H2o Posted May 17, 2022 Posted May 17, 2022 Double headers are a bit much on a Monday. I would expect the later games to have a much lower viewership across the east coast. 4 Quote

Greg S Posted May 17, 2022 Posted May 17, 2022 That will be a hassle for fans who work and/or go to school. You think you have a Sunday game and then all of sudden its switched. Now the work/school thing plays a factor on a Monday. 8 Quote

You think you have a Sunday game and then all of sudden its switched. Now the work/school thing plays a factor on a Monday. Expand It has been a hassle for a long time. I know people who scheduled flights for family and game was moved meaning they needed to either pay for changes on all tickets or miss game. Game tickets should be a contract IMO and it is shame that there are fans who say this is fine but complain when players are cut from contracts where they received initial signing bonuses accounting for this to happen. 1 4 Quote

Ridgewaycynic2013 Posted May 17, 2022 Posted May 17, 2022 That don't confront me long as I gets to be at Prior Aviation to welcome the team home from the road games. * "The Cynic called in sick...was up late Tuesday morning with laryngitis..." 🤔 2 Quote

SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted May 17, 2022 Posted May 17, 2022 I’d be OK with a 5 to 6 pm to 830 MFN Game to start the night Just don’t put an East Coast team on at 9 PM West Coat Time Quote

Expand not if they do it like week 2 for this year with games split between abc and espn. this year it’s 7 espn, 830 abc but they could do 8 abc, 930 pm espn west game dont forget in 23 Christmas and new years are on Monday.

Process Posted May 17, 2022 Posted May 17, 2022 Good for viewership but terrible for fans with tickets to those games and who plan ahead. Quote

Expand I guess the question becomes is there more money in a Sunday Ticket-like package, or just having every game on some network somewhere, even if those games compete? Quote
