Eagles To Play Thanksgiving (Will You See It?)

Well, look at this! The Eagles will play on Thanksgiving night this year at home against the Arizona Cardinals. In addition to their division games and the four games against the rotating AFC opponent (this year, the North, where they’ll play the Steelers, Ravens, Bengals and Browns), the Eagles will also play the 49ers, Falcons, Seahawks, Rams and Bears.

But the Thanksgiving game might be the most interesting, and just because it’s on, well, Thanksgiving. The NFL and Comcast are still having a tug of war over what “tier” the NFL Network should be on, part of the most boring controversy in world history. (I just love it when multi-million dollar corporations fight.) Now, Comcast’s home market of Philadelphia has a high-profile game that will be airing on NFL Network! What better way to shame them (or something) into doing their bidding. That crafty NFL!
