Maybe this is why America's popular playoff games are played at night or weekends.

I know I will be calling in "sick" a few times during the World Cup :)

Here in NC, the week of the ACC basketball tournament might as well be a holiday. Little to no work gets done.

When millions are watching from 24 time zones it is difficult to schedule "night" games. Having said that it will be easier to watch at lunch time (here near the Golden Gate) than getting up at 1am or 4am was to watch like last time from the games in Japan.

Because sponsors prefer it that way, or because of altruism? I wonder.

I'd rather have my wisdom teeth pulled without Novocaine than watch five minutes of the World Cup. But hey, that's just me...

Yeah. I want Tuesday nites off to watch "House" and Thursday nites off to watch "Earl" too... tough t*ts! It's called responsibility and sacrifice, and these workers need to learn that.
