I don't buy that. The NFL moved the Giants - Saints game on short notice in the wake of Katrina. Roger Goodell's talk is cheap on doing right by the Skins after Taylor's death. The Skins have 2 games and a teammate's funeral in a 5 day stretch. Why not move the Thursday Bears game to Sunday, and replace the Thursday game with one that doesn't have playoff ramifications? Better still, move the NFL Network broadcast to Saturday night, which would probably draw more viewers than a Thursday game anyway. The NFL can make it happen IF they want to.
