Jigga Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 Oh, HELL no! This looks like some silly "America Decides 2008" Election Night logo. The name is campy and forced. Besides, sunday night is not football night in America. Friday night is! On January 16, 2013 at 3:49 PM, NJTank said: Btw this is old hat for Notre Dame.

Gamingboy Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 The name is campy and forced. Besides, sunday night is not football night in America. Friday night is! Agreed. To this day, Football can only be truly felt in a high school game (especially in the South, although I've never been to one there). It's Football distilled into it's purest form, like a backyard game of Baseball or a inner-city Basketball game. Insert Witty Signature Here.

rynoz10 Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 It's ok, it doesn't evoke any emotions either way. I have to agree though it does look like an election logo not a sports logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bleujayone Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 Looks like someone's trying to rip off "CBC's Hockey Night in Canada" and doing a bad job doing so. I agree the logo does look like a hood ornimate. Maybe it seeme cliche to ask for a football or helmet in the logo, but at least we could tell what it represents without reading everything. One of the points of having a logo is having a symbol that is instantly recognaizable without reading everything. Other than the NFL shield this logo doesn't look very football-like. Even the word "football" takes a backseat to "America". It doesn't even say what day "football night" falls under. at least ABC's "Monday Night Football" said so. I can think of better names that "Football Night in America", "NBC presents GRIDIRON", "NFL Sunday Finale", "Sunday Night Showdown"Considering that people have been watching football all weekend; Friday-high school, Saturday-college, Sunday-pro, alot of people are going to be pretty much footballed out come Sunday night. If the two teams playing really stink, it's a lopsided matchup, or a meaningless game I see them falling into the same pitfall had fallen into in recent years. We all have our little faults.

Viper Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 Was "NBC Sunday Night Football" just too confusing?No, it's just (technically) a different program. SNF is the title for the game itself; FNIA is the title for the pregame/recap-of-the-earlier-games show before the game (i.e. NBC's version of NFL Prime Time).Looks like someone's trying to rip off "CBC's Hockey Night in Canada" and doing a bad job doing so. I agree the logo does look like a hood ornimate. [...] Other than the NFL shield this logo doesn't look very football-like. Even the word "football" takes a backseat to "America". Couldn't agree more. Also, the banner that says "America" looks out of place against the metal, well, hood ornament. It's not as though they'll need to swap in different banners for use in other countries.Update: The Wikipedia page for FNIA claims that the name was indeed intentionally lifted from HNIC (and also from NBC's own short-lived Baseball Night in America).

VitaminD Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 Considering that people have been watching football all weekend; Friday-high school, Saturday-college, Sunday-pro, alot of people are going to be pretty much footballed out come Sunday night. If the two teams playing really stink, it's a lopsided matchup, or a meaningless game I see them falling into the same pitfall had fallen into in recent years. Not sure what you're driving at here.There've been pro football games played on Sunday night (in America) for 15 years; they've just been on ESPN. People will be no more or less "footballed out" this season than in seasons past simply because the SUnday night game has switched networks.Moreover, there's been pro football on Monday night for twice as long. How is putting the NFL Sunday night game on over-the-air networks going to change the situation that's existed for many years? If anything, NBC's been granted some scheduling flexibility for weeks 10-15 (they can choose the game of the week much later than in years past), so your worry about the matchup being lopsided are even more unfounded. "Start spreading the news... They're leavin' today... Won't get to be a part of it... In old New York..."In order for the Mets' run of 12 losses in 17 games to mean something, the Phillies still had to win 13 of 17. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hecticbro Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 What I find ironic about this is the fact that the NFL is increasingly adding more games on nights that aren't Sunday.... So Sunday's not the only Night of Football in America anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rams80 Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 i am still curious on what they are going to with the show during the non football season? Bring back the AFL?Show indoor or semi-pro football until the CFL starts, then show the CFL?Really, if you think about it, you could (theoretically) show football every week on tv.
