    I’m going to nit pick Symantec’s here. The title of your post needs to be changed to “moved”. It was not “flexed”.

    Flexed specifically is when a Sunday afternoon game is moved to Sunday night. There are very specific rules and time lines for flexing a game.

    Games can always be moved between 1 and 4:25 or whatever.

    From NFL. Com:


    A game scheduled for a Sunday could move from a 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff to an 8:15 p.m. start, but the change would be made and announced no later than the prior Tuesday, 12 days prior. Sunday afternoon games, as in the past, can still be moved between 1:00 and 4:05 or 4:25 p.m. ET.

    Here is the story. (week 10 against Bungles shifted to 4:25)

    The NFL has shifted the times and dates of games this season for COVID-19 reasons, but a change announced on Tuesday has nothing to do with the impact of the coronavirus.



    FOX will televise the game. The network will also be showing the Seahawks-Rams and 49ers-Saints games that kick off at the same time.

    CBS will be showing three games that kick off at 4:05 p.m. ET that Sunday. The Bills will be at the Cardinals, the Broncos will be in Las Vegas, and the Chargers will visit the Dolphins in a busy late window of action.

    That busy schedule is due to CBS televising the final round of The Masters after it was postponed from April to November. They have no 1 p.m. games to facilitate showing the golf tournament.

    Did you get clickbaited and think this was about the Ravens game?


    MODOT would have changed the title and thread by now.


    A vote for @SDOT for Mod in 2021 is a vote to make the TSF great again!

    if we are nit-picking then it is semantics. :shrug:

    the branch of linguistics and logic concerned with meaning. There are a number of branches and subbranches of semantics, including formal semantics, which studies the logical aspects of meaning, such as sense, reference, implication, and logical form, lexical semantics, which studies word meanings and word relations, and conceptual semantics, which studies the cognitive structure of meaning.
    • the meaning of a word, phrase, sentence, or text.
      plural noun: semantics
      "such quibbling over semantics may seem petty stuff"

    It was definitely clickbait for me because Its easier for me to watch the primetime/late games and even though I knew it was a long shot with the Ravens game since no fans had been informed of a change in the allotted number of days required I was still hoping. I guess u have to take what u can get. I'm surprised anything is being flexed if it's not Covid related.

    They should have flexed the Steelers Vs. Rats game. It should be more competitive and is a much bigger rivalry.

    Moreover, on a selfish note it's the only way I would be able to watch it live.

    I just had a vision of “when the **** hits the fan”.

    Feel free to work from there if you see fit.

    But I’d stay away from anything resembling “Make XYZ great again”. That’s making some other guy look like an idiot.

    So here's the double whammy...@doubleyoi already caught your spelling issue. And if you go to Steelers.com, the article says it was flexed. So there's that.
