3:15 games

**funkyasflea** · 12-09-2007, 10:25 AM

Does anyone else get annoyed by 3:15 games?

I swear I saw last night that the game was at noon.
(I thought it was 3:15, but then I saw that last night and was happy)
Then I woke up early today all excited for the game.
Got dressed, grabbed some coffee, started setting my TiVo, and I saw that it was at 3:15.
I feel like I am going to be waiting forever now!
And it is not like an evening game when you can make dinner and watch it too.
i don't really want to watch the Packer's game that they are showing either.
I wish they had a game that mattered in our playoff race, like the detroit game, or philly.

Its a nice change.
That way I can get all the stuff done around the house before tha game.
Because when we play at 1:00 EST, I never feel like doing crap the rest of the day.

I suppose yeah, I am doing some cleaning and laundry right now.
i am going to play hockey before the game too.
I joined up with an adult hockey league, and I need to brush up on my skills...considering I skated twice this week........first time in about 6 years now......lol

I like it because then the game is usually on TV because the Packers play at Noon most of the time. Plus I do not have to start drinking so early.

The Vikings game is NOT at 3:15 - it is at 3:05.
You'll miss the first 10 minutes if you wait until 3:15!!

Very annoying...could be worse. Look at what we get in NY today...early games Giants v Eagles (not bad)and Packers v Raiders (who cares?); Jets v Browns (ditto who cares?) and no Fox game. Really bites.

Giants-Eagles is your FOX game.
This is a CBS double-header Sunday, so you'll only get one FOX game.

Try living on the east coast! It's 4:15 for us...I hate the late games.

I hate no fox double header!

Maybe locally at 3:05. But nationally they won't show it until the first game is over. Sometimes you miss the first 10 minutes anyway. That to me is the most annoying thing about a late game.
I have Sunday ticket but it doesn't matter because it just picks up the same national feed.
Just hope the first game doesn't go into overtime.
