ABC will now air MNF all season due to Hollywood strike (+ new ESPN Snoop Dogg MNF opening anthem)

But tonight (NO-CAR), next Monday (September 25 - LAR-CIN), and Monday, December 11 (TEN-MIA) the games will be only on ESPN since ABC is airing another game.

 

[See my post below for new ESPN MNF anthem featuring Chris Stapleton, Snoop Dogg, and Cindy Blackman Santana.]

Did they not have access to ESPN?

I don't.  I use an over the air antenna.  I think a lot of people do.  I cut the cord a while ago and have no TV subscriptions.

That’s a win for the common fan IMO.

Some common fans don't even have cable or fiber.

 

IMO yes it is a win.  In fact locally FIOS put ESPN and NFL Network on separate sports tiers to try to get sport fans to pay for both.  I switched sport tiers when Bills were going to be on NFL Network repeatedly and since football is only sport I pay attention anymore to it makes more sense because during offseason they have some good replayed games on it.

Well good, this will save me from adding the Sling orange package to the blue one that we always have... a couple hundred in savings. I couldn't care less as I never miss a game I want to watch but the girl here likes to watch on the TV with no hassles. 

 

As far as I know, MNF was intended for the working man originally.

Agreed. Back where it needs to be.

After seeing many of his "Animal Planet-style narrations, I would watch a broadcast with Snoop doing the commentating. 

His one with the Iguana vs. Snakes is an absolute must-see / Classic.

All games played in stadiums with public funding should have to show all games in whatever municipalities helped foot the bill. If the new Bills stadium takes city, state, and federal dollars then every market should be able to see the game.

 

Just my $0.02.

Even if all games are supposed to available it will do no good how since the NFL has divided the pie into so many pieces some of which you need to pay separately for and for those being sent over airwaves if you are in area with a NFC and AFC team those will be shown first.
