You two are why those of us who are capable of rational, original thought choose not to live on either coast. Doing so would mean having to deal with d-bags like you on a daily basis. I hope you enjoy the tax refund you received on the taxes you did not pay last year. Have a nice nap on your union job tomorrow!

Predictable that the white trash, trailer park losers, with missing teeth, would weigh in on the NFL respecting the President of the United States.

More than happy to give Thursday to the returning Prez in 2012. It will be even better to be watching the Packers play them. How could ratings get higher than showing the Giants tee off against last year’s “supposed” juggernaut in the Packers? Easily the second biggest game (to the Super Bowl) of the postseason last year.

Of course, it won’t be as sweet as election night when Obama crushes Romney. GO BLUE!

Hey, allright. Football on a Wednesday, one less day in the offseason. And then Obummer can have his last little hoorah speech prior to being voted out. And then Obummer can be like Plax and spend some time in jail. Considering Obummer had a membership at a purported gay gym in Chicago, he might like the clink.

so, let me get this straight – moving a game that most of the country can’t get because of a speech most of the country don’t care about.

whatever
+++++++++++++++++++++
Tony Reali just MUTED you for that comment.
It’s on NBC. I think ALL of the country can get that network.

whatever

I do not why people are complaing about a football game being moved a day earlier it just means one less day without football so it really is a good thing if you think about it

You are right, but I do get it… it’s because they all vote republican and they dont like Obama or anything he stands for and would complain as long as his name is mentioned in a post, regardless of the content.

If the artice only said “Obama plans to watch football in 2012″ there’d be the same number of comments.

For those talking about not seeing the game because it’s a Thursday… the opening Thursday game is on NBC, not NFL Network. The opener is part of the Sunday night TV package, not the Thursday night package… and starting this season, the late game on Thanksgiving moves from NFLN to NBC as well – making all three Turkey Day games on regular network television.

As for moving to Friday instead of Wednesday – can’t happen. The NFL never plays on Fridays (high school football) or Saturdays (college football) until those school football regular seasons are over, unless there is an emergency like the Metrodome roof collapse in 2010.

I know the NFL doesn’t like playing on Fridays, but Wednesday? C’mon, man! Friday would have been a great day for the working people, but it looks like Goodell caved for Obama. Anyway, I wanna see the Pack take on the G-Men. Green Bay hosted the game last year . . . now it’s their turn to be the sacrificial lamb as opening night roadie.

I don’t think it matters who they play, they are going to lose anyway! One big OVERRATED team.

I hate the Giants, but calling the Super Bowl champions overrated is pretty juvenile.

Thanks NFL for being respectful and making the right call….. Besides, at that point Mr. Barry O will be in a cake walk back to the White House through 2016…. I say you start Giants vs Eagles…. The champs in a divisional game with Vick…. Huge ratings!

The President should’ve known Sep 6 was gonna be the kickoff night and thus scheduled his speech for Wednesday or Friday.

PFT.. do a little research before you post statements like this..

The NFL usually avoids scheduling a division game for the first game of the season.

Who did the Giants play and beat following there 2007 Superbowl win??

The DEADSKINS.. and just to be clear to PFT staff I mean the Redskins and they are in the same division as the Giants..

Just happens to be in the last crucial months of a presidential campaign that is in dire straits, so let’s make sure the world is listening to me say the say old crap I have been fertilizing the country with for 4 years.

Giants fan here who was originally against playing New Orleans in the opener. I thought our best chance at finally beating them would be later in the season when its cold. However, now that Saints fans have enlightened me to their recent opening night records, I change my tune. Give me New Orleans first!

I’m glad I can watch football and the President. I hope all the people on here who made negative comment about him realize that he’s gonna be around till 2017 so you better get used to it.

Actually it’s a leap year so the offseason is the same length as always. I know looking at tomorrow’s date on the calendar is difficult research, but thank God you had the time to fit in a pointless toupee joke.

pretty sure last time the giants won the super bowl they opened the season against the redskins so there goes saying the nfl stays away from divisional matchups

jacobs ran landry over in that game

As a Saints fan, please give someone else a chance.

If placed,that would make ’07, ’10, ’11, ’12. Enough is enough and we are 1-3 in those games. No thanks

Nothing to do with being conservative or liberal. He is the president and any president Bush Clinton Regan Obama whoever shouldn’t have to compete with opening night in the NFL if it can be avoided
