I just saw a commercial on Fox for the game on Thursday. It was a with some woman on a plane and talking about not the end of the world if the flight is delayed but she was suggesting it would be the end of the world because of "how big the game is". The NFL and the network clearly care about ratings and want first place Cowboys, Americas team in prime time against the rolling Saints. The NFL clearly wanted the Thanksgiving game to be for first place. It's up to you decide if this is a conspiracy. I say no but sometimes it don't half make you think, when you see obvious stuff missed.
