Hey SmootSmack, any chance the Skins get a Monday Nighter this year?

I wouldn't mind another Monday night game vs. Dallas. There usually pretty good.

I could tell you...but then I'd have to kill you.

We're working on it. I've got a pretty good idea of what's going to happen but it's in the NFL's hands now

Except for the last one. The last two have been in Dallas, so it's our turn if it's to happen this year. Somehow, I think ESPN could care less if a 5-11 Redskin team makes it to Monday Night.

Still, the Dallas-Washington Rivalry has heated up recently, so that might be enough.

So how does that work, exactly? Does ESPN hand over scheduling ideas, and the NFL says yea or nay?

DC is a good market for us and there is a lot of tradition there so we definitely care but it's not our call ultimately

For the NFL yes pretty much. There are several pionts in the contract we must fulfill to try to get a variety of regions on MNF. It's a bit tougher now to get our top choices because they have their own network now, and last year they were very intent on making sure NBC got strong games.
