DenverSportsOmelettelogoLate night games are no fun.

Across all professional leagues and down through the college ranks, late games are scheduled despite fans’ continue protestations. Why you ask? It is because most have jobs they need to get to in the morning and don’t have the luxury of staying up past 11 p.m. on a Wednesday… And let’s be honest here, who really wanted to stay up late to watch Colorado State tip off against Nevada at 9 p.m. in Reno?

We need to tell it like it is: No one likes the late starts. They should be banned like Pete Rose was from Major League Baseball.

If you are still reading this there is a good chance you didn’t see the Nuggets game end last night, so I will break it down for you. They lost.

And if you would like to read about the Nuggets’ game against the Jazz, our beat writer Mike Singer was out there with a stellar game story.

Remember sports fans, just say “Nooooooo, No!” when it comes to late games.
