BBBBBOOOOOOOOO BBBBOOOOOOOOOOO
There is nothing worse in the world then a Thursday night game, especially the first game of the season
That Sunday is one of the best days of the year, I invite some friends over smoke a couple of racks of ribs grab a bunch of new fall brews and make a day out of it. Now instead I will have to work during the day (No time to smoke ribs) and will have to wake up at 5am the next day so I doubt if any friends are going to come over and watch the game.
If the NFL is insisting to start it's season on Thursday nights, they should do it on the west coast so the local fans can enjoy themselves.
Or better yet, the opening game should be a match up of the two loosing championship teams and rotate the home game by league. That way the league is guaranteed a good match up to promote. They should also play it on a SATURDAY NIGHT and make a HUGE deal about it, almost like the superbowl.
