Taking a zero. I picked up Elam in place of Nugent. Find out he might not be kicking. And you are all worried.

Okay, just kidding, but I did pick up Elam. This game will be played this week. When else could they play it? Answer that question and it is obvious that they will get it done on Monday or Tuesday at a neutral site or even in Baltimore(although very unlikely).

THIS IS A VERY STICKY SITUATION. I THINK WE NEED A RULING OR AT LEAST A POTENTIAL RULING SOONER THAN LATER.

SOME OWNERS (NOT ME) CANT ACCESS THEIR COMPUTERS BEFORE GAME TIME. SO IF THEY NEED TO PUT IN A REPLACEMNT FOR RAVENS/TEXANS PLAYERS RESPECTIVELY THEY NEED TO PUT THEM BEFORE THE FACT RATHER THAN AFTER THE FACT.

IT IS VERY STICKY BUT I KNOW GREG AND TOM WILL COME UP WITH THE BEST DECISION IN THE INTEREST OF THE NFFC/NBC RESPECTIVELY.

Let's see what the NFL decides today. I honestly have no idea why the game wasn't moved to a neutral site on Friday. This was a staggeringly bad decision by the NFL in my opinion to just hope that Houston would be OK in 24 hours. The game should have been relocated on Friday when the decision was made to push the game to Monday night.BINGO Tom!

Both New Orleans AND Atlanta are AWAY this weekend, and would have been good sites to host the game.

Oh wait, the NFL might lose some money, because of course, the game wasn't ready to be played on Sunday, there were/are fatalities today in the Houston area, and I imagine mass destruction. Add in that 90%+ of the area has no electricity...

I'm sure everyone in the Houston area will want to go to a game 2 days later! :rolleyes:

The show must go on!

The NFL can eat the loss of revenue for one game.

I have little doubt it will be played this weekend/Mon.

Actually I think they may take Cincy and Houston who have the same bye week in week 8, and have Cincy play Houston that week which would then allow Baltimore to play at Houston in week 10 when Cincy was supposed to play there. Just my .02.

Just my .02. That makes a lot of sense, and there's a good chance the NFL will do that.

They're certainly not worried about fantasy football, which only accounts for the second largest amount of their popularity, after gambling. This is gonna turn into a fantasy nightmare. Good luck, Tom and Greg.

Hang in there Jive, hope you come through safely.

But I have plane tickets to fly to Houston in week 10 to see the Cincy/Texan game. Not to mention my rent a car and hotel and game day tickets.
