Football deleterious

Peter King thinks (he thinks) that Green Bay is in serious trouble. That's the under statement of the week. The Packers are a train wreck in progress. At least we've got company, the Raider's are looking pretty sad too.

King also thinks the Monday Night games should start at 8 PM ET. I think perhaps he ought to ask the league what they think. I'd love to see the audience numbers for the western and pacific time zones if they move. Any significant drop in first half numbers would mean less money for the ads and turn a marginally profitable deal for Disney into a money pit. And that means less money for the league (owners and players alike) the next time the television contract comes up.

Anyway...

I watched about one hour of the game on fast forward. It's the funniest thing I've done with the EyeTV thus far. Madden never stops filling every available moment and after about five minutes I could actually tell the difference between Madden and Michaels.
