    Last night was the 4th time, the Giants have been on. A few weeks ago, it was the Cowboysv G-men. In LateOct/early Nov,da Bears played the Giants and of coursethey played the Colts early on in the season. All were home games I think. Perhaps, the Dallas game wasn't</p>

    NBC is owned by GE who I don't believe is hurting for $. So, whats up with the limited geography?</p>

    Hey Pats fans; Gotcha. Admit you were fooled by the subtitle.</p>

    This thread was brough to you by the letters D-W-O</p>

    Didn't fool me since I already know most of the Pats games are on CBS. [​IMG]</p>

    Sounds like those all were or should have been significant games featuring two teams from significant markets that have a larger national following.</p>

    Nothing too surprising there.</p>

    I don't know about being biased towards the Giants. Tiki Barber and Chris Collinsworth rip them whenever they get the chance to (which is why I hate having games on Sunday nights). I personally think that NBC's trying to loosen Fox's stranglehold on the NFC East games. Every team in that division is a storied franchise and brings in a lot of viewers. Not to mention, those division matchups tend to be very close, hard-fought games.</p>

    Yeah, you can cut the sexual tension that Tiki has for Eli with a knife. Collinsworth is just an attention whore.</p>
