2012 NFL Schedule Released - Big Matchups

The popularity of the NFL is higher than if has ever been. With the NBA season coming to a close, MLB starting to heat up, and the NHL playoffs giving us overtime hockey; the release of the NFL schedule is the top story.

Throw in the mix that the NFL will dominate headlines next week with the draft and truly the sport has become year-round entertainment. Biggest change has to be the advancement of games played on Thursday throughout the season and adding some Tuesday night games towards the end to compliment Saturday and Sunday. Sundays are for football. This is what has made the NFL special since it's inception. Roger Goddell needs to tread carefully with his plans for television expansion throughout the week. Sometimes diminishing what has always worked for something new does not work at all.
