Aren't the games already long enough ???
October 16, 2008

If this doesn't prove to anyone who's left out there wondering if it's 'all about the money & not the fans',Fox will be changing the starting time of Game 6 of the WS to sell some time to one of the presidential candidates so he can reach those voters...once again,screw the fans !!!

	This game ain't what it used to be. I remember when you could watch a replay without a corporate sponsorship.

Well, maybe for once it's about something more than the money. I know it's an ad for one political candidate, but maybe it'll be a good reminder to vote. It's only going to push the game time back 15 minutes, most won't even notice. Of course, that's assuming there is a game 6 of the World Series--there hasn't been one in a few years. So it might not even be an issue. ...View More
