If people can get used to having the T&F events in Week 1, and the Swimming pushed off until Week 2.

People tend to lose interest in watching after the first week.

much easier to keep interest when they will have so many events in prime time though. Swimming will work out well as will Gymnastics. They often push the bigger track stuff to the late hours so we may see some prime track at the 11-12 slot in the east.. But it also means there will be some good stuff to watch in the mid-3am ish slots. Get up at noon and watch live stuff all day.

Yup.

Why build a brand new one when there's a perfectly good facility just a plane ride away.
