Friday Night Football

The Dolphin and Cheifs game has been moved to Friday the 21st at 7:00pm. I wish that the NFL would have more Friday games.

It interferes with the local High School games.

Re: Friday Night Football

No, I just drop by Moorpark, Westlake or Agoura Hills. The atmosphere is excellent, the games are fun and everyone has a good time.

So much better than anything I saw in England.

TiVO the 'Phins/Chiefs game and watch it when you get home, sans commercials.

You would have needed to find the local rugby teams- great sport and great fun to go to tournaments. And there is that bar thing after the games

Re: Friday Night Football

Yeah, but then I won't move from my couch all weekend.

I already have NFL, NHL, Premiership Soccer (West Ham United) and a lively girlfriend.

And she's got tickets to the UCLA game on Saturday.....

My Step-Brother played for our school Rugby team, I was at quite a few......

University Rugby is cool, but still not the same Rah-Rah that you get at High School game, which I find facinating.

Re: Friday Night Football

The NFL has kicked around the idea of adding more weeknight games. Personally I love the Thursday night openers. A regular Thursday or Friday night game would be great, u can never have enough football!

I bet it will. TV networks live off of the NFL, they'll switch up any schedule to fit an extra NFL game in.

Re: Friday Night Football

I think one reason we don't see more Friday games is that, if I remember right, some law was passed around the time the AFL folded into the NFL preventing the NFL from televising games on Friday night or Saturday if any high school or college football game was being played within 70 (or so) miles of the broadcast station that same day.

I think the NFL agreed to this in exchange for a law exempting their merger with the AFL from antitrust review.

Re: Friday Night Football

ESPN does not have a game this week. I wonder if they'll pick it up...

Re: Friday Night Football

Yeah I like it that its all on sundays. Its easy to make up bullshit for whoever asks and just say I have religion on sundays (which I do).

I really dont think this game will be on nationally, probaboly just the Cheif/Dolphin markets.
