I've asked this question in years past, and it is fun to see people evolve over the years: What is your favorite time/day for a regular season Jets game to be scheduled? In other words, if you could chose one time slot every week, which would you choose?
Different answers for different venues. Home games I love 1:00, get there early and be home by 5:30 latest. Away games 4:00 on Sunday. _
I love Sunday at 1. I go to church every week, with my jersey on, and it allows me to get timely prayers in before kickoff
A little selfish here, but 1pm (US time) means the match is done by about 9-30pm, better than 12-30am (for a 4pm US time ko)...or some time in the middle of the night for any of the others.
I'm interested to see how the 9:30 am game against the Dolphins goes. Part of the reason I don't like 1:00 Sunday is because it keeps me from following the rest of the games that happen concurrently. The early morning game will give us a football Sunday and then the ability to still see everyone else play.
I enjoy my traditional 1:00 p.m. game. I hate waking up and finding shit to do as the time goes by ever so slowly before my Jets hit the damn field. Hop in the car, get Pub-subs around 11, watch some NFL Today and then kickoff.
As the kids get older i find less and less time for afternoon football. i more enjoy the primtime games now. I know i will be the minority on this one
Sunday @ 4 is ideal. I can get all yard work, kids stuff or anything else I need to get done early, or watch the redzone channel for the 1pm games. Excitement builds! A loss at 1 and I'm pissed off enough to check out of football until the next week. Being a Jet fan, that happens more often than not. Prime time games are great on the West Coast, but suck on work nights.
Being a STH, Sunday home games at 1PM are ideal for me. I hop on the 7 train at 10:30, get on the 351 express at the Port Authority at 11, get to the stadium by 11:20 (if there is no traffic), pound beers in the parking lot for an hour or so then head into the game around 12:30. This gives me a half an hour to take the horrible escalators up to the 300 section and to grab a beer before kickoff. Away games I like 4pm on Sunday's because I can run errands until 3pm then just head out to the local bar for beers and wings and still stumble in my door before The Walking Dead starts at 9.
I love the 1pm EST games on Sunday. Get all my yard work done before Noon, have lunch, start on some beers then it's game time!
Depends if I'm attending the game or watching it on TV. If I'm in attendance I prefer 1:00 kick off for travel reasons if I'm watching at home I love Sunday/Monday night games allowing me to watch the red zone channel all day. Strongly dislike Thursday night.
FUNNY I do the same thing, Plus with the 1PM game I start drinking at 11:30Am and after the Game I watch the late game and sober up for Monday.
There's nothing better than a night game. Drinking bourbon at 10am on a Sunday morning seems wrong somehow.
