slogging through another brutally
hot, humid, baseball-only summer
here in DC, we finally reached the
end of the annual sports draught…
Football
season kicked off this past weekend
for real. Sure, for some of us,
football actually started the week
before, with many colleges getting
things underway.
(Apparently,
there was a little scheduling confusion
in Michigan, where a game was scheduled
but the Wolverines failed to show.)

population, football season didn’t
really get going until the Colts
and the Saints kicked off on September
6th, with the rest of the league
following suit on the 9th and 10th.
And

of ABC, ESPN, CBS, FOX and the NFL
Network, for the next 16 weeks,
we have the opportunity to get NFL
games on four different days or
nights of the week: Sunday, Monday,
Thursday and, Saturday (at the end

over the competition, the NFL does.
Here’s why.
