9:30 pm is TOO LATE

[EdSaid]

ESPN is at it again. They figure UConn can win the ratings, plus adding in the top West coast team Stanford.

The fact of the matter is if you are 60+ its too late.

I'm 60+ and anything that gets these games in front of East, Mid- and West Coast eyes works for me.

How about taking a nap before the game?

Edited: South Carolina is the #1 seed so they get the earlier time, just like UConn played the early games in the early rounds.

Not everyone is against UConn Can we please stop looking for conspiracies?

Hey Ed - we live in WI so the game here will be at 8:30. Gotta a spare bedroom all set for you.

How dare ESPN not consult the Seniors from the east coast first when scheduling these games. I'm envious of Seniors from the west coast.

 

[GoUconn7961]

No, Stanford is the #1 seed. They’re on the West coast, where the game will be played at 6:30 in the evening.

Thank you Nan. I was coming here to say the exact same thing.

I don't like the late starts because I don't think they have been very kind to us. Geno has said something about the team having to sit around extra longer than normal.

 

[ctchamps]

Gets easier when you hit 70+.

 

[Centerstream]

How about being thankful that our Huskies are in the game PERIOD!!!!!!!

 

[Waquoit]

The OP might as well as posted "I am a tired old fart!"

 

[GoUconn7961]

If we were perhaps the overall #1 seed it might have been the early game. Let's just be happy the team is playing again.

Speak for yourself.

Thank God the next day is Saturday, I can sleep in!

 

[Blueconn]

Just had my 70th, got a serious health problem, still working, no money, the world’s going to hell in a hand basket and they could play it at 2am on Horse Barn Hill…I’ll be wide awake and grinning. Plus I’m going bald.

Speak for yourself.

Yes, I'm a little on the other side of 60 and am a night owl. What I think is that 9:30 PM is possibly too late for the players.

It’s like you don’t know us at all anymore.

 

[rbny1]

I'm 80+ and am excited about watching the game. I think Paige and the other young whippersnappers on the team can handle the 9:30 time also.

 

[JonathanXIV]

Hey! I'm a little offended by the notion that 9:30 on a Friday night is too late. I mean, it's not a school night.

 

[Boreifs]

I’m a Senior and I go to bed after midnight. There is such a thing as sleeping in.

 

[Blueconn]

They’re rather young and the game is at 6:30. More worried about Tara and Geno.

 

[and one]

The reality is that folks in their 20s don't head out to party until after 10pm, their parents are snoozing by midnight and their grandparents are turning off the lights at the same time their grandkids are heading out into the night.

I'm 70+ and usually early to bed and early to rise. Staying up to watch UConn in a 9:30 game? No problem.

 

[Blakeon18]

Being in Minneapolis I assume that is central time. Game time for the players will be 8:30.

We’re becoming a fan base of whiners
