Depends on if your team is playing and if they win or not........From what I understand, MNF games are spread equally across the NFL, so you’ll get a few dogs in the mix, like a Browns vs Jags game.

What they need to do is restrict the MNF and Thursday night games to Division rivals only...................

My hubby didn’t bail til last year. I’ll tell you what, though, when the football industrial complex loses a die-hard like my hubby, it is screwed.

I guess they figured out that firing someone for criticizing the President is no longer a proper response.

I watched a lot less last year, and there are certain teams that I will not watch at all.

You know how to tell when the NFL has had an epiphany: When Tim Tebow’s agent starts getting frantic phone calls from the NFL.

When your business caters to a certain segment of the population, it is best not to piss them off by calling them names....................

ESPN trying to make a feeble attempt to get conservatives back. I hope they pay Hank a lot of coin, but it’ll take more than a 2 minute music video to get me to tune in.

They must think we’re cheap and stupid to fall for something like this stunt.

I imagine that the conversation started like this:

“Wait. We fired someone for criticizing the President??? What idiot made that decision?”

Well, they had a partial epiphany: the ex-49er QB is still looking for a job...

This is big news.

ESPN is starting to “get it”.

Williams said nothing political on the air on ESPN, he and his father are immensely popular among football fans.

What were they thinking?

Now they have 13 million fewer viewers.

Message received.

FWIW, I think more desperation than partial epiphany. Not to mention an insult to viewers’ intelligence.
