All national games are decided before the season starts.

But that seems an awfully archaic way of doing it these days. Why isn't it decided week to week, so we can see the teams that play well?

I'm sorry, but wasn't last week's game the Packers?

However, we were not in HiDef last week & we won.

They're changing that for the first time this year. Starting in week 10, about a month from now. The "national" 4:15 ET game and the Sunday night game on NBC will both be decided a week in advance.

Nope. It was the Iggles and the TO-love fest machine.

yep, and I am glad it is a late game. Tee off at 8:30, plenty of time for a few cold ones after the round before the game. :D

Me too. I much prefer the Chiefs play the 3 PM game. It lets me do other things in the morning/early afternoon.

Maybe he's just getting ready for the Christmas season.

Soon, he'll put some holly and bells around the rep boxes. Festive!

Agreed, but the noon games are better in December and January than they are now. When it is 10 degrees out, I will have the Firplace going and be in front of the TV all day anyway.

I turned it red. I'm a Chiefs fan. I'd really rather have alternating red and gold boxes.

Although the decision of the local CBS affiliate to carry the Miami game is still a little mind boggling, at least the ABC affiliate has finally announced they'll be showing Missouri @ ATM on Saturday.
