What a terrible time-slot.

Yeah, at 10:30 you cant even go at lunch.

What are they thinking?

Maybe it's in Clark's contract that no media obligations will conflict with dinner.

I suspect the restaurant wants to get it out of the way before the lunch crowd comes in.

Move it to 8:30 am and have it somewhere that serves a good breakfast

It has to be done at that restaurant this year.

I doubt it's the restaurant...why would a restaurant want to hold it at a time that offers almost zero chance to draw extra customers?

It might be that Clark wants to do it right after practice (that is if they're still doing morning practices) so he can get on w/ his daily stuff???

Dreamland has the contract. I expect it to be at 6pm and a different location next year.

Practice is at 3 now. It might be coaches decision. Doubt he really cares what we think one way or the other.

That's fine. Just don't expect anybody to be there.

From what I understand, Coach wanted lunchtime & Dreamland picked the 10:30 time slot.

Which I surmised. They probably have to give up space to set up the radio equipment and they probably don't have to worry about drawing extra customers.

Good.

From what I saw at the couple of times I went to McGee's last year, space usage is minimal by the radio equipment about 1 table worth.

Yep, those three seats are going to make or break them.

If you have a radio show and there is no one listening, does it really happen?

Especially if no one attends *or* listens...

I won't even be able to listen at that time slot. not unless I get real creative at work with my time.

Dreamland already had the contract before Clark got here.
