Now this is not as bad as it seems.
On the news they were acting like this is all greed. Though they are not wrong either.

What it really is, the NFL is sticking with the two games as they did last year.
But with Christmas falling on a Thursday, they want to keep the Amazon TNF game as well.

why not? What is there to do on Christmas Day? Nothing. Gee. We could go to the movies. Get Chinese food ... or ... wow, watch a ton of football, order that Chinese food delivered, and stream a movie.

Don't watch if the game sucks. But ... you are gonna watch and that is all that matters.

I'm always off on Christmas eve and on Christmas day, but I have a lot going on. So I might get a game in. Either way, I don't mind them playing games on Christmas.

Well they did play in that Christmas day playoff game in 1971 vs Miami. Grasping at straws here for tradition. Probably people will to pay for Netflix to watch Mahomes when they have had their fill of relatives more likely motive.

KC and the Hunt family. They are still butt hurt Dallas ran them off to KC, and getting that T-Day game every year.
They been whining about taking it away from Dallas for over 30 years now. If not longer.

Well, now they are trying to get a Christmas Day game every year. Try to get that radiation started.
I can't blame them though. Need to try as they have nothing to lose to try. Good for the fans to have traditions.

I mean it can work. Play a football game, then they already have a Santa Claus on the side lines, just give Andy Ried a beard and a costume. Saves them from hiring an outside Santa.

Plus the NFL is used to giving KC gifts to advance to the SB anyway.

Exactly how is that adding a 3rd game?

There will be 2 Christmas afternoon games same as last year. There will be a Thursday night game same as last year.

all on pay channels I bet.
Last year games were on pay channels.

For nearly 50 years I scheduled the Cowboys games as a priority watch. That stopped several years ago. I have better things to do with my time than watch a dysfunctional organization that doesn’t put winning at the top of their priority list. Jerry Jones destroyed the Dallas Cowboys! For the few games or parts of games I still watch, I’m pulling for the most embarrassing losses as possible. That’s the only enjoyment I get out of watching. My biggest regret as a Cowboys fan is raising 4 children to be fans. I still enjoy coming on this site and seeing how many gullible fans still hold out hope. News flash….there is NO light at the end of this tunnel…NONE!
