It is always this way and it's a very weird and lousy schedule. I can understand it more on Saturday, where nobody is watching TV during the day. But on Sunday to drag it out like this and then start 6 games within three hours of each other is a gift to the networks and a kick in the nuts for the fans.The first weekend tv schedule is kind of lame. Two exclusive games in 5 hours, where you have to sit through full extended halftimes and full breaks after both games, and then the other six games are grouped together in a way where when it works out like yesterday you get several good games coming down to the wire at the same time.
It's beyond obnoxious.Plus starting games at 10pm on Sunday is retarded
Turner is all about having events in primetime even though there's no doubt they'd make more in ad sales today if there were four windows of two games each. Sucks for viewers but it's kind of a gift to CBS that they get to sell these first two windows exclusively and the NCAA isn't going to push back. It's surprising that it's been this way for a number of years and nobody who covers sports media has really called out how awkward it is at least as far as I have seen.It is always this way and it's a very weird and lousy schedule.

C'mon now. I agree that it sucks for the fans at home but are you implying that you have access to more accurate data than Turner executives do? If decisions were being made by these executives that were not maximizing their ROI then jobs would surely be in jeopardy.Turner is all about having events in primetime even though there's no doubt they'd make more in ad sales today if there were four windows of two games each.

Ha! We posted back to back. One man's purse is another's pig's ear I guess.They're letting ND set moving screen after moving screen.
It was cool until all these guys turned athletes trying to plow your daughter.This site used to be the best place to game thread the first NCAA weekend. Those days, sadly, are over. It has been less than active. Oh well.
