gridironmike Posted March 27, 2006 Author Share Posted March 27, 2006 I have a strange question for you. What does that XM thing mean? Official sponsor of the redskins, they can't do any of the games and Sirius has all of the rights to the NFL and all SKINS games. Well, it is what it is. If you go to the games, they give away XM receivers for answering musical trivia questions and the XM golf cart trolls the parking lots giving away goodies. They are a D.C. based company that sponsors the Redskins. I like XM and subscribe to the service, and I thought the graphic fit my sig better than just an XM logo. also what is with nfl network having games? i dont think i get nfl network on comcast digital cable which sucks because i want to see some of those other games besides skins games http://www.nfl.com/nflnetwork/story/9193472 "NFL Network to televise regular-season games (Jan. 28, 2006) -- NFL Network, the NFL's two-year-old television channel, will begin airing a "run up to the playoffs" package of eight primetime regular-season NFL games starting in the 2006 season, Commissioner Paul Tagliabue announced. The eight-game package will consist of primetime games airing from Thanksgiving to the end of the regular season on Thursday and/or Saturday nights."

HapHaszard Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 Redskins to Host Vikings In MNF Opener http://www.redskins.com/news/newsDetail.jsp?id=16127 By Gary Fitzgerald Redskins.com March 27, 2006 For the second time in four years, the Redskins and FedExField will be part of the NFL's annual kickoff weekend extravaganza. The league has announced that Washington's 2006 season opener will be against the Minnesota Vikings on Monday night, Sept. 11, at 7 p.m. ET at FedExField. The NFL will announce the full schedule sometime in April. The Redskins-Vikings game will be part of the first regularly scheduled Monday Night Football games on ESPN. The Redskins-Vikings contest will be followed by an AFC West meeting between the San Diego Chargers and Oakland Raiders at 10:15 p.m. ET. Ladell Betts against the Vikings in the 2004 season finale. (Don Wright Photo) Also, the NFL announced the Thanksgiving schedule and the Redskins are not part of the package of games that day. Earlier this offseason, there had been several published reports suggesting that the Redskins would take on the Dallas Cowboys on Thanksgiving day. For the fifth year in a row, the NFL will kick off its season on a Thursday night, with the Super Bowl champion Pittsburgh Steelers hosting the Miami Dolphins on Sept. 7 at 8:30 p.m. ET. The game will be broadcast nationally on NBC. Two other nationally televised games were announced by the NFL on Monday. On Sunday, Sept. 10, the Jacksonville Jaguars will host the Dallas Cowboys at 4:15 p.m. ET in a game broadcast by FOX. Later on Sunday, Sept. 10, the New York Giants will host the Indianapolis Colts--a matchup that features quarterback brothers Eli and Peyton Manning--at 8:15 p.m. ET on NBC. The Thanksgiving day games are as follows: Miami at Detroit, 12:30 p.m. ET (CBS); Tampa Bay at Dallas, 4:15 p.m. ET (FOX); and Denver at Kansas City, 8 p.m. ET (NFL Network). The Redskins and Vikings last played in January 2005 in the regular season finale for both teams. The Redskins won that contest at FedExField by a score of 21-18 and were led by the running of Ladell Betts, who had 118 rushing yards and one touchdown. The Vikings have undergone significant change since that meeting. Brad Childress has taken over as head coach and the team has traded quarterback Daunte Culpepper to the Dolphins and wide receiver Randy Moss to the Oakland Raiders. In September 2003, the Redskins were part of the NFL's kickoff weekend when they hosted the New York Jets in the nationally televised Thursday night game. The Redskins defeated the Jets 16-13.

gridironmike Posted March 28, 2006 Author Share Posted March 28, 2006 Yes, a Monday Night doubleheader. I thought I read a thread on here that listed the Redskins preseason opponents (not the schedule, just the teams that were scheduled). I went back to the first of January and couldn't find it.

Heidenreich Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 Peter King wrote today that teams are only allowed 1 MNF game this season... or maybe he means that all teams must appear at least once... That's interesting. That means that the marquee game of the week is now on Sunday nights, & Monday night football is just there. It'll take some getting used to having Arizona, Detroit, or the 49ers on Monday night football.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ellis Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 this scheduling is kinda irritating. I looked forward to MNF, but now it's looking to be just another game.

Are there 34 teams in the league now? my thoughts exactly......... even if all 32 teams play a MNF game, that still leaves 4 open slots (36 teams will play MNF this year... 17 regular season weeks + 2 teams for the opening double dip)..... so I guess 4 teams will play twice.... stupid if you ask me.... it leads to matchups like Skins-Vikes.... not that I'm not excited, but Skins-Boys or Skins-Giants gets a lot more hype.

gridironmike Posted April 5, 2006 Author Share Posted April 5, 2006 http://www.nfl.com/nflnetwork/story/9357380 NFL.com and NFL Network to unveil regular-season schedule (April 4, 2006) -- For the third straight season, the National Football League's release of the regular-season playing schedule will be made into a two-hour television show on NFL Network's signature show, NFL Total Access. The show will air this Thursday, April 6, at 2 p.m. ET. It will also be posted simultaneously on NFL.com, broken down by date, by team and by broadcast network. The NFL Total Access Schedule Show Presented by GMC will be hosted by Rich Eisen, alongside guest analyst Steve Mariucci. NFL Total Access will announce the 2006 regular-season playing schedule on a week-by-week basis, highlighting the new changes taking place this season, including flexible scheduling, the addition of NBC and NFL Network as broadcasters, plus all the compelling matchups. more at link http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=2397614 Flexible NFL could create better Sunday match-ups Associated Press NEW YORK -- The NFL has its plan for eliminating those not-ready-for-prime-time matchups that too often sneaked onto national television. The league plans to hold off scheduling Sunday night games in seven of the final eight weeks -- just as playoff races start heating up -- to ensure the best games are played on NBC. The league has long wanted some kind of flexible scheduling, but could never implement one until now. For Weeks 10-15 and Week 17, the final regular-season weekend, all Sunday games will be listed with start times of 1 p.m. or 4:05-4:15 p.m. ET. The league must then announce which match will be played Sunday night at least 12 days before the date of the game. The lone exception is the season finale on Dec. 31, when the switch must be made no later than six days before the game. more at link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
