Monday night football is moving to ESPN after this year. It will be announced later today or tomorrow. ABC is tired of losing money on this product. I have not heard what will happen to the Sunday night game.

Or if Dallas/Washington games didn't last 4 hours and end at 2 am on the east coast.

appraently the Sunday Night games are moving to NBC for the 2006 season. NBC must have finally realized that football = ratings. NBC has gone in the tank ever since they lost the NFL to CBS. All the promotion for CBS shows during football games helped get them the #1 network in the country. It wasn't just a coincidence that this happened as soon as they got the NFL.

Along with NBC getting the Sunday night games they will get two Super Bowls in the future.

edit* the years are 2009 and 2012

Didn't they try that for a year and it didn't work out for some reason?

I like NBC Sports better than CBS and ESPN. I hope Marv Albert does the calling for Sunday Night Football.

YES!

I hope that Chris Berman is NOT in the MNF booth. He is very annoying.

Well said Chris! Stuart Scott = :throwup:

This is big news. It's going to be even harder now to gain a higher viewing percentage MNF. It'll be interesting to see what NBC does with the Sunday night games.

The news doesn't affect me too much. They never show my teams on MNF, so I rarely watch it.
