Why are they so hard to find? I can't get DirecTV so I want to know if I have to go out to watch my team play or not. Why is this such a secret?

I wish CBS would lose the contract on these games. You can't plan ahead, or if your game is on and they think it isn't exciting enough they take you to a different game. I found that this is true id you purchase the package! Too bad this is an exciting time of the year. At least there is ncaa.org

CBS needs to leave this to the professionals. Their coverage bounces all around which only appeals to the ADHD type of Basketball fan.
tv announcers

Could you please get game announcers that aren't so partial to one team. All some of them do is brag up one team and have nothing goog to say about the opponent. It is very disgusting to have to listen to them being so partial. I thought announcers weren't supposed to showing partiality so obvious. Sometimes I am for the team that they are bragging about, but I still don't it is fair to the other team.
thank you

While there was no "news" in
While there was no "news" in this (basically same schedule as always), it gets me excited just reading it.
