What a joke, the Dallas Cowboys, Philadelphia Eagles and the Kansas City Chiefs have three MNF games, the Giants get none. NY plays in the largest sports market in the country, quite possibly the world, and they can not get a primetime game on ABC. Well they might get a ESPN primetime game, but I can't get ESPN in HD. So I have to hope that the FOX promise that they will be going to 720p this fall will be in time for football season because that will be the only way to see the Gmen in HD. To say that I am disappointed would be an understatement. I think it is time to move the games to 8pm EST so people on the east coast can watch the games at a reasonable time. Stepping off the soapbox now.

KIA303-
I couldn't agree with you more. FOX will definately have the 720p games this fall & they will definately be on TWC. Receiveing WXXA-DT OTA locally will *hopefully* be ready by opening week.

The MNF schedule may be a blessing in disguise for the Giants. They have historically not done well on Monday night, although I would have like to have watched them in HD.
