MNF 2 games conflicting

[yisman]

In past years, MNF doubleheader would have a West Coast game so the games wouldn't overlap.

This year we get games overlapping. One game on ESPN, one on ABC. No idea why this happened.

It is the only Monday night this season scheduled this way.

Trying a gimmick to get ABC viewership back up.

Network TV is dying as you know, so they'll launch something new after the game....in that time slot. Pump it up all game long w Kimmel, then cross fingers; looking for lightening in a bottle.

They could have at least tried to time it for halftime

Looking at 3 of these potential overlaps next year.... Format yet to be determined.

“Next year there will be three such occasions, so we’ll see how this works and what the fans say,” he revealed. “Maybe we’ll do them three different ways: one back-to-back, one current, and one overlap?”

1st game is a definite mute with Levy , Riddick and Orlovsky doing the broadcast .

Might be in the minority but kind of like the overlap. Reminds me of an NFL Sunday going back and forth

Wow. Really surprised they couldn't scrape together a better group.

I would be more inclined to purchase NFL ticket again if they would stagger the game times. Be more like NCAA Saturdays games. NFL all games start go to halftime and end all at the same time. At the end of day you never really watched one game flipping from game to game.

Biggins, get a 4th or 5th TV so you can watch more CFB games on Saturday.
