By now the way I feel about having to be forced to watch ALL the NFC East games on prime time television should be pretty clear. I don’t like it. It’s obnoxious, and the other 9/10 of the country tuning in are just watching because it’s football.
But there is one good thing about the NFL’s insistence on running an NFC East prime time game every week from now until the heat death of the universe. Sometimes one of those non-“Dallas” teams goes and wins a Super Bowl. Which means that “Dallas,” because it’s always “Dallas,” has to travel to the defending Super Bowl Champions, this year the Philadelphia Eagles, and watch them raise a banner while showcasing to the world one of the worst “Dallas” teams in the Jerry Jones era.
Here’s what you need to know if you want to join in the abject “Dallas” humiliation like any decent Texans fan.
Who: “Dallas” Cowboys at Philadelphia Eagles
What: Thursday Night Kickoff Special
Where: Lincoln Financial Field, Philadelphia, PA
When: Thursday, September 4, 7:20 p.m. CDT
Why: Because it’s the start of the NFL season, we’ve been starving for this.
Enjoy the game, y’all.
Go, Texans!
