    If the NFL spread its games throughout the week, there could be a football game every night of the week, instead of having them bunched together on Sunday, so that you can't watch all of them. Why don't they do that?

    football is not like basketball or baseball or even hockey. physically grueling. almost like a 25 man 12 round boxing match every week

        He didnt say each team play multiple times a week, rather spread the games out, 2 a day would do the trick.

          Bunching all the games up transforms football as a whole into an event a person can count on and look forward to every week. Monday Night Football and Sunday Night Football have a place in the psyche of American sports fans (not so much thursday nigh football though). Baseball, basketball, hockey, etc. seem to be watched whenever it's on and all that emotion and excitement isn't built up like football.

              I believe NFL is legally regulated to NOT play games on Friday or Saturday.
              Long standing policy.
