Brail is two hours earlier than Eastern Time. They do not observe Daylight Saving Time, so early in the season they are only one hour ahead of Eastern Time. Perfect for a late DH game here in the US. Game might involve the Dolphins as Muami has a huge ex-pat population from Brazil. Miami plays Jacksonville next year, as do we. But all AFC teams only have eight home games next year, so it would have to be Miami at an NFC team probably.

Al Michaels out for NFL playoffs on NBC in move he wasn't expecting

Now might be a good time to get Peacock, which has local NBC on its higher tier, IIRC. Or over-the-air works too. -

Yeah, Michaels always gets the lesser of NBC's playoff games since their A-team gets too billing, obviously. In any case, I'm sure he is pissed right now and calling his lawyer. -
Araiza, accuser agree to dismiss civil lawsuits against each other
chongli replied to Draconator's topic in The Stadium Wall
If he does go to the NFL, we get first dibs and he had better do a rookie contract or close to it. And if he does come back to Buffalo, @Araiza Curse needs to change his user name so the curse can be lifted! 😅 -

He still calls them for NBC since he hs emeritus there, and he was expecting to this year. He says it is in his contract. He has called them each year and did NBC's LAC-JAX Wild Card last year and one or two regular season games last year. This move is a stunner to all. Expect a lawsuit soon. -
Al Michael, 79, storied play-by-play announcer for Amazon's TNF and announcer emeritus for NBC, is out for this year's playoffs on NBC, which does four playoff games this year. Michaels was unaware of this when contacted by the NY Post. Last year, Michaels did Chargers at Jaguars with Tony Dungy. https://nypost.com/2023/12/12/sports/al-michaels-out-of-nbcs-nfl-playoff-coverage-in-move-he-didnt-expect/amp/ "Al Michaels out of NBC’s NFL playoff coverage in move he wasn’t expecting Michaels called last year’s incredible Jaguars comeback win over the Chargers, but he and analyst Tony Dungy were widely panned for a perceived lack of enthusiasm. [...] When informed by The Post about it being in limbo, Michaels sounded unaware of the possibility. “It’s in my deal,” Michaels said. “Where are you hearing that from? That’s part of my deal. Are you hearing something that I’m not hearing?” There has long been tension between Michaels and top NBC executives, though they have done their best to hide it from public view, even giving Michaels an emeritus title when he was replaced. There was a failure to truly define what the emeritus role really meant, except for calling the playoff game. NBC decided to move on from Michaels, even though he longed to stay at the top perch on “Sunday Night Football.” NBC had long promised Tirico the lead role, and kept true to its word even after Michaels went out with a tremendous performance for NBC in the Super Bowl in February 2022."
