I cant believe NBC chose a 4pm pacific start time for the opening NFL game of the season. How F'N lame is that? I need a few beers before i can stomache 3 hours of Madden, 3pm pacific is too early to start drinking!

I hear you. Can always forgo the beers and get where you need to be quicker with Tequila, maybe chase with the brews.

4pm Pacific is 7PM Eastern in:
New York, Boston , Detroit, Toronto, Montreal, Miami, Atlanta, Philly. Washington, etc. etc.
I like the 7pm start time. Works well for us in the Eastern time zone.

I've always thought they should start events at what's 'normal' for the folks attending them in the stadiums. In this case, a 7:00 p.m. ET start seems appropriate for both the Giants and Redskins fans. Where the West Coaster really get screwed will be, for example, if the Angels make the World Series this year and have games in Anaheim then start at a convenient (8:00 p.m.) time for fans on the East Coast. That's a ripoff to Californians, many of whom will be negotiating traffic home from their jobs at first pitch.
Alas, television rules and what's best for their East Coast viewers is the way things will be.

No need to bash a whole state for a few peoples' lifestyles. I'm sure there's plenty of homos in your state as well.
Let's just all think about the game. Now go out there and get that money. GL e1

I'd like to see what Pat Summerall looks like sober, although I'm not sure such a picture exists.
