As I am on the format they used? 3 games today, 2 games tomorrow, 3 the next. :thumbdown:

Phillies played 1, then off, then 1, then off, then 1. Is this any way to have continuity and run a series? I mean, really. How annoying can you get? You play 3 games (in a row), travel day, then 2...or the reverse. Thank God there's only 2 series the next go round.

Yeah, yeah, they could only fit 3 games in on TBS, FTW! Use TNT and get all 4 in or let someone else get the money...um, showcase it.

It has nothing to do with the amount of games on a single day, they spread it out to ensure theres games every day. Though they should start two series on Tues and two on Wednesday

Tues
ALDS1 Game 1
NLDS1 Game 1

Wed
ALDS1 Game 2
ALDS2 Game 1
NLDS1 Game 2
NLDS2 Game 1

Thur
ALDS2 Game 2
NLDS2 Game 2

Fri
ALDS1 Game 3
NLDS1 Game 3

Sat
ALDS1 Game 4
ALDS2 Game 3
NLDS1 Game 4
NLDS2 Game 3

Sun
ALDS2 Game 4
NLDS2 Game 4

Mon
ALDS1 Game 5
NLDS1 Game 5

Tue
ALDS2 Game 5
NLDS2 Game 5

The final LDS would finish on the same day as the last one does this season, though other series would have lasted beyond that had each gone to the max 5th game. Only twice would there be 4 games the same day and a majority of the time no one would be playing early afternoon games.

I can tolerate most Mormons; just not Andy Reid.

It's a money maker - ad dollars. You start them all on the same day - no reason not to. Six days max. It's over by 10/10. LCS can start 2 days later. I want the Boys of October to be just that. The WS will go into November. Call me traditional...it's just dragging things out to get more ratings and money.

Day 1 Tues 10/5
ALDS A - game 1
ALDS B - game 1
NLDS A - game 1
NLDS B - game 1

Day 2
ALDS A - game 2
ALDS B - game 2
NLDS A - game 2
NLDS B - game 2

Day 3
ALDS A - game 3
ALDS B - travel
NLDS A - game 3
NLDS B - travel

Day 4
ALDS A - travel
ALDS B - game 3
NLDS A - travel
NLDS B - game 3

If Necessary
Day 5
ALDS A - game 4
ALDS B - game 4
NLDS A - game 4
NLDS B - game 4

Day 6 - 10/10
ALDS A - game 5
ALDS B - game 5
NLDS A - game 5
NLDS B - game 5
