Today is the first step towards the realization that we just might make it through until the start of football season in September. Although as fans, we already know the home and away games our favorite teams will be playing, the only thing missing are the dates.
Bucs fans will be watching to see just when we venture to Denver, Chicago and Kansas City. Will there be a prime time game? Will there be a repeat of the 11 days of hell two seasons ago when the Bucs played 3 games in 11 days over Thanksgiving, 2 of them on the road. And most importantly, when is the bye week?
And just how big has the NFL become? Not only does the NFL have it's own network, but they are rolling out a 2 hour schedule release show. A two hour show? Every other sport simply puts up the schedule, and there it is. Any true die hard football fan is eagerly awaiting the schedule today and I'm sure the NFL network is going to trickle out the schedule in dribs and drabs analyzing each weeks games. Looking at potential match ups and trying to deduce a possible outcome at this point is fruitless. But I admit, it's more interesting to speculate on those games than watching the NBA playoffs. More to come.
