Yeah you're right - they would always avoid it. Must have done their ratings research.

No one watches the World Series besides people from Dallas and St.Louis. Why does the rest of the country has to suffer without NFL?

It's because no one is watching this World Series but regional fans.

I haven't watched nearly as much of the 3 games as I usually do.

I just thought the NFL did MLB a common courtesy. Guess not.

No one else is going to watch the World Series? Over the amazing matchup of the Colts and the Saints?

They stopped doing the courtesy last year.

really boring NFL game tonight probably, will definitely watch world series

There is no NFL game going against the world series this year. It's the saints vs the lucks. An exhibition of a team trying to get the number one pick. When are they going to start flexing away from the colts games?

ya they always reserved this Sunday Night for the World series before. My clicker is ready.

Americans are fukking addicted to football, it's like crack. I will be watching game 4 despite my love of football though.

The NFL pretty much runs shit. The World Series will schedule around the NFL in the future, not the other way around.

Flex doesn't start until November. NBC can't flex out of early season games.

In my hood everyone is watching football tonight. No one cares about baseball in the south.

Most people would rather watch football than baseball, unless you're a fan of one of the MLB teams. Either way, just use two TV's, no problem.
