why do we get Oakland vs Denver. WHO CARES!!!!! Why not show the NE and Jets game, it should be a huge game.
It's the standard "why do we get a late game instead of the good game?" question...notice the little splotches of green on the CBS map where nobody really should have an interest in the OAK/DEN game...Philly, Dallas, St. Louis, etc...it's b/c if they get the chance they're going to give you a 4 pm game instead of an early game so nothing is on to compete with your local game...
Not really sure the reasoning...probably some type of agreement they will have with the local affiliates...
