Looks like Channel 39 will broadcast the game for those who prefer them over ESPN. Also, it appears NFL Network has shuffled the re-airs around. According to my DirecTV guide the game will now re-air at 11:00pm tonight as well as 3:00pm Tuesday.
I wonder if they are just simulcasting the ESPN feed. It seems like they've done that before. If not...I think I'd stick with the national broadcast anyway and a good HD picture.
Soooo Bret Favre says he thinks he has a broken rib now? Great....time for more ESPN love for him...."he's such a tough guy, playing through the pain..."
I agree that it'll be packed tonight, especially with the Favre angle. I was there for the 2-14 season - actual attendance fell off sharply in the second half of that year. A couple games were 50% tops.
So I just watched the opening segment of Monday Night Countdown...and they have made me forget something. Help me out. Who are Brett Favre and the Vikings playing tonight? Edit: Wow, these guys suck. I mean they really suck. Now I know why I watch NFL Network on Sunday mornings.
Kind of makes me appreciate Tom Brady a bit more. ESPN tried to talk about his "Injury" all week, and he simply said "It feels like I played quarterback the other day, took my usual hits, and sore the next day."
That was the worst pre game show I have ever seen. And did Berman just say that Reliant Stadium is no longer next to the Astrodome?
You would think with all the "hype" for monday night football, more seats would be filled. Packers 34 Texans 17
