    Amazon must have paid handsomely for this flex? It sucks for me I don't get Prime.

    I haven't watched one single Thursday night game....outside of the Steelers...since they put it on streaming. So it makes me no difference who else is playing.

    F the money hungry NFL. IMO it is a slap in the face for people who make plans for a game.

    They offer a 30 day free trial if you're interested, that's what I used to watch the Steelers game.

    No kidding. How many people have booked hotel rooms and flights non refundable who are getting hammered by this decision?

    I guess that's why they announced it early to give people time to change their plans, it still sucks though for the fans.

    You would think that the NFL could make schedules where the teams that have a bye play each other the following week. Team playing on a short week play another team on a short week. Granted it will never work perfectly, but it could be much better. A team playing on a Monday night should not have to play a noon game the following Sunday. They should schedule more Saturday games for teams that have to play on following Thursday; put them on the NFL Network. I know TV dictates a lot of matchups and some teams projected to be good are not, while other teams are better than expected, thus throwing wrinkles into the schedule.

    Me. I don't like BBQ sauce but, for some reason, I like the McRib. Just heard yesterday that you'll now be able to buy the sauce.

    It's McDoo Doos. Can't expect much. The combo with the sauce and onions just works.

    What could be awful about chopped and processed pork by products pressed into approximately the shape of a small rack of ribs and artificially colored to look like it has grill marks on it?
    I will admit to having one once. Not drunk, just young and stupid.

    My brother will eat them all day, and he's a picky eater. LoL. Me I never liked them, but I never eat McDonald's....I think the last time I ate there was 16 years ago, on a road trip and it was a Egg McMuffin

    They're a bit like Dennys. You know it's going to be mediocre going in but, it's the same mediocre at all the locations!

    It is a good flex, I don't think anyone would have wanted to see the Broncos play the Chargers when the season began.

    And, by week 16 both Cleveland and Cincinnati may be out of the Playoff race, while both the Broncos and Chargers are going to be battling for Wild Card slots.

    Funny the 1st thing I thought about was DEnver moving to Thursday would help me see the Steelers game in Colorado, but then I checked, and the Steelers play on Saturday, so I don't need the help viewing their game that weekend. :)
