Glad they moved the game?

I, for one, am very glad they moved the game. I could care less if the Eagles win this game if Tampa Bay beats the Raiders. That's why, if Tampa Bay wins, I'm not worried about the negative impact of the Eagles knowing they've been eliminated.

However, if Oakland saves our asses, I think it'll get the players pumped, and it'll get the Vet rocking. The fans will be contributing twice as much as normal. We all know the Cowboys have trouble with penalties on their offensive line. With a road game against a division foe and (hopefully) a wildcard spot on the line, they're bound to commit even more penalties than normal.

Anyway, let's go Eagles, Raiders, Giants, and Texans!

As a season ticket holder, I prefer going to a 1 pm game over 4 pm. Just my personal preference.

everybody should still care if eagles win

. I could care less if the Eagles win this game if Tampa Bay beats the Raiders.??
everybody should still care if eagles win regardless
we need to win to keep the cowgirls out of the playoffs, the way i see it if we cant go to the playoffs, neither do they it would still be cool to end their playoff hopes

I'm very upset

about the game being changed to 4 pm because I live near Washington. Fox is going to show the Redskins @ 49ers over this game (Cowboys @ Eagles) which I consider a playoff game. If they showed it at 1 I know they’d show this game over the Giants @ Vikings. And CBS shows the Jaguars @ Ravens instead of Dolphins @ Jets at 4

me too...

I work down in Silver Spring right outside DC and live outside of Baltimore so I have to go out to watch the game…. To be honest with you guys, after walking out of Fed Ex after that dismal loss, which felt like a season ending blow, I have no desire to leave my house to ever watch a game again. Why is this team so goddamn streaky all the F-ing time? Would it be too much to ask for some descent Drafting Scouts and a game where if your down by 4 in the goddamn 4th quarter with 2 min left I am not leaving early because I have faith? Ugh, sorry about that. I am just so frustrated.

I have a tee-time at 3pm AZ time

and I ain’t changing it. It would have been on at 11 here, and now it’s 2, I’ll record the game and fast forward through all the Nutri-system commercials.

i’m glad they’re playing the cowgirls cause at least if they’re out of the playoffs, we can still root for them to be spoilers. hate ’dem cowgirls more than anything. even the giants!

Here is a different look at the motivation prior to the game

I’m a Cowboy fan. I am not happy them moving the game. The reality is Philly will be eliminated prior to 3:00pm. I wish they weren’t. I can just see Romo sitting in the locker room with his backwards hat and his feet up watching the TB game. Then, the whole relaxes and sets the NFL record for penelaties in a game.
