Conflicting Sports

I try to follow some of the the Texas Tech athletic events, specifically football, men's basketball and especially women's basketball http://www.texastech.com/index-main.html.  In fact, I have season tickets for the women's basketball games.  At this time of year, sometimes there are conflicts in schedules with these sports.  In the past, sometimes a football game occurred about the same weekend as a basketball game.  And, at times, a basketball game time has been changed so as not to conflict with a football game.

Tonight, quite unusually, the men's basketball game conflicts in part with the women's game: the men are playing in Lubbock, and have a game that started an hour later than usual.  The women are playing in California, and their game starts two hours later than usual here (although at 7 PM in California).  The men's game is on radio and being live cast on ESPNU.  I suspect I could watch it on the computer if I were not using the computer for blogging. The women's game is only being broadcast on the radio. 

I will listen to the men's game until it is time for the women's game to be broadcast. I hate having to choose, but my allegiance is stronger for the women's team.

I wish the athletic department would do a better job of not scheduling conflicting games.
