I understand they want Kansas/Gonzaga in a national window, but how do you start with Salt Lake City games at 10:45am local time? So bad. Just go Tennessee/Texas then UNC/Michigan State then Kansas/Gonzaga for your big 3 CBS games.

Luckily that last game in Pittsburgh will tip at right around 10:00 PM local time to make up for it.

It used to be Court TV. They changed the name quite a while ago. It's on most basic cable/streaming packages.
TruTV is being shutdown after the tourney, too, sometime this spring. Impractical Jokers are moving to TBS I think? We've always called Tru "the Impractical Jokers channel", they're on like 18hr a day, minimum. I miss Joe. It's either that or Carbonaro Effect (hidden cam magic show, like David Blaine, but not quite as creepy...)

They aren't shutting it down, they're turning into a sports channel to supplement their other sports contracts. I don't think it's going to work out change anything for ratings but they're keeping it open for now.

As long as Tacoma FD is still on, I'm cool with it.
