UK games. Who the fuck wants to wake up at 8:30 (6:30 for west coast) to watch a game? I'm just glad the assinine idea of moving the games so early didn't happen until after my Vikings played over there.

They were always at noon, but the gimmick of having it on so early was too much of a thrill for our commissioner.
EXACTLY!

UK game. They don't care about our football and we shouldn't have a team there ever.

Yeah, it wouldn't work. No players would want to go there either.

Soccer is more popular here than Football is there and that is saying a lot!

That does say a lot! I'm sure the majority of people who attend in the UK are from the United States.

I have to admit my Scotch had me thinking how the University of Kentucky had any relevance in this thread.

UK games. Because I always wake up and say "f**k" since I always forget to set my fantasy lineup in time due to that game.

Yeah I used to like it better when they started at 1 PM EST with the rest of the other game. This stand alone game crap is depressing

TNF is stupid but the UK games are complete and absolute 100% bullshit.

LA is supposed to have a home game, yet they have to travel FURTHER across the country and deal with an extra 3 hour time zone difference compared to the NY Giants? That's bullshit.

I'm just glad Seattle is a small market team so they wont have to go over there, likely.

It's a stadium issue. If you guys keep having great attendance, you will be fine, it's the weaker teams or the ones with older buildings that have to be the ones to suffer.

UK games are the worst. I don't think I have watched more than 5 minutes of one that has been played unless the Broncos are playing in the game. Thankfully that hasn't happened since I think 2010. They just have the feel of a preseason game with the crowd very much not in it and usually just not the highest quality of play. Yes you could say the same about the quality of play on the Thursday games but I at least will watch those if it is a decent match up.

Probably doesn't help as VikingFan2k2 said that most of the teams going are teams struggling to sell out their stadium anyway so not usually the who's who of teams.

I already made plans to go out Sunday morning during the Bengals/Skins game
