Cowboys @ Giants to Kick off the 2012 Season

[Neophyte]

Cowboys @ Giants Opening Game

Well, I guess the NFL didn't want to risk the Super Bowl Champs losing the opener for the first time in this new format (Champs are 8-0 since the start of them hosting the Opening Thursday game) so they gave the Giants a team whose number they have.

I remember when they used to make the defending champs go on the road for their opener...and walk barefoot through the snow to get there. Uphill. Both ways.

Meh. Today's NFL is soft.

Meh.

After the Redskins beat 'em both nobody'll remember how the opener went.

Why on a Wednesday, when it's been on a Thursday for so long ?
And is the only scheduled game announced ?

Why on a Wednesday, when it's been on a Thursday for so long ?
And is the only scheduled game announced ?

A programming conflict with the Democratic Convention I believe.

Thursday night, the president speaks at the dem convention.

Hope this will be one of many losses for Mara in 2012.
