Its like having the playoffs before the regular season. The normal, everyday product can seem a bit dull in comparison.
Over-saturation?

Its hard to say. It's not like the Olympics messes with the SC playoffs. Or the Olympics with basketball messes with the reg season. You would think it would get people pumped where they would otherwise be reading about the preseason exercises.
I think this is the perfect time for the league to maximize. Basketball has no parity with these super teams basically just rolling over the competition. And Baseball doesn't have the McGuires and Sosas juiced up hitting dingers. So why not draw in the other fans?
