This March Madness SH*T is pissing me off - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

It's spilling over into the NBA because there are LESS national games right now because of march madness. No national NBA games on Friday and only 1 game on ABC today so NBA fans can watch March Madness the rest of the afternoon??

i can't wait until this sh*T is over

Why are you always bashing the NCAA tournament? If you don't like it, don't get on a board to bash it. Don't you realize many NBA stars came from college at some point?

As I speak, Western Kentucky (a school that was once and will be again near and dear to me) is leading San Diego in the 2nd round 39-27 (or is it 28?). As a result, as far as I'm concerned the NBA might as well be the South New Zealand Cricket Invitational for Six Year Olds, because quite frankly I just do not care about any other sport.

If you've got a problem with the basketball, watch something else - or do something else besides watch TV today.

I can't because ABC thinks all NBA fans like watching the Tournament

Many people are in office pools, which means they have a stake in this tournament. The end.

Because it's interfering with something I like to watch. If it didn't do that I wouldn't care

I would think the NCAA would be beating the NBA in ratings today. I am surprised ABC aired a game opposite of the NCAA tournament.

My point is so what? And i don;t think the NCAA game would beat the RIGHT NBA MATCHUP on ABC. You think a natchup between the Lakers and Suns or Pistons and Celics wouldn't beat a round 2 NCAA game? Keep in mind this is not the FINAL FOUR o NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP, it's the second ROUND!!!!

My point is WHY CAN"T BOTH BE ON?? That way a NBA would have a choice, a NCAA Tournament Game or a NBA Game. Right now I have no options and nothing to watch

I'd rather watch College Basketball. The NBA plays too much street ball. The player's get out there and try too show off.

I've watched enough pro ball in my life to know that it's all just a practically meaningless snoozefest until the playoffs begin.
Too many games, too many teams making the playoffs, too many guys picking what nights they want to play hard or just go through the motions.

March Madness will always be better than any NBA scenarios in March.
I don't care if it's one of the greatest NBA games you ever see, it means diddly squat in March.

Like you said, 2 more months of pro ball- until the playoffs. And then another month of that.

Are they playing Villanova next?

If only it were that easy. They have to play 1-seed UCLA next.
