And nearly 100% covered by Dish/Directv. If it's that important people will switch or Time Warner will finally decide to get on board.

Sucks to be the Big East/ACC/Pac-10.

I love it. Everyone gets a primetime game now, and every team has someone worth watching.

Re: NFL adds more Thursday Nite Games

I don't like it either. Sundays are an "event" for so many people. Moving the games around means one less game on Sunday. I know for people who don't have Sunday Ticket it's better because they get one more game though.

Plus you'll have more teams playing on short weeks, perhaps more chance of injury....I dunno.

I guess I just liked when Thursday games were something special. You get late in the season, and you start having another primetime game.

Whatever, I'll deal with it lol

Re: NFL adds more Thursday Nite Games

The Primetime games last year were largely disappointing overall, and now we are making sure all ****ty teams get one?

But we all know what this is about. Pushing their Network.

There were also a lot of unexpectedly great prime time games. Any given Sunday is proven tine and time again every year.

This.

As a fan of the game, I think it is a nice idea in theory that it is an extra game that everyone will get to see, but as a ridiculously high stakes fantasy football player I absolutely hate it.
