The NFL has arranged with broadcast television partners CBS and NBC for an unprecedented three-way national simulcast of the NFL Network telecast of Saturday night’s New England Patriots at New York Giants game when the Patriots will try to become the first NFL team to go 16-0 in a regular season, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell announced today.

“We have taken this extraordinary step because it is in the best interest of our fans,” Commissioner Goodell said. “What we have seen for the past year is a very strong consumer demand for NFL Network. We appreciate CBS and NBC delivering the NFL Network telecast on Saturday night to the broad audience that deserves to see this potentially historic game. Our commitment to the NFL Network is stronger than ever.”

CBS and NBC will carry the NFL Network feed of the game with Bryant Gumbel and Cris Collinsworth in the broadcast booth. The game also will be televised by WCVB-ABC (Channel 5) in Boston, WMUR-ABC in Manchester, New Hampshire (Channel 9) and WWOR (Channel 9) in New York. The telecast begins at 8 p.m. ET with kickoff set at 8:15 p.m. ET.

Great Move by the NFL! I am hoping now more than ever that the Patriots go 16-0. Nobody has seen this since The Dolphins did this in 1972. I'll be watching CBS And NBC Saturday Night. I hope you will be too.

Where My Dogs At?

Michael Vick, the Quarterback of the Atlanta Falcons and one of the most recognizable faces of the National Football League, has been charged with being a ringleader of an illiegal dogfighting ring. According to the 18-page indictment, the dogfighting ring executed underperforming dogs by drowning, hanging and other brutal means. It alleges that the fights offered purses as high as $26,000.

The grisly details outlined in the indictment have fueled protests and public outrage against Vick. NFL commissioner Roger Goodell has banned Vick from the Falcons' training camp while the league investigates.

Michael Vick is in deep dog doodoo (no pun intnended) as one of his former associates, Tony Taylor, has now agreed to testify for the government in their case against Michael Vick. Wittnesses have put Michael at the scene of the dog executions and there may soon be more charges coming up against Michael Vick.

No Ammount of Scrambling can get Michael Vick away from the very real possibility that he may spend some time in prison. Vick had better hope that his attorney Billy Martin is as good as his track record says he is, Otherwise, Vick can kiss his NFL Career Goodbye.
