Hurry-up Vikings, we ain't getting any younger!

It starts at 6:30 AM in Arizona. The super early starts don't seem well thought out by the league.

In the age of the DVR I doubt the networks generate much ad revenue from the early starts.  I would imagine most people will record it and skip past the commercials.

I will be recording it as we are burying my sister in law at sea that morning.  Mornings are preferred over night games on the east coast IMO.

Bingo...My plan this Sunday right here.

I cant watch any NFL game live anymore. I start watching Viking away games about midway through the 2nd quarter so I can ff through commercials all game.

Thx.   Sad deal.  My wife lost her Dad in his 40's, her only brother in his 40's and her only sister in her 40's.  Crazy stuff.  One more year and my wife will be 50.  Will be a big deal for her I suspect.

I'll be recording the game and going to the beach with my wife during the game. Perfect time in the morning to go. A mimosa or two, the ol' lady in a two-piece and the sound of the water: beats the shit out of watching football.

Same here.  Wonder if it will be on TV.  And should I just stay up all night?  Beverages might sound better that way than for a 6:30 wakeup call.
