From
where I sit it looks like the NFL should drop one of it's weekday
games...Monday's.
There
has been all kinds of whining about how rotten the Thursday night
games have been. Sure, they haven't been award winning, but we
have been subjected to some brutal Monday nighters too. Let's break down the numbers. Denver,
Philadelphia, the Giants and Jets have played on both. Only the
Broncos and Jets are over .500. Five teams from Thursdays have
winning records. Including Kansas City, Seattle and San Francisco
with a combined 3 losses. Of the three Monday night teams above .500
only New Orleans and Cincinnati are more than a game over. Atlanta,
Washington, Oakland and Pittsburgh are all 2-4, while Houston is 2-5,
Minnesota a pathetic 1-5. Thursday night teams are 16 games over the
break even mark...Monday's representatives an embarrassing 7 under.
Yes, Monday night football is a tradition. Sure, Thursdays are new.
But, the Giants and Vikings were brutal Monday night. Never mind
sitting in a bar feeling like you're at the game...it felt like the
players were just as drunk. I want to see a good game, between two good teams. And right now, that's on Thursday night.
At
least that's how I see it...and I sit in the cheap seats.
