Could not agree more. I hate the spectacle that the Super Bowl has become. I really have little interest in a game that starts at 6:30 EST and these blockbuster thematic halftime shows. Then MLB with its interleague play and having the All-Star Game choose the homefield team for the World Series. Finally, I hate the NBA playoffs for having 3 and sometimes 4 days in between games and the playoffs lasting for nearly 2 months. I remember the good old NBA finals b/w LA & Boston that were in Game 3 by Memorial Day. Last year, if it would have gone 7 games, it would have been on Father's Day! :rolleyes: [/b][/quote]eventhough the schedules are made around money I still like them. On a saturday or sunday afternoon you can watch basketball games at 1:00, 3:30, 6:00 and 9:00. Yes that is made so that each game can get the most viewers but I prefer that to having 6 games being played and only being able to watch 1 or flipping back and forth between them.
Superbowl? you mean that thing in between commercials?
