I think this is great! The more NFL games they can get on TV the better.

Goodell says league expanding prime time games - NFL - Yahoo! Sports

I personally like Thursdays reserved for college games. They usually have decent matches showing.

You enjoy those MAC games? Personally, I would rather watch the NFL.

It's not MAC games. Wisconsin opened the season on Thursday. Then most Thursday ESPN games were either Big East, Big 12, or ACC games. Many times a top 25 team was playing.

Here was ESPN's Thursday lineup last season.

UNLV v 11 Wiscy
Arizona v 9 Okie State
3 LSU v Miss St
NC St v Cincy
16 USF v Pitt
Cal v 9 Oregon
USC v Cal
UCLA v Arizona
Virginia v Miami
FSU v BC
10 Va Tech v 21 GA Tech
NC v 8 Va Tech
25 Texas v TAMU
23 W VA v USF

There were no MAC matchups there.

No it doesn't. and there well be some added incentives and bigger games, easier play and more availability in the nfl next year. and if you re bored now, watch how much bigger fantasy nascar and golf get with easier barriers.

ok, you got me there. It seemed like everytime I looked for a football game on Thursday nights it was a MAC or MTN West teams playing.

[H8IAST8]

why can't there be 2 games on the same night?

[Mooch]

cuz the NFLs ego is too big

This.
Also, as an old man, it's one more game I won't be able to watch start to finish. If I gotta be to work in the morning, I can't stay up late enough to see it end. Already miss Monday night, and Sunday night finishes. Now this.

Oh well, it's inevitable. NFL network is slowly taking over the game.
