My real question right now is...WHY THE HELL are we playing at 9:30am Sunday??? I know it's London, but why not hold the game at 7/8:30pm London time??? This would give people in the USA aka(the biggest NFL fans) a real chance to watch and enjoy the game...

My guess would be since it's played at a time no other NFL games will be on, the game will get more exposure instead of it being on when a whole bunch of other games are being played.

It will be 6:30am for those here in LA, LTRF. As a matter of fact, most of the NFL games every week start at 10am PST, so 9:30am to me doesn't sound that bad.

Either way, I'll be up early watching and posting!

Well it will be 8:30 here in the Midwest, imagine the west coast, game comes on at 6:30 in the flipping morning!,

Right now I don't even know if we will win four more but if I had to make a wild guess:

Giants
Panthers
Dolphins
49ers.

I don't even feel comfortable about those picks but that's my wild guess.

It's probably wise to pick four games that you think that they have absolutely no business winning because a lot of the time, that's what ends up happening. And the reverse seems to happen a lot as well: we lose to teams a lot of the time that we have absolutely no business losing to.

FWIW...Here's some interesting info...EVERYONE on NY Newsday NFL staff is picking against the Rams...I've noticed that about 75% of the time when they ALL pick against the Rams, we win...If even one of them picks us to win, I get nervous lol...

That's a good point, and I'm not sure why they have to do that either... Why can't the "early" games start at 2 or 3pm EST and the "late games" at like 7pm? I know it would basically kill Sunday Night Football, but it would actually give them a chance to expand to yet another day/night...Why not Friday/Saturday Night Football?

You can't tell me that the NFL wouldn't LOVE the chance at "owning" another night of the week...

Because it's sort of always been an unwritten deal with their talent pool league, aka College Football.

Yeah, I guess so. I personally am NOT a big fan of College Football, so I would LOVE an NFL game on Fri or Sat night and I'm sure millions of others would too...99% of the time I turn on a college game, I'm on another channel within 5 minutes...

Well Friday is not a good night either LTRF for at least a portion of the NFL season. There is thing called High School football that occupies that night and many go to their local stadiums including NFL coaches and some players who watch their own kids playing. Saturday night would not be good either from the perspective Vita mentioned.

I didn't grow up in a place where HS football was big at all...In fact I think the only people in the stands were family of players and a few students who decided to come by and check out a(usually) lousy game...

And while I can understand the conflict with College games on Sat, would the NFL REALLY care about HS games on Fridays? Not sure...
