"Grown folks let's talk about this 9:20 EST tip off tonight"


  

          

These start times are getting out of hand. Then they wonder why they're losing fans.

Joking aside, the championship has started after 9 eastern for at least a decade. So it must be working for the corporate folks who schedule it.

I don't see why the girls and boys title games can't both be on Sunday. or at very least Saturday and Sunday. I know they hype the Final Four up to be bigger than the title game, but come on.

when the Iggles win 41-33...I'm confident in assuming the Monday after SB Sunday has both...

a high number of requests for days off and call outs

was my point

if the SB was on a sat you could wallow all day sun, and be the regular cog in the machine on monday

but yes, Mondays suck

less people are home watching tv on a saturday night than a sunday. Football fans gonna watch regardless...its about the rest.

-The Knicks’ coaching search still includes a lone frontrunner, Kurt Rambis, whose qualifications for the position include a strong relationship with Jackson and a willingness to take the job.

i remember not being able to watch the whole game as a little kid cause it was way past my bedtime haha

regardless, an earlier start time wouldn't make this game or college hoops in general any more interesting.

i felt real grown staying up on a monday to watch the glen rice and fab 5 final games

i got no such special accommodation for Duke/UNLV, and then the ARK/Duke final in 94 was the first one that it was no longer impacted by bedtime

7-8 pm starts for big games, CFB kicks off at 11 am

West coast people are still in rush hour traffic when evening games start and 9 AM football is just no

East coasters deal with that constant hangover, every damn game ending between midnight and 1 am
