    Agree Wholeheartedly! I really like the Thanksgiving day game for our team to showcase themselves. I have a few Cowboy fans in the family and hope the JETS crush them BIG!!

    No, primetime games make me sleepy at work the next day - unless it were a saturday night I'm against it.

    Gus, which site do you use? As another UK based fan it would be good to see more Jets games as I am lucky to get a couple a year via Sky.

    Yahoo! do an international season ticket package for the year. I think it's over ?100 though.

    It's a joke that a playoff team can't get a single night game, you just know that the week 17 game is going to get bump for some other game. A playoff team should have at least 1 perm night game.

    Only one Prime Time game in '07?

    And that one is subject to change! Maybe I'm being too sensitive, but I thought we'd get more recognition for the season we had in '06. We're on at 1 on Sunday alot next season.

    Early Sunday games are great. Gives me time to drink/eat and enjoy the games without having to worry about staying up later then I want too on Sun/Mon. MNF kinda annoys me anyway these days, well the announcers anyway...the only good thing about it is if you happen to play in an amazing game it's more memorable in a national sense.

    4:15 pm sunday every sunday is my preference!

    I can watch Sunday ticket 1pm, when there are a ton of games, and then kick back and watch the Jets (well kick back, yea right, more like throw stuff and jump up and down)

    I prefer the Sunday 1pm games too. Yet, I feel oddly dissed when we don't get our Prime Time props.

    who knows... we might get bumped to primetime later in the season... i could definetly see Jets @ Pats (Dec. 16) getting moved to primetime assuming both teams are playing well

    We don't need primetime games... lets just go out and win. I can see you being mad if you dont live in the area... but if you do, then its probably better to have earlier games on sunday

    I prefer 1pm games when we are home because I go to every game and I get home in time to watch 1/2 of the 4pm game and eat dinner with the family. The 4pm home games take up the whole day and I am fried by the time I get home so no Sunday night football. 4pm away games allow me to enjoy the 1 pm games regardless of what the Jets due at 4pm.

    Like ScotsJet said I use Yahoo international pass , it will be on the www.nfl.com website when pre-season starts. You will need a good connection speed of over 500kb though , otherwise the pic is crap , hey the seasons before I've been listening to it on the radio which I find very hard to concentrate on come sunday evening , especially if I've been to the Emmerson boozer :grin:
    There are other websites that air games on request , but I will not name them as they are money grabbing children who if you moan ban you. Bassers.




    I think mine was $129 , but with the ? against the $ at over $2 to ?1 , its worth it.
