  • What is the TRUE starting time of the NFL games today?!? [INFURIATING!!!]

    I have checked almost every news outlet on the web - to include Google News, Yahoo Answers, CBS.com, FOX.com, even NFL.com itself - and NONE of them will tell me the true starting times of the games today.

For instance, look at this screen capture from nfl.com: Notice anything missing? Like the starting times of today's...

    In the last debate Kerry would cite Republican politicians to make his points, implying they agreed with him and not the President. In this way Kerry tried to paint Bush as being out of step even with his own party and that Kerry is the more mainstream or less radical of the two candidates. For examples: John McCain I think John McCain called the energy bill the "No Lobbyist Left Behind" bill.I mean, you've got to stand up and fight somewhere, folks. and Number two, John McCain and I have a proposal, jointly, for a commission that closes corporate giveaway...
