Off Days

This schedule is killing me!

It's bad enough that there's been an off day between every series. But, the games have been all over the country, and at different times. We had a suspended game finish up in the middle of an afternoon. Games have started past our bedtimes. Games have finished past our bedtimes. Games have been in the middle of the day. Just look at this stretch the Sox are in. Starting on Friday Aug 9, the Sox calendar has gone:

7:10 start
4:05 start
1:05 start
7:10 start
7:10 start
1:10 start
off
7:10 start
7:10 start
1:05 start
off
7:10 start
7:10 start
1:10 game completion for 12 minutes
10:10 start
8:40 start
4:10 start
off
8:40 start
8:40 start
off.
10:07 start
9:07 start
4:07 start

How are the players ever supposed to get into any sort of rhythm? How do their body clocks ever get regulated? How do the get their gametime routine down? If they always do the same things before a game, they're going to be driving themselves crazy figuring out when to get things rolling.

More important, how am I ever supposed to remember when the games are? Every time I turn the game on, it's already over...or not on for another few hours. It's a mess.

How have you been handling it?
