World Series: Something Is Broken

I know I'm going to be left out here in the forest yelling all by
myself (well maybe Mushnick is out here) but I'm gonna yell anyway.

I hope my couch is enjoying these games because I'm not. I heard the
score this morning and was stunned. The last thing I remember was CC
coming out after Utley's home run.

My son's recollection of the series? I think he saw an inning of game
2.

I understand TV doesn't want to play a day game. Would 6 or 7pm kill
them? The Super Bowl seems to do just fine starting at 6:20. Let
CBS have the NFL doubleheader during the series.

I will keep pointing out that more than half the population of the US
lives in the eastern time zone.

Another problem is the glacial pace of these games. I don't know how
many extra minutes of commercials are crammed in but it feels
endless. I actually start watching the game on the DVR about 20
minutes after the first pitch so I can watch the first 5 or so innings
at a nice pace….so all those advertisers are wasting their money
anyway. Thank you 30 second skip.

Have you noticed all the local TV channels now start their newscasts
at 5am? People are getting up earlier. You have to sleep sometime,
and for me that seems to be in the 8th inning.

No game on a Friday. Late start on a Sunday. My passion for this
series is now way down, to Monday Night Football levels. MNF long
ago conditioned me to turn off the TV at halftime, maybe I will plan
on 4 and done tonight.

Tonight is November 2nd by the way. Is this what baseball wants?
