The NFL sure knows how to milk the year-round interest in their product. In January, the league announced the 2012 opponents for each team. Earlier this month, they announced the always-exciting preseason schedule and next Tuesday, it appears we'll finally get the biggest piece of the puzzle, the full regular season schedule. The league hasn't officially announced Tuesday as the release date, but ESPN has a program titled NFL Schedule Release scheduled for 7-10 p.m. that evening. The description states: "A look a the top NFL games for 2012, plus team-by-team evaluations and interviews with key personnel." Source: MLive.com
3 hours of coverage to re-hash the same tired ESPN created story lines (I mean, "break down" the schedule)? I'm tapping out after 40 minutes. I'm not even really paying attention to it and I can't take it anymore.
