Sure, it might be a welcome break for the players, at least that is what the politically correct spin would be, but let's get it on! The Big Fox Conference needs more consistent scheduling in the future. Let's not stop and start like this during conference play. It really isn't that hard to put together a schedule where fans know when to expect a Big Fox game on TV.

Its the nature of the beast. FS1 has more programming than just Big East games to accomodate, that why the schedule is the way it is.

I don't even understand his beef exactly. 8 days off is a big deal to him? Playing games on nights other than Saturday or Wednesday is a problem to him? He doesn't like 1 BE game each weeknight, and would rather have a regimented schedule, stacking games on the same night and time? Each of these should be considered a positive.
