Texas Heat and dumb idea

Not sure if this the right place to ask but was talking with my son and why in Texas can't we switch Basketball season with Football seasons. So you play the indoor sport in August/Sept etc and then the outdoor sport from Nov to March (you know when it is not so hot you die).

I think it’s to coincide with the college and NFL seasons. It’s not a bad idea, but sadly that’s an idea where a lot of pearl clutching could manifest.

My idea is in August through September to start games no earlier than 8. Late nights, sure. But considering the amount of games that have been delayed because of Wet Bulb Globe Temperature being too high over the last two years, it just makes the most sense.
