Why do they go straight to commercials when the game before Duke runs long, while Duke is in the middle of game play, only to go to the game with 3 seconds before the first official's time out, and then show us more commercials?

That was definitely one of the most unconscionable ones of these time-slot slop-overs I've ever seen.
What I can't understand for the life of me is, when these networks pay SO much $$$ for these games, why do they attenuate their own product so horribly? How hard would it be to schedule games for 2:15?

Already sent my complaint in through their website. Hopefully they get many more.
They always do.
They're not interested in the games, only in commercial time.
Right, but w/o the product, who watches commercials?

You guys are surprised by this? This is standard CBS operating procedure. Happens ALL the time in the first couple rounds of the tourney. Game A gets over, they go to commercial, come back to the talking heads who chat for a few minutes, just in time to take you to Game B, which is 30 seconds away from a TV timeout and more commercials.
This is hardly a new practice.
