East Coast People Need to stop Complaining about this

Just one of the many advantages of living on the West Coast.

Dan, they will never be able to make everyone happy.

Sometimes games start at 4PM PST on the weekdays and I am forced to miss them

I'm tired of hearing all these people complaining about how late these playoff baseball games are starting. I mean come on.. If they were to start these games at 6pm EST like they are wanting too, then the west coast people would be complaining.

Dan,
Easy for you to say!

I was up until 2:00 AM watching the game and I had to work today!

I'm on Central time Doc, and you don't see complaining at all. Fair is fair though.

The ET zone is catered to more than any other when it comes to the start times for sporting events. When a PT team makes it to the World Series, they still start those games at the convenience of East Coast viewers. A few games leading up to the World Series that begin at the usual start times for the local fans shouldn't be a problem for ET viewers.

Yeah, but Dan, I'm old and need my beauty rest!

Central time is the best not too early not too late. I remember when I was in hawaii for Christmas watching bowl games in afternoon with nothing to do, man that was fun.

I don't consider these late starts, 10 is plenty fine for me

People like myself on the east coast think the world revolves around New York.

It's ridiculous, most of the country lives east of the Mississippi and for those of us that actually have to go to a job the next morning, we miss the end of most night games... not to mention all the up and coming youth who are big fans too. They're fu*ked! Starting NBA playoff games at 9:00 or even 10:00 pm eastern?!?! That's bullsh*t! They need to have more weekend day games too while they're at it.
