This is dumb because Thursday is the prime Sitcom night, all the best shows are always on Thursday night.



DVR

And really... a lot of those sitcoms and the NFL have two completely different viewer bases.

I keep waiting on them to attack Saturdays more.

I know that Saturday is traditionally college football... but it seems like an untapped market for the NFL to me.

Though Thursdays aren't horrible

Don't Thursday night games basically cut the rest/practice of each team in half? Then you get 10 days of rest after one of them right?

They wont play Saturday nights because of College football. Friday nights would be better though than Thursdays... as long as the games werent on the NFL network.

This could also be incentive for NFL to pull out of basic/expanded cable package offerings and require we pay extra for it



I like football but I doubt I am the only fan that would just stop watching if they went a pay to watch route.

I could watch the NFL network every Thursday night game. But I wouldn't have it any other time. Maybe i'm just lucky?

It sucks for those with the NFL network as well since the NFL network broadcast sucks ass compared to all the other stations that carry the NFL.



You actually listen to the announcers?

Another NFL game to watch every week. I'm all for it.

The Thursday night college games will probably get better numbers than the NFL game.

stupid pathetic move.

not only is this annoying for fantasy football, but as cutt pointed out, NFL Network SUCKS!

THAT, and i can PAY for the NFL Network on my Comcast, but due to their beef with NFLN the games are STILL blacked out!



uhh... you got a source on that?

turned my cynical penis into a happy vagina
Then after an Oatmeal Cranberry and Double Chocolate,
it made my new vagina spontaneously sing the Trolololo Song in an elevator.
