Wednesday is the new Thursday

ATTENTION: CSA Basketball Group - Thursday Edition
I am proposing a change of schedule from Thursdays to Wednesdays. This is in lieu of the following reasons/arguments:

  1. Some players can not play on Thursdays due to recent changes in their schedules.
  2. A Wednesday-Saturday interval distributes the sessions in a week more logically.
  3. A Wednesday-Saturday interval provides more time for rest in between the days.
  4. Traffic is heavier in Makati on Thursdays compared to Wednesdays.*
  5. In the NBA, Wednesday games are more competitive compared to Tuesday games. This means that we won’t have to miss the reruns of the Wednesday games which are shown on BTV on Thursday nights. Would you rather watch boring games like New Orleans v. Charlotte and New Orleans v. Memphis, or superb games like Miami v. Washington and Phoenix v. Dallas.
  6. In 2007 and 2008, There are 7 Thursdays that fall on the 15th, 30th or 31st which are pay days. This means that traffic is significantly heavier on these days. None fall on a Wednesday in 2007 and 2008.
  7. In case a Wednesday session will not push through, a backup Thursday session can be easily set. With the current setting, if come Thursday we realize we won’t make ten players, we don’t have any other choice but to wait for Saturday.
  8. In the US, it is known that Thursday nights are prime time nights. That is why hit TV shows such as Friends and Seinfeld were scheduled every Thursdays. So why are we out all night on Thursdays?
  9. Torrents of our beloved TV show Lost comes out every Thursday morning. Before you go to work/school you start the download so that when you come home from work/school you can enjoy it. Why would you take that away from yourself?

Should the move happen, I shall pay for one session (7PM-10PM) in March.
Please vote accordingly:
