbCr TIFF images to a YCbCr TIFF image SYNOPSIS
rgb2ycbcr [ options ] src1.tif src2.tif ... dst.tif DESCRIPTION
rgb2ycbcr converts RGB color, greyscale, or bi-level TIFF images to YCbCr images by transforming and sampling pixel data. If multiple files are specified on the command line each source file is converted to a separate directory in the destination file. By default, chrominance samples are created by sampling 2 by 2 blocks of luminance values; this can be changed with the -h and -v options. Output data are compressed with the PackBits compression scheme, by default; an alternate scheme can be selected with the -c option. By default, output data are compressed in strips with the number of rows in each strip selected so that the size of a strip is never more than 8 kilobytes; the -r option can be used to explicitly set the number of rows per strip. OPTIONS
-c Specify a compression scheme to use when writing image data: -c none for no compression, -c packbits for the PackBits compression algorithm (the default), -c jpeg for the JPEG compression algorithm, -c zip for the deflate compression algorithm, and -c lzw for Lempel-Ziv & Welch. -h Set the horizontal sampling dimension to one of: 1, 2 (default), or 4. -r Write data with a specified number of rows per strip; by default the number of rows/strip is selected so that each strip is approxi- mately 8 kilobytes. -v Set the vertical sampling dimension to one of: 1, 2 (default), or 4.
