Yeah, I could go to 9:30 mass, which none of my family attends. Additionally, my family and I like to spend time together after church, either at another member's home or eating at a restaurant. Not all of my family is as yoked about Saints football as I am; many of them are content with watching on nice televisions. After spending four of the previous five seasons away from New Orleans, I'm trying to attend as many games as I can make, but not via sacrifice of my family time. I'm sure I'm not the only one who feels this way (a reference to the title of the thread! wow! coherence!)
A 3:15 game would allow those of us that go to late church ample time to spend with the family before having to deal with the hassles of parking (which is essentially negated if you don't mind walking). And what do those that attend earlier services lose?
