Why the hell would they start a March Madness game at 11 am on a Thursday?

People have to work, it’s so damn stupid.

That’s how y’all sound bitching about daytime postseason baseball like it’s something new. It’s 2026, there are plenty of ways to watch. Thank you for coming to my ted talk.

They also have to play 16 games in a day in March Madness.

Because there are 16 games per day, so 4 games per window.

Baseball has 4 games today total. Not exactly an apples/apples comparison...

It's the fact that some teams have to play all their games at 2 PM, dumb arse. March Madness is 1 game at a crappy time. Not a whole series.

Some people work nights

I enjoy day games. Even when at work, i can keep up with the score during a long meeting on synergy and being proactive. Oh, and touch points and price points.

If the game was at at 2pm on a Thursday/Friday it would be less of an issue. Let’s start march madness on Tuesday at 11am and see how things go over

ETA and i honestly don’t get the March madness comparisons. The arenas are empty for those Thursday games too

So both have 4 windows? College Basketball games tend to be shorter would be the better argument

It's not 11, its noon. Eastern time is God's time zone.

It gives you a reason to go to lunch early and not go back
