00:00Joe Ferreira made some predictions for us.

00:02He thought there would be two Monday night football games,

00:07two Sunday night football games,

00:09a game in Madrid against the Dolphins,

00:13and then not playing Thanksgiving in Dallas,

00:17rather playing Kansas City on Christmas at Arrowhead.

00:22Would you?

00:23I'd much rather Christmas against Kansas City than going to Dallas.

00:26Why?

00:28I won't go to Dallas.

00:29But we're going to Dallas regardless.

00:31Okay.

00:32But I won't go to Dallas for Thanksgiving.

00:34I've spent a number of Thanksgivings at Jerry World.

00:37For me, I would much prefer Thanksgiving than Christmas.

00:40If Christmas was a home game, I'd be into it.

00:42I just don't want to be away for Christmas.

00:45No, you're going to be away.

00:45It's a job you chose.

00:46I get it.

00:47Got a little Chris Russell in you.

00:49I think Christmas is one thing.

00:51I'm not blaming the NFL for ruining my life or anything.

00:55Well, he always says the games come up at times.

00:58He don't want it to come.

00:59But when you choose his profession, you got to do it.

01:01Can we see if Russell's available to discuss a possible Christmas game?

01:04Because I'm sure he'll feel great about that.

01:08We're going to open the phone lines up here in just a moment.

01:10But 800-636-1067.

01:13800-636-1067.

01:17Commanders are going to have a boatload of primetime and 430 games.

01:22I'm curious.

01:23Just like there is a portion of the fan base that's not thrilled about the possibility of

01:29the new RFK Stadium because of tailgating.

01:31Like, how does the tailgating traditional crowd feel about all the night games and getting

01:38out of that Sunday 1 o'clock?

01:40I imagine they're into it because it's longer time to tailgate.

01:43Yeah.

01:44Yeah.

01:45Like, it's a hell of a lot easier to tailgate for an 8 o'clock at night game.

01:50The tailgating thing just, I don't know why people think it's not going to be any tailgating.

01:54I don't get that at all.

01:56Yeah, that's a separate.

01:59Yeah.

02:02I think, where do you land, B, on two Sunday nights, two Monday nights?

02:10I think there's a...

02:12I'll take them both.

02:13I also think it's going to happen.
