Stern admits mistake in Spurs' schedule

[Mrs.Tlong]

That she wants you....but she fears the sheep.

I'll that up!

stern was admitting the time-rest issue, not the time slot insult of putting 2 teams with 60+ wins on the 1st of a double header in the in' morning

Stern was admitting that, yes. But I was talking about the reason for the scheduling. And he agreed to that.

They tipped off their series with Dallas at noon, local time, on Sunday because ABC wanted to show the Cleveland-Detroit game in the more attractive later time slot.

"We could lay it off on the network, but that's our responsibility and we have the ability to say no," Stern said. "And we should have."

Stern could said the same if the Spurs has lost past game?

is a Mistery...

I for one think stern made the right decsion I don't have rich peoples TV this the only way I was going to see the game and not have to listen to WOAI was if it was on ABC

Now I thought it shoudl have been the later game because it woudl have given more rest so tim didn;t have to be up at am

but still national games are for money and ratings and obviously the best game was the spurs game them getting the prime spot on national tV was a good thing

if they weren;t in the prime spot peopel woul be saying how the media disses the spurs and aren;t giving them any respect

there is a reason the dallas cows have lots of MNF games when it was on national tv it is because people want to see them and when they do advertisers want to buy ads

plan and simple money rules the NBA and spurs bring in money
