chico, the players talk a lot of crap about those thursday games. with the amount of money that they generate, would they be willing to negotiate, thru the union, doing away with them? that would also include some sort of reduction in pay? i highly doubt it
No reduction in pay. The amount of games played would still remain the same just on a different day so "generated monies" would still come in.

Body just haven’t recovered 100% from previous week. Double up Monday night games or move to Friday

Maybe...but as fans what's your general feeling of the product Thursday night?
Most teams look unprepared..tired...not focused. Usually its just not good football.
So fuck the fans too I guess.

Thursday night games put about $120k in every player’s pockets. It’s one game a year and they get an extended layoff after that game. Hard to feel sorry for them.

I watched most of the TNF games this yr, yeah they mainly sucked but I was still keeping up with it. I'd rather them have a double header on MNF every week instead.
Thursday night actually had some good games this year.

All the players make good money and I don't feel sorry for any of them .My question is how is that $120 grand different then if those games were played in a double header on Monday night or Sunday night Football? All teams played 16 games so I am trying to understand the money reason here,16 games would be played any way Sunday Night and Monday Night is considerd "Primetime" so how is the money different?
