It's a little weird that you and Carr are staunch defenders of keeping the schedule this way, where the NFL has changed other far more insignificant shit for much less.
Why? Some stupid sense of tradition? Are you also a blowhard about the Lions always playing on Thanksgiving, too?

Staunch defender (nice phrase used, by the way)?
Hardly. I just don't see the big deal about it. You admitted yourself that it is basically meaningless. If they want to change it, so be it. I just find it strange to want to change something that doesn't seem to matter. As by your own admission.
I am fine with the Lions on Thanksgiving because they brokered the contract with NBC to call the games. They earned it.
