August 8th to even week 1 would have been a long time for "plenty else to do and see" to kill time Notes: * the Mirage is closing in July for a three year refurb/construction * wouldn't be surprised if the Copperfield show at MGM closes soon/quickly, based on recent news publications

Liked this as a schedule release video vs the painting thing

KC's wasn't bad, but unsure if it warranted a repeat of last year's. MIA: short, to the point. No fluff. NO: Honest. "Every year we assign the interns the job of the release video". Bonus points for the pretending to not know who Drew Brees was Tennessee's? Still funny - even if they had to edit in other comments to make it work

Bears: funny takes on other teams, including us

Atlanta: horrible Bills: Kinda funny

See all the Schedule Release Videos here. Have heard Tennesse did a sequel. https://uk.sports.yahoo.com/news/2024-nfl-schedule-release-videos-001630412.html?guccounter=1

It was amusing, but won't win any awards this year. You'd think they'd auction off those signed paintings for charity

No national games? Is that right?

Why do we need to watch the NFL Network show? Here's the schedule https://twitter.com/Panthers/status/1790894974994633012

if you live in the local team market, it IS on broadcast TV. These plans really only affect the out-of-market viewers, primarily

would love it if Vegas were Week 5 (Oct 7). Just throwing it out there with fingers crossed

Did a pickup at Mcd counter the other day instead of the drive thru. The staff seemed annoyed about having to deal with people inside the store. Still got a free refill

CONFIRMED: Netflix will carry both Christmas Day games this year and in 2026. Teams announced later today. Good news is you only need to subscribe for one month to watch the two games (if you're out of market*) AND can catch up on all the rest of whatever Netflix is selling that month (*In keeping with the NFL’s long-standing holiday tradition, the Netflix Christmas Day games will air on broadcast TV in the competing team cities.) https://www.netflix.com/tudum/articles/nfl-games-on-netflix

Not a bad promo?

Supposedly, McDonald's and other fast food chains have decided to remove the self-serve beverage machines from the front of house (*leaving it to the individual operator to decide). They'd rather focus on the drive-thru vs having customers come inside, plus maintaining/cleaning a customer-facing soda machine is extra burdensome for the staff. Not specifically mentioned? Those ne'er-do-wells who bring their own cups or otherwise fill a free "water" cup with "expensive" soda and ruined the self-serve convenience for everyone else. https://nypost.com/2024/05/14/lifestyle/mcdonalds-is-getting-rid-of-free-refills-and-more-fast-food-chains-may-follow/

Week 10. Panthers v Giants in their 100th season

Packers go to Brazil. Interesting....

Probably not. Octoberfest runs from Sept 21 to October 6 this year.

Set your DVRs: the international games should be announced sometime between 7a-9a ET on NFL Network https://awfulannouncing.com/nfl/good-morning-football-schedule-release-2024.html

While KC was the early front-runner for Munich by wishful thinkers, analysis suggested it was more than likely going to be the Giants although Week 6 seems.... early

per YouTube: if you were a NFL Sunday Ticket subscriber last season & set up auto-renew, you’ll need to cancel your auto-renew & buy NFL Sunday Ticket again before 5/16 to take advantage of the NFL Draft offer

Chiefs is a home game, as is LAC, ARI, NYG, CIN, and DAL (along with the usual ATL, TB, and NO) one of these will be played in munich

yes, you may need to cancel and resubscribe. I think if you already were set with autorenew, you'd autorenew at the prevailing rate rather than at the sales rate
