Why can't American Sports (NFL excluded) ever start on time?

And even a better question is why do so many games have to start so late and cater to the West Coast.....(Haha this is a neverending debate)

Do people actually watch this stuff?

My bets are in, and i'm working on the next moneymakers, but watch maybe 1% of the time.

BTW, many futbol {soccer} matches are set to start 1 minute before the hour, and that is
when they start, as a rule.

NBA playoffs have become very bad at this crap. Game starts at 7:30, and by the time the douche announcers do their pregame and a zillion RAM truck commercials, it is friggin' 8:15. Its all about advertising. Assholes

I must admit, it is also my preference that the games start on time, especially in this business so that new scenerios cannot come into play after one has made their wager.
