The affect of this new rule has the potential to affect...what....one in 1000 games? 2 Quote Link to comment
B.B. Hemingway Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 Finally! What took so damn long?! Looking forward to the MLB heeding this decision, and turning games into a HR derby after 20 innings! 1 Quote Link to comment
BigRedBuster Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 Picture this moment. Nebraska vs. Michigan is scheduled to be on TV at 2:30. The Vanderbilt vs. North Carolina game at 11:00 game is now in the 5th OT and you are sitting in your living room and have now missed most (if not all) the first quarter of the Nebraska game. Does your opinion change at that point that a rule needs to be put in that would end the game earlier? 1 Quote Link to comment

It's this small, insignificant change to the rules that is being criticized. Quote Link to comment

Can't remember how I know this, Real Sports maybe. Some of them spend the night in town after late games. I saw Sean McDonough drinking with Matt Davison at gate 21after a night game a few years ago. Brent Smashed-burger got pulled over in Lincoln with an open container a long time ago... 1 Quote Link to comment

Poor example, we were trailing 20-0 after the first quarter. Any diversion from that game would have been welcomed including an airing of Heidi. 1 1 2 Quote Link to comment

Apparently 168 Geico ads in three hours isn't enough. Quote Link to comment
