Flipped on the Houston v Tenn game a few minutes ago. Game was in a commercial when I turned it on, ok cool. 3 minutes of commercials, game came back on for 90 seconds, 3 more minutes of commercials. And this is just the first half, I already know the last 2 minutes will take a half hour if it’s close, no thanks

I don’t really give a shite about college basketball and the product just can’t grab my interest with no flow.

This should mean you’ll stop posting on the MSB and Tiger Rant, right?

I don’t post on the Tiger rant and I only post on the MSB about the shite I actually watch.

It’s the Elite Eight, I should want to watch it. And in theory, I guess I do, but the product is so bad I’ll go find something else to do. Which is the point

People complain when there's too much scoring and now complaining about too much defense. I actually really enjoy watching Houston. They play as a TEAM, run a methodical-yet-effective offense, and defend like their lives depend on it.

That's much more entertaining to me than the Alabama-BYU no-defense game a few nights ago.

I’m not talking about the game itself, I’m talking about the fact that in the 8-10 minutes I watched, I got 90 seconds of game time. Said frick it, I don’t really cares who wins this game anyway and found something else to do

Most of the time I turn on a sporting event it’s on commercial or gong to commercial.

What a pussy. Complaining especially about shite that doesn't matter is weak.

I watched more college ball the first day of the NCAA tournament than I did combined all season. I bailed whenever the 2 minute mark hit for the reason you described. Whether it was a 2 point game or a 15 point game there's just no flow to it.

People who are worried about efficiency in time (like myself) "record" the games and watch them starting with a delay, so you can FF through all the commercials and half time. During tournament play I start at least 45 mins late and I catch up right about the end of the game. Last night I caught up with the Duke game with under a minute to play, and today I caught up with the Houston game about 2 minutes after it ended.

At least you didn't have to listen to Janis Joplin 30 times last night while your team took it up the arse

Wasn't it because you made some bad bets?
