You Will Be Able to Watch the Patriots Play the Giants On Saturday

Instead of just on the NFL Network.

In an unprecedented television touchdown, the NFL announced today that Saturday night’s Patriots [team stats]-Giants game will be telecast on three networks clearing the airwaves for a coast-to-coast opportunity for fans to see if history can be made.

The NFL Network will beam the game at the Meadowlands simultaneously to CBS and NBC beginning at 8 p.m.

Prior to that decision, the game was only going to be available on the NFL channel and Channel 5 locally.

Now that the Chiefs game has been flexed out of the Sunday night game, I'll still have a night game to watch with the Patriots more than likely completing the first undefeated 16-game regular season on Saturday night. Yes, I am excited for them. No, I will not be actively rooting for them. But I do hate those '72 Dolphins. Any time cocky, loudmouth jocks get their due, I'm all for it.

Cheating bastards

I root against them - they are cheaters.

But I root for the Chiefs every weekend & you see where that's gotten us.

Cheers!

You play to win the game!

The cheating scandal doesn't bother me

They're still beating the hell out of teams by just being better.

I get enjoyment out of watching football being played on such a high level.

I could do without

the whole "let's play our starters with 5 minutes left in the game and were up by 28 but we're still going to call timeouts and try to score again and stuff" - at some point, it gets a little ridiculous, and frankly I am surprised that the front office lets it happen. Those big name starters are business investments.
