This next post is one that I'm going to encounter this Thursday night and on my drive back from Gatlinburg, TN yesterday its one that gave me pause. By the way if you eat at the "Pancake Panty" is cash only.
What do you do when two teams that you root for are playing on the same night. On Thursday night the Phillies will be playing at 8:30 and the Clemson Tigers will be playing Wake Forest on ESPN at 7:30 or so, which means I have the dreaded overlap. Now for purposes of this debate lets say that I dont have the luxury of going to a local bar and having two giant screen televisions side by side and lets also assume I don't have picture and picture at home or more than one television set in my living room.
How should the decision making flowchart go? Does regular season versus postseason competition matter? The Phillies will playing the Dodgers in the NLCS and Clemson will playing regular season game 5. Clearly the more important competition is the one involving the Phillies. Does the amount of competition matter? The Phillies have played over 162 ball games to this point and Clemson only plays 12 regular seson games. That means close to 8% of Clemson's season will be played on this one night while less than 1% of the Phillies season will be played on that one night. Hmmmmmmm.
This could be a tougher choice than the Pepsi Challenge.

If you eat at the pancake PANTY as you call it, then it truly better be cash only. That stuff is not legal. Nice Freudian slip there TwoBeer
Are you talking about the Pancake Pantry in Nashville? I've been there but never seen any panties while there!
