-Dan_Bengals_FL- Posted April 3, 2007 Report Share Posted April 3, 2007 A little birdie notified me a week or so ago that the Bengals would have three primetime games this season. This was before the preseason schedule was announced (which the Bengals have one on), but I don't believe that counts as one. Should be interesting. To clarify that would include Thursday*/Sunday night/Monday night games. *I would assume that they included Thursday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ickeyshuffler Posted April 3, 2007 Report Share Posted April 3, 2007 being a second shift worker i hate primetime games. If we get 3 primetime games not counting 2 friday night preseason games i will have to use 5 of my 16 vacation days. That and a kid being due in july means i will only get to do 2 road games this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So needless to say I burn up quite a few vacation days during the season.... especially for road games. Do you have any idea what games Lenny is looking at for this year?

I wake up and hang out with her every day, I don't know what i'm going to do when she starts school, I will be at work by the time she gets home and won't be home untill she is in bed. As for selling the tickets, I could never sell tickets to a bengals fan over face value. So it wouldn't be worth selling them, just to get back what i paid for them.

Guest fredtoast Posted April 4, 2007 Report Share Posted April 4, 2007 I hate Monday, Thursday, and Saturday games just because they mess with the team. A short week to recover physically and game plan for the next opponent really hurts a team. The record for teams the week after a Monday night road game is terrible. I also hate staying so late before a workday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sm00th_kw Posted April 11, 2007 Report Share Posted April 11, 2007 We'll see if this is correct, just some tidbits I heard...don't know the source personally, so the validity of this I can't be sure: Obviously the season opener vs the Ravens. Week 3 New England, Mon. night. Sunday Night vs the stealers, don't know when or where. Saturday game vs San Fran week 16. end the season @ Miami.
