Mark Vader Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 I posted this on TSW already, but since it does involve the country it seems appropriate to be here too. https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/petition/declare-monday-following-super-bowl-national-holiday/qPHHlyZV WARNING: I first got this story from Fox News, and I know many here say that Fox News lies. So you may not want to click on the link, because the story may not be real. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you may not want to click on the link, because the story may not be real. Not many things funnier than people who get hysterical over Fox News while believing anything they are told from other news outlets. As for the petition, dumb idea IMO. Instead, how about petitioning the TV a--holes to start the game at 3:00? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dayman Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 (edited) Agreed on dumbasses who schedule this stuff. Wait all through the holiday season and then the college football championship is on a Monday during a work week. Superbowl...nothing else going on and they stick on a Sunday night. Sick of this crap. That said, I would gladly swap and celebrate one of the Birthday's or even Labor day on the day following the super bowl.

dayman Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 MLK's? He's given a lot to this country...he can give a little more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3rdnlng Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 He's given a lot to this country...he can give a little more So you suggest eliminating the holiday honoring MLK in order to have the day after the superbowl off? I suppose the only reason you are proposing this is that MLK was a Republican. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3rdnlng Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 (edited) Let us celebrate his life the day after the superbowl I didn't think you'd be in a mood to celebrate the day after the superbowl. Neither would a lot of people i would gather. So I guess what you are doing is suggesting that we celebrate MLK's birthday in a half-assed way. Shameful.

IDBillzFan Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 I wouldn't be surprised to find out the group trying to get this passed is not actually fantasy football people but leaders at SEIU. Nothing motivates union people like a reason to take another day off with pay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maury Ballstein Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Moving the game to Saturday just makes a ton of sense IMO. No one's gonna worth a shhhhhh coming to work on Monday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alaska Darin Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 The NFL should simply move the game to Saturday (I know it's already stated in the thread). I can only imagine the rationale for why they don't do it (host city profits, etc). Heaven forbid it's not all about the dollar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
