You mean like when Apple & MLS thought it wasn't necessary to have too many day games in cold markets for the first few weeks of the season?
1. Don't remember much stink being raised about it. Probably because they managed to stuff the whole thing under a month with a forgiving format...
You clearly didn't read what I wrote. 2014 and 2018 tournaments were 32 day tournaments. I clearly outlined how a 16x 3 tournament is played in...
