Schedule so far?

[patfan1]

So we know we've got our season opener on the 7th of April and a doubleheader on the 14th as our home opener.

If anyone else sees any info out there related to our schedule, please post here.

I found out that the BC/Florida State game that's set for next Labor Day weekend might be played at Gillette. So apparently no home game that weekend.

Isn't it great that we're somewhere around 40th in regards to most important tennants... :mad:

It's "all about the Benjamins" Monty: a match-up like this, especially considering how well Florida State fans travel and the number of BC alumni(ae) in the area, and you have a potential for $$$$ being spent... you see, there's this thing called "logic," and... ;)

well they could always just move the game to foxboro high school...i hear the tailgate is great there.

Well, there's one or two less games that "Patriots" will be painted in the endzones.

Anyone wanna bet they'll schedule a revs game that day and then move it to a wednesday night in september? Or better yet, MLS will schedule the LA home game that day and then "have to switch" so LA gets another home game with Becks.

Along the same lines, I still don't get why Kraft can't just tell MLS to schedule two home games for august and then tell the NFL to schedule their two preseason games on the other weekends. They are preseason games. That sort of thing can easily be sorted out.

I'm not sure about the dates, but I know the teams themselves in the NFL set up their preseason games. IOW, the Pats pick the teams they're going to play in the preseason, and the NFL can help if needed. But I don't know how the date scheduling works.

Actually, I think it is better that the BC/FSU game is announced now, less likely that the Rev schedule will be moved.

Maybe they had that movie scheduled for early august which made the nfl preseason options limited for the Pats.

I'll give the owner the benefit of the doubt on last year's schedule changes.

Shouldn't they be announcing the scheudle soon? I mean the draft's over and preseason will be starting fairly soon. Shouldn't they have it all scheduled by now?

Not to steer this thread off topic, but I'm ok with not having a home game on Labor Day weekend. As bad as our crowds have been, they are usually worse during holiday weekends.

Shouldn't they be announcing the scheudle soon? I mean the draft's over and preseason will be starting fairly soon. Shouldn't they have it all scheduled by now?They have to figure out where the Whizzers are going to play before they can start scheduling games. You never know, there might be a big high school football game in Kansas that bumps the schedule out....

Last year's schedule came out on the 14th of February, less than two month prior to the start. I'm expecting this one to be around the same.

Took me a while, but I found it. With no resolution yet in KC, I'd say sit tight. No schedule has ever been released this early and the trend is late Jan./early Feb.

2006 - Feb. 8, 2006
2005 - Feb. 14, 2005
2004 - Jan. 27, 2004
2003 - Jan. 7, 2003
2002 - Jan. 24, 2002
2001 - Dec. 7, 2000
2000 - Jan. 11, 2000

EDIT: Hadn't seen those openers announced. Interesting. And ESPN's advance schedule finally has some date son it, but with no teams attached yet. 7 p.m. kickoffs on 4/12, 4/19 and 4/26 are in the offing.

Can't they give them TBAs on the location like they gave us for times last year?:rolleyes:

Or just contract KC for a season!
Nothing against KC, I just want to go back to the 32 game balanced schedule. Especially since we will be gauranteed one home game against LA, maybe it would be after he comes to!

Too late for that. That would have needed to happen before the expansion draft.

Eh, just give them all paid vacation.
