49. People in to these games usually have parties they meet for those occasions...

Many aren't simply prepared to just say "Oh, the game's now over. Sorry, gotta leave and go join other friends to watch the debate.". Life doesn't work that way for most of us who aren't already dedicated to the party.

That's the real point of debates is to attract those who might channel surf or have nothing else better to do to hear what the party is all about when they might not otherwise do so. Those kind of viewers will be lost with this kind of stupid scheduling, which I've shown with another post in this thread, isn't just a random accident, as at least two of these debates were scheduled opposite critical sporting events and the one I mentioned right at the same time as the debate in the same state where the debate was located in and site of the first caucuses (Iowa).
