However, there are only four West Coast teams, plus two in the Mountain time zone. Either those 6 teams end up on Thursday nights much more often than the other 26, or some games get played in the Eastern and Central time zones with late start times, or they have the two Thursday night games going head-to-head to some extent. On that middle option: granted, "Monday Night Football" kickoffs were just past 9:00 Eastern for years, but with today's longer game times, if they were going to do the second game of the doubleheader at 9:00, they'd probably want to start the first game at 5:30 or even 5:15 to avoid overlap, and that seems a bit early. -- Jim Ellwanger <train...@ellwanger.tv> <http://www.ellwanger.tv> -- -- TV or Not TV ....
