TV Max cable sucks more than the gravity of the black hole at the center of our galaxy. Luckly my apartment complex is switching to com-cast so I can order some HD stuff to go with my HD TV by the time football season starts.

Wow! That's saying something. But I haven't heard a single good thing about Comcast either. Everyone I know who's using or has used Comcast has had horrible problems with them. Goodluck with that!

Yeah Sudden Link doesnt carry NFL network and their service is TERRIBLE.

just got on the at&t cable, the HD isn't great but getting the nfl network is nice and having foxsports EVERYWHERE is great, i live in leander (nw of austin) and fssw-dallas-houston-san antonio is awesome, i can keep up with everyone in the state now

Can't wait to see this but with Hank singing about the Texans....

Monday Night Intro...

[Hardcore Texan]

I am pumped about it. It's primetime baby. We could still get a flex game to boot.

[imatexan]

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!Cant wait, the city will be rocking and I will be going insane. this will be my first monday night game in Houston!

[Ryan]

I cannot wait for that day. MNF will get crazy here in houston.

[Hardcore Texan]

The day of the MNF game is also my 7 year anniversary.

[GuerillaBlack]

I'm going to go to this MNF game. No way I am missing it.

Its almost like they said, well...lets let the little non-winning team have a brutal front stretch of games, then reward them with only one prime-time game.

No thank you.

Yeah, I don't like this schedule at all. The teams are not so much my concern as is the problem I see with when and where we're playing the games this year.

Two stretches of playing 3-of-4 games on the road is not something I wanted to see. And then we get 3 straight HOME games??? 3-of-5 of the last games are at home, so it's just a whole season of "extremes" if you ask me.

Games 1-4:
3-out-of-4 opening games are on the road: Steelers, Titans and Jax...in THEIR house. Wow. Ravens game is not an automatic W for us.

Games 5-7:
Colts, Lions, Dolphins. Being at home for all these is a bright spot.


Games 8-11:
Another 3-out-of-4 stretch of away games. The Vikes are no joke now that they have a running game. Bengals in our house is favorable. Colts game at Indy, and Cleveland game in their house (AGAIN!!!!).

Games 12-16:
A Favre-less Packers MIGHT be beatable, but we're talking LAMBEAU FIELD...in winter. The rest of the games are actually OK, IMO.

We can be 1-4 right off the bat, IMO. Should be interesting to see how well-prepared the team is in the first 4 or 5 games...I think it'll determine the entire season. This team has not historically been a team that rebounds from adversity well.

Would have preferred to have Dolphins or Raiders sprinkled into the first few games.

Erased due to GP just now learning that MNF is not affected by flex scheduling.

"Thank you" to those who educated me, politely

Dadgum it.

For the trillionth time, MNF games are not on flex scheduling.

They don't flex Monday night games - just Sunday. The logistics of changing days of the week is too much, so no worries about MNF.

You better make a game this year down here, or I will come up there after the season and kick your ASS.

I hope their D's arn't up to speed when we meet these teams. We might be able to sneak up on them. I sure hope so

THAT would be fabulous!! I'm so pumped for that game! You'll have to give me instructions on what to wear, if it's gonna be one of those really COLD games. Maybe being early Dec, it'll just be cold, not blizzard like weather. Regardless, I'm excited! I had totally convienced myself that the GB game would probably be in Sept or Oct. Now, I've just gotta get up enough guts to fly.

I am definitely going to the Pittsburgh game. Most likely will do the GB game and probably Minnesota, Indianapolis and Cleveland. My new territory is the Mid West and will need to go out and see the clients in the fall.
