NewMexiKen just doesn’t understand a culture that starts a national championship game at nearly half past nine for half the population (the Eastern time zone). Something we might actually like for kids to watch starts at 9:21 — which means it won’t be over before midnight.
Update: For the record, the game ended at 11:35 ET.
No to mention 9/10 of professional sporting contests. The only sport that, blessedly, shows its final game at a decent hour is the NFL. And the other sports wonder how the NFL is so successful. . .
The above was me! 🙂
Not to mention that during the championship-game broadcast, the NFL allows boobies!
Howerver Monday night football routinely ends after midnight on the east coast.
And Sunday night football. And Thursday night football. 11:30 at least.
