However, let’s see what happens if you don’t put the games on in the middle of the night

Yesterday:  Stupid Cubs-Cards late afternoon 6.1M.  Mets at 8pm 6.3M.  BOTH games got more viewers.

Amazing!!!  People from the two biggest markets will watch a game if you put it on when they can stay the frack awake.

It’s as if 79.9% of the US Population lives in either Eastern or Central.
