NBA, ESPN uncaring?

[Stokomo]

Has anyone seen the NBA, ESPN national TV schedule for the 2002-2003 season? It is, politely saying, uncaring of the high school activities, especially on Friday nights. TNT in past years changed their format because of conflict with Friday night high school sports. Please, to anyone who care to watch NBA on TV, do not watch the games on Friday Nights until you get home from supporting your high school team of choice. The high school players need your support at games more than these multi-millionaires (NBA).

I wouldn't watch the NBA no matter what day it is on (until Playoffs).......

I agree Gomad, and then I watch only the last

4 minutes to cheer against the Lakers

(If it isn't 1AM)

The NBA is setting a bad example for our youth. I never watch the NBA. I guess I am too old school, but I am all about team and not individuals acting crazy. Sorry, but I will always be old school where there is admiration for your opponent's ability and there is really a team concept. High school basketball is the purest basketball there is. That is why I love it.

Well said!!

These are great replies. I don't watch the NBA but the playoffs. But, I would hope, whoever is reading this board and watches the NBA, that they will support their high school sports first. The NBA is going mostly Tuesday through Friday. This is during most of high school activities. The season schedule for the NBA on Sundays is very scarce, where they need to be.
