I am excited about the sunday start time, I have to work this saturday afternoon till late that night. It's no fun working during a Pats game (have a great boss who's given me every Pats game off this year). It's especially no fun having to work during a Pats playoff game...
I agree, I don't like any time for the Pats other than 1pm on Sunday. With my new work sked it works out pretty awesome too. I work Wed-Thurs 245pm-745pm, Fri 12pm-8pm, and Sat 11am-4pm so I can watch all the football and late games and not have to worry about losing sleep or any of that crap.
