The press release comes directly from NFL world headquarters in New York to you. I'm just wondering how fans of the other team feel. I mean Barry Switzer gets a whole show to himself and what does Baltimore get? Not even a mention of Hairspray or Diner or..and this gets tricky...Johnny Unitas (Colts) or Jim Brown (Browns who became Ravens).
Here's what a NFL Network press release actually looks like (well almost):
ALL COWBOYS, ALL DAY LEADING TO
HISTORIC FINAL GAME AT TEXAS STADIUM:
RAVENS-COWBOYS AT 8:00 PM ET 7 pm DALLAS time.
ONLY ON NFL NETWORK
SATURDAY COWBOYS COVERAGE KICKS OFF AT 6:00 AM ET
(Remember all times listed as East Coast friendly. Just subtract one hour and you're good to go)
17 HOURS OF COWBOYS PROGRAMMING INCLUDES:
· 3-HOUR TOTAL ACCESS ON LOCATION PREGAME SHOW LIVE FROM TEXAS STADIUM
· COMPLETE RE-AIR OF 1995 NFC CHAMPIONSHIP GAME - ONE OF THE GREATEST GAMES IN TEXAS STADIUM HISTORY
· PROFILES OF ALL DALLAS' SUPER BOWL WINNERS IN EMMY-AWARD WINNING AMERICA'S GAME: THE SUPER BOWL CHAMPIONS
The Dallas Cowboys host their final regular season home game at Texas Stadium against the Baltimore Ravens Saturday, Dec. 20 at 8:00 PM ET on NFL Network.
In preparation for this historic contest, NFL Network will treat fans to a full Saturday of Cowboys programming kicking off at 6:00 AM ET with five episodes of NFL Network's exclusive Emmy Award-winning America's Game: The Super Bowl Champions chronicling all five Cowboys' Super Bowl champions.
At 1:00 PM ET, one of the most memorable contests in Texas Stadium history will be featured on NFL Classic Games. The 1995 NFC Championship Game between the Dallas Cowboys and Green Bay Packers will be re-aired in its entirety with the original FOX graphics and announcers (John Madden and Pat Summerall) - a classic game you can see only on NFL Network. Each team held the lead three times in the contest, but Emmitt Smith's 150 rushing yards and three touchdowns led the Cowboys to a 38-27 victory.
At 4:00 PM ET, NFL Network presents highlights of Super Bowl XXX, which the Cowboys won against the Steelers two weeks after the storied 1995 NFC Championship Game.
Barry Switzer, the Cowboys coach for that third title in four years, is profiled at 4:30 PM ET on NFL Films Presents: Barry Switzer, which offers a behind-the-scenes look at Switzer from his days as a young man through his head coaching jobs at the University of Oklahoma and the Dallas Cowboys.
Then, live from Texas Stadium at 5:00 PM ET, Total Access on Location presented by Sears sets the scene with three hours of pregame coverage. Among the features on the pregame show are a live on-set visit with Cowboys owner Jerry Jones, a retrospective on the best moments in Texas Stadium history, and special interviews with Cowboys legends.
