Thanks for staggering the night games, assholes. |
they couldn't possibly show anything that would interfere with your Huskies blowing someone out!

What I appreciate is "whip-around coverage" that shows a 50 point blowout over a 3 point game in the 4th quarter.

The games are on the internet, Watch ESPN, but it says something about women's basketball fandom that so many want to watch the blowout.

How does the men's tournament compare to the women's as far as fans are concerned. Perhaps the ESPN Tournament Challenge puts it in perspective. Same rules for both (25 entries allowed per person). Men's entries, approximately 17,000,000. Women's entries, approximately 75,000, or about 0.2%. Pitiful, but a much better value considering the prize is $10,000 for the men (less than $0.01 per entry) and $5,000 for the women ($0.20 per entry)

Of course the men's Tournament challenge had a substantially longer entry window and was promoted much more heavily

I agree, but I believe this is the worst disparity there has ever been. Last season the number of men's entries was roughly the same but there were over 400,000 women's entries.

Last year the women's was available to enter earlier and they promoted it better.

What it says is that even though we have the opportunity to watch games on Directv and Dish for example which is better than before, we still want to complain. If we don't stop always complaining, but praise something, when will we ever be happy. Yes, long way to go for sure, definitely getting better. Praise the good and give positive constructive feedback to these organizations or you may find that they go backwards not forward.

I'm psyched that all games are available in their entirety on "real" TV so I can record every minute.
I remember being criticized for wanting (ok, demanding) such a thing.
The next needed improvement is staggered S16 and E8 tip times.

Notre Dame is just too big, too strong, and too fast for Bethune Cookman

The B12 is the only multi-bid conference without a win

Is the Pac-12 and Big 10 the only undefeated conferences so far?
