ESPN: I hate you

Well, I think it's ESPN that I hate. I'm not sure who's in charge of setting the televised game schedule. What I am sure of is that I hate whomever decided to put the NCAA women's basketball game on Tuesday night.

I'm sure some geezer sports fan (Karly) will tell me that the women's game is always played the day after the men's game. To that I say "Pooey." And gosh darn it, I wish Butler had won. Anyway, as if women's sports didn't have a hard enough time developing a following of, um, anyone, this important game must compete against some of the most popular shows on TV.

Stanford and Connecticut female athletes faced off on ESPN while the competition got hot on FOX's "American Idol." TNT aired the season finale of "Southland." CBS finally decided to show a new "The Good Wife." And ABC's "Lost," which is nearing its series finale, was on to further confuse its loyal fans (Amanda).

Seriously, can't we find a slightly less competitive time slot in which to air the NCAA women's championship game? Perhaps next year it should be played on an opposing network during the Super Bowl.
