Great win for Sox. I'm in Chicago so up late to see it. Great article by Rushin in SI this week on why its great to be in Pacfic time zone for sports fans.
Football season is the best
Saturday: First game starts @ 9A - or not much after you get up - and last game is the Pac-10 game on Fox that starts @ 7P and ends around 11P so we get 14 hours of NON-STOP football
Sunday: First game starts @ 10A and runs until about 4:30P so there is 6.5 hours and then SNF starts @ 5:30Pish for another 3.5 hours or 10 hours of Football in an 11 hour span
add it up and you get 24 hours of football crammed into a 25 hour block and the last games end before the next day begins
Monday: EVEN BETTER - game starts @ 6P (7P in MDT and some parts of AZ after clocks change) and even if it takes forever it is over by 10P so going to bed at a reasonable hour is OK
Playoff MLB Games: Ditto - over no later than 10P for the most part - NOT 1A
If you are a Sports fan and live ANYWHERE other than the Pacific or Mountain Time Zone you are missing out BIG TIME!
