Monday Night Football: Why only 16/17ths?

2 comments
Here we are, Monday night, 9 pm, and I feel like there is something missing from my life. What is it? Oh, that's right; Monday Night Football.

Why the hell don't I have Monday Night Football?

For 16 weeks, we have been able to extend our football pleasure for one more night. But not for week 17.

WHY???

Well, apparently the NFL hates its viewers. Throughout Week 17's Sunday, scenarios were bandied about. If New England wins, if the Jets lose, if the Eagles beat the Cowboys.

But imagine if there was a Monday Night game, that was integral to the Playoffs? Imagine if the Jets-Bengals game or the Cowboys-Eagles game was on Monday night? Viewership would have been through the roof! If all the seeds were settled except for ONE final game?

Why can't we have this? It would be too much fun? We need to have the day filled with news about Jim Zorn, Mike Shanahan, Bill Sheridan and whether or not Wes Welker should have been on the field? Come on Heir Goodell, have a little fun!
