BaumerJet Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 NFL still working on 2010 regular season schedule; release unknown By Don Banks, SI.com The complicated riddle that is the NFL regular season schedule has not been solved yet, and all we know for sure at this point is it will be out before the NFL draft begins next Thursday night in New York City. League schedule-makers continue to work on the 256-game slate, and a league spokesman confirms to SI.com that the NFL now hopes to announce it by "later this week or early next week." "They are still working on it. And if we had it done, we'd be rolling it out," NFL spokesman Greg Aiello said Tuesday. "We're still shooting for later this week or early next week at the latest." The NFL Network will televise a schedule release show in primetime on the day the league rolls out its schedule and that programming has yet to be nailed down. The league is likely to announce the timing of that program a day or two in advance in order to publicize the show. 2010 opponents for all 32 teams have been known since the close of the 2009 regular season. The drama of the schedule release, however, is the first announcement of how each team's season will unfold and which games will be nationally televised in primetime. http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2010/football/nfl/04/13/schedule.release/index.html So let me get this straight, the 2010 NFL Schedule show will probably not be seen until 7:00 Wednesday, April 21, 2010?!!

Klecko73isGod Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 That's the most moronic thing ever. Why don't these idiots just be honest that they are attempting to generate ratings for the NFL Network? They do this every year, right? Why would this year take any longer than past years? Because the NFL wants to put on a show on their ridiculously useless cable channel and is taking too long to complete the program. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every year the NFL has the schedule locked up by early March & the networks scramble at the last minute to request special dates for specific match ups. That is what is going to someday wreak the NFL! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klecko73isGod Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 Anybody get the feeling that they had the schedule locked and then the Jets made the Santonio Holmes trade and NBC realized the Jets were playing at the Steelers this year and the game was not scheduled for a Sunday night and now there's a fight going on between CBS and NBC to get that game?

More likely I'd say that it was until Woody started getting into Goodell's face about the stadium opener the NFL had every intentions of ****ing over the Jets and giving them a week two home opener. The Monday night game was probably come up with on the spot to save face and now they're rearranging the whole damn schedule to get it in there.

faba Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 It is official April 20 ESPN.com Archive NFL opponents The NFL schedule will be released on April 20, but we already know each team's opponents for the 2010 NFL season. Check them out. Story The NFL will officially announce its 2010 schedule Tuesday, the league said Wednesday. The schedule release, which increasingly has become treated like a national holiday, will be released at 7 p.m. ET. The release of this year's schedule was delayed as the NFL considered whether to put more divisional games toward the end of the season. Commissioner Roger Goodell has been concerned about teams that already have clinched division titles tanking games at the end of the season to rest their players for the playoffs. He wants all 17 weeks of the season to have competitive games. The result of that effort will be revealed Tuesday, two days before the start of the NFL draft in New York. ESPN will cover the schedule release live with a SportsCenter Special, beginning at 7 p.m. ET Tuesday on ESPN2. John Clayton is a senior NFL writer for ESPN.com.

While Goodell is a money grubbing douche that is trying hard to kill the golden goose, I have to give him credit for looking for ways to avoid the "mailing it in" scenario at the end of the year.
