The Big Cat Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 (edited) Ugh, late game this Sunday. Not a fan, myself. Where does everyone else come down? To be clear: we're talking about the after noon shift: 4 pm for the East Coasters, like this week's game.

Matt in KC Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 I like prime-time, but not the Sunday 4:00 slot, it just kills my whole day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maddenboy Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 (edited) Love it. But i'm on the West Syeeeed. Better chance it will be televised locally here in L.A. Only competing with about 3 other games, instead of 9 or 10. Even when I lived in Buffalo, I still liked the late games. Nice change of pace. Do something early, then hunker down and watch the Bills, then Sunday Nite football. Wouldnt want it every week, but a couple times per season is nice.

Mark Vader Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 I'm on the west coast so it doesn't matter much to me. I love football, so give it to me all day Sunday, and that's after watching a whole day of college football the day before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Wiz Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Hate 'em. Hate 'em more when both teams are on the east coast. Hate 'em even more when it's a late game on FOX, might as well throw two fans from both team in the both with the worthless commentating going on.

dave mcbride Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 If you DVR the 4 pm game and start at 5:20, it's perfect - you get the entire day before retiring to a Bills game at cocktail hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
run dat back Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Definitely prefer east coast games to start at 1pm. Reluctant to see Bills on Sunday or Monday night slots due to the very high probability of embarrassing themselves nationally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

devldog131 Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Love 'em. Far more drinking time leading up to the game. in the recent past, it was necessary to numb the pain inflicted by watching the crap product take the field each week.

Badasss Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 I like when the Bills get the 4pm slot. It decreases the likelihood that I'll get stuck watching the Cowboys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nucci Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 I thought the 4:00pm home games were a nice change once in a while. Liked the lights on at half time and half the game at night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFan-4-Ever Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 put me down for IDC I hate waiting for a one o'clock game. At least at 4 there's a game I'm interested in watching.

Dorkington Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Don't care either way. I don't like the night games, personally, as they go past my bed time (or the time I should be in bed, but usually am not, because I suck at being an adult).

Webster Guy Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 I like the occasional 4:00 Bills game because I get a chance to watch the 1 o'clock RedZone/Ticket games and see the majority of the other NFL teams. I wouldn't like it every week, but there are many teams I don't get to see that usually play at 1:00 also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bills_fan_in_raleigh Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 I hate the 830 games since hard to stay up to watch. 4pm game messes up Sunday night church but can work around that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nucci Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 didn't they invent Saturday Evening mass for that? That's funny. In the '70s my father left the house at 930a for games. We had to have attended Mass before then. Saturday evening Mass was a big help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowery4 Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 I hate em, I live in Thailand and we are 11 hours ahead right now, so this weeks game is at 3:30 am? Yeah go (yawn) team. I guess I will try to sleep early and get up for it. It is nonsense that they do this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 I absolutely cannot stand 4:00 pm games (as I found out the Jets/Bills game will be). My whole football "internal clock" gets thrown way off when we have these 4 pm start times. I am not sure what to do at 1 pm. When the 4 pm game rolls around, is it still day? Sort of... it starts to get dark, which makes me think that the game is on Fox with its inferior darker hues. I start to feel tired. I am not sure if I need to eat dinner. My whole body becomes very confused. Curious if anyone else also hates the 4 pm start (I guess technically a 4:25 pm start, which is even worse).

YoloinOhio Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 Totally, and I was just thinking about that. I like the 1:00 - go to church, have lunch, and then gametime! After the game, no more gameday nerves, I can get stuff done, go to dinner, and get ready for the next day. The 4:25 start means it could go until 8. But I'll still watch the 1:00 games and be nervous the whole time waiting for our game. The only good thing is that there are only 3 other games at that time so Bills should get lots of time on RedZone, as I don't have the Ticket.

The only difference is that I won't watch any of the 1 pm games, as I would get grief from my wife for watching 7 straight hours of football. Plus, when I recall doing this in the past, I would feel so brain dead by the end of the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have your gal get in your truck (I assume you have a truck), chains linked together, connect to tow bar or three point hitch top link and ease her out in low. If that doesn't work, go in and watch the 1pm games until the it dries out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDH Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 Considering I moved to London in January and the 4:25 game starts at 9:25 my time - yeah, I hate 'em. The Thursday night game vs. Cleveland will be even worse. The 8:25pm start will start at 1:25am and not end until nearly 5am. I, of course, plan on staying up and watching it live and going through my Friday like a zombie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The hill was slick and hyrdo seeded and covered in straw with the rain it was a bad mix. I got half way up and lost tractor and slipped carefully back down. I have the 16' goose neck on tractor to clear the dip across the construction zone. I'll have to unload a lot of the bales and pull tractor and trailer out its going to be a B word.
