Worst...NFL SUNDAY...Ever (this season)?

[MacDawg]

non-hd games r determined by the networks using criteria such as: records of teams playing / glamour teams / market size / pct% of country getting game....hou/atl ranks low on all those scales so = non-hd game.

I think the Browns are in the top 5 market size. Remember people went all the way to Congress back in 1995 to get the Browns back. So you know they have a very big fan base. That didnt happen for LA. Still no team.
I think the Browns be getting the short end of the stick all the time. It's sad.

Seems we have a well established pattern that it IS the road team determination these days:

Pittsburgh (AFC) @ Arizona (NFC) was on CBS

San Diego (AFC) @ Green Bay (NFC) was on CBS

My badd. GOt it.

actually cleveland is around 26th....the top 10 in local area population is basically: ny,la,chi,sf,dal,hou,phi,was,atl,det.

Worst Sunday ever? What about 10 years ago when there were no games in HD? More importantly, how about the Sunday years ago when Chuck Thompson of the Lions dropped dead of a heart attack on the field? I would say that was probably the worst Sunday ever for the NFL. It's taking time and all of the games will be in HD some day.
