I like how baseball is.  It's a 7 game world series it starts on this day, there are built in travel days and if game 7 falls on a Wednesday night so be it.  Could you imagine pushing game 7 back 3 or 4 days to get a weekend time slot or to hype it up even more.  Yes the whole thing is stretched out over more than week (if it goes to a game 7) but those days are note really any different for the players and coaches and other than the title being on the line the schedule is not much different from any other 7 game stretch in the regular season.  They don't add 3 more days for fluff.</blockquote>
