He is right though. Kill off thursdays and mondays and saturdays of course too. (NFL) football should be played on sunday afternoons only with the exception of SNF for the best match.
I mean the obvious solution to TNF is just to give every team 1 more bye and then make sure anyone who plays on Thursday had a bye week before. NFL gets an extra week of regular season games, so more TV revenue, and players get a little more rest so good for their bodies overall. Seems like a very obvious win/win.
