I hate Thursday night Football !

RobCrossRiver56 : 9/16/2021 3:15 pm
rant over..
I agree.  
Red Dog : 9/16/2021 3:19 pm : link
Strongly.
I've never liked it  
Greg from LI : 9/16/2021 3:20 pm : link
I have shit to do during the week and the quality of the football is usually pretty bad.
Except for Week 1 and Thanksgiving  
NYerInMA : 9/16/2021 3:24 pm : link
there should be no TNF. It's too short a turnaround. Purely a ratings grab.
Yeah...

... I have never been a fan of the Thursday night games.

And I am absolutely phucquing DREADING this one tonight.
I'd rather Friday night lights football and MUCH rather  
Dinger : 9/16/2021 3:33 pm : link
Saturday football (damn College games). Rather a Thursday night game than starting off the week on a Sunday night or Monday night game.
Hate it. Just hate it

And I gotta hit gym around 530 AM tomorrow...
Hate it  
US1 Giants : 9/16/2021 3:39 pm : link
and looks like it is only on the NFL Network. I don't get that channel anymore.
Bash me if you want but  
Jints in Carolina : 9/16/2021 3:43 pm : link
My interest already in watching them play is declining.

I barely have interest tonight.
Me too  
Mdgiantsfan : 9/16/2021 3:44 pm : link
...but I am excited to see Big Blue tonight! Hopefully we get that bad taste out of our mouths after last week's poor showing.
I kinda wish this team had more time to prep and stew on a big loss  
Zeke's Alibi : 9/16/2021 3:56 pm : link
so our advantage there is mitigated. But as a fan, it's nice to be able to move onto the next bitchfest.
Okey Dokey

Totally agree...

Dislike everything about TNF.

Just another case of the owners (1) not caring about safety and (2) pulling the wool over the players' eyes.

The NFLPA is such a disaster.
Usually any football is good football,  
Section331 : 9/16/2021 4:08 pm : link
but yeah, the TNF quality of football is pretty low. That's one of the reasons I expect tonight's game to be especially ugly. 2 division rivals, both mediocre, and then add in playing on a Thursday. It's a recipe for ugly.

To be fair, the quality of football in this game would be bad no matter which night of the weak it was played. Might as well get it over with.
TNF is the only time Ill stop watching  
GIANTS128 : 9/16/2021 4:12 pm : link
if the game gets out of hand and the it looks like a loser. Sleep is more important and that point.
it sucks. Thanksgiving is the only day it makes sense.  
Victor in CT : 9/16/2021 4:15 pm : link
I never watch it unless the Giants are playing. And I'll probably only watch the first half. Games end too late for me on a work day.
Agree

I love it  
TyreeHelmet : 9/16/2021 4:22 pm : link
Actually looking forward to tonight.
Don’t disagree, but  
Pepe LePugh : 9/16/2021 4:25 pm : link
The mini-bye following tonight’s game could be huge. Graham’s preseason presser indicated he was worried about lack of practice with all the key pieces in place. Basically said he expected a slow start IIRC. OL obviously in the same boat. If CBA doesn’t hamstring practice opportunities following midweek game, we could see a lot of things cleaned up.

...quality sucks, matchups suck (because every team needs to appear), and it's just bad for the player's health.

Plus, what do I have to look forward to Sunday now? LOL

BAD PRODUCT (but I watch).

When the Giants go up 14-0 you'll be begging back in :)

I'm out of market. Glad that people in the Giants market can watch.

Just don't watch it.

Your decisions decide what priorities you have. Or something.
A bigger reason to hate TNF on NFLN  
KeoweeFan : 9/16/2021 5:58 pm : link
is that ATT TV, Now DIRECTV-Stream dropped NFLN in April.
(Couldn't agree on renewal price).
I like it  
Kev in Cali : 9/16/2021 5:59 pm : link
Gives me a chance to watch a giants game out of market. Go Giants!!!
It’s horrible  
UConn4523 : 9/16/2021 6:02 pm : link
nothing like 4 days rest (technically just 3) to keep guys nice and fresh for the season. It’s always been a mostly bad product and I can find other stuff to do Thursday night so I never need it to be on. Surprised they haven’t added a Wednesday night game yet.
You don’t nt hate it  
I Love Clams Casino : 9/16/2021 6:05 pm : link
You are just unhappy that the Giants won’t do well tonight, But it has nothing to do with Thursdays. I hate Sundays at 1 and 4. I also hate Sundays at 8:25 PM, and I also hate Monday nights… But I really hate is that this football team has stunk for the past 10 years

I hate next weeks TNF game too. This has nothing to do with the Giants.
I love the TNF game…  
trueblueinpw : 9/16/2021 6:21 pm : link
I’ve been looking forward to this Giants game all day. But even when it’s not the Giants I love the Thursday night game. It’s football! There’s no NFL game I won’t turn on and watch.
I love football so I’m OK with Thursday nights,  
aimrocky : 9/16/2021 6:23 pm : link
I don’t like it when the Giants are on Thursday, but I look at it as giving me Sunday to relax and fully use Sunday Ticket and red zone.
