Okay guys, seriously. This isn’t the time to win 9 straight. That was the first week of the season. Things like that do make me wonder about how different the season would be if you were able to flip-flop things like that. Atlanta was 47-50 at the break, but if you change the season-opening horror week into a 7-0 stretch, they’d have been 54-43. Granted, the exchange probably means an epic collapse now but NONETHELESS.
Uhhhh, no one played last night. There were 3 total games.
Instead, let’s go back to happier times.
My wife does not understand days like this, and honestly, neither do I. It seems a scheduling failure to not have at least a third of the league playing every night. I know it’s not that easy and making the league’s schedule must be a labyrinth of the highest order, but you are just ceding interest to everything else when a night like this happens in during the season. We are in the midst of theoretical (at least from the perspective of when the schedule was made) pennant races when everyone should be watching, and here’s a night where no one plays. It’s one thing for this to happen in June, but it shouldn’t happen in September.
