Judgement Week

"Judgement Week" on ESPN, can someone please explain wtf Judgement Week is? I realize that March is near which could spell the end for some teams... but really Judgement Week? The bubbles burst and fill up faster than Joe Landardi's internet ink can dry. Last week was Rivalry Week and the closest thing to a rivalry on the family of networks seems to be the UCLA vs Washington game in the PAC 10. Which that conference may just want to hide, seeing as they are on track for 1 NCAA bid this year. Maybe that game should have been during Judgement week instead.

The Kentucky @ Vanderbilt game was during Rivalry Week along with UK Mississippi St. neither of which should be considered a rivalry, considering the UK Vandy games would have been laughed at 3 years ago. This was circa 2006 BC (that's B.efore Billy C.lyde Gillespie) when Vanderbilt hadn't won in Rupp in 20 or 30 years and UK fans thought the world was over when losing to Vandy that first time.

So this Big Monday, Super Tuesday, Wednesday Night Hoops, Thursday Night Showcase, and Saturday Primetime are the same as any other, except its JUDGEMENT WEEK. My question is when will 'plain ol Friday' be back?

  1. ESPN is ridiculous. Everything has to have a title or a name to add dramatic effect. And thanks for reminding all of us of the BCG era. WAH, WAH.
