Tonight's TNF game is emblematic of TNF (alien.top)

Tonights game pits the 1-7 Panthers against the 2-7 Bears. I for one am incredibly excited because I believe TNF is about watching bad football.

My favorite TNF game of all time was the WK 14 2013 game pitting an awful Texans squad against my own awful Jaguars. Jaguars would go on to win an incredibly ugly and penalty filled (22 of them) 27-20 with Matt Schaub, Case Keenum, Chad Henne, and MJD putting on a show for a national audience that probably went to bad that night with the same feeling as you would have after going minor league hockey game.

What are some other wonderfully awful TNF Matchups that we can remember?

Minor league hockey is awesome. Arena football is awesome. As a kid my parents couldn’t afford Bears tickets or Blackhawks tickets. So we drove to the Allstate Arena and saw countless Chicago Rush and Chicago Wolves games because tickets were dirt cheap. Some of my favorite memories as a kid. Minor league sports matter and I will not tolerate this slander.

Minor league Hockey is by far the best in-person sports game to go to. Can get tickets against the glass for less than $30 and there is almost always free handouts and moderately priced food. I also don't follow professional hockey enough to understand how much worse they are, so I don't care.

we have the sabres farm team and it’s fun to go and watch and an inexpensive outing, but the last couple years they’ve actually been decent and prices aren’t so cheap anymore, lol. they also have a vip package thing where if you have a big enough group (think it’s 15+) you can do it and it’s like $40/person with open bar and buffet lunch. went with my parents and other people last year during march madness and boy did we get our money’s worth on the open bar lmao

we also have a minor league baseball team and decent seats can be had for like $20/person and that’s an awesome outing too

I've been to exactly one minor league hockey game. There was a huge brawl in the second period that ended in 13 players being ejected, and everyone got free Culver's because the home team scored six goals (don't worry about the fact that they lost 11-6).

The problem is that I can never go back, because there's just no topping that.

I worry about minor league baseball sometimes. It's so integral to the survival of the sport but I have no idea how these teams survive. But maybe that's because I grew up in a town with a minor league team that was only an hour away from a major league team so we commuted to the city for major league games all the time.
