What Time Do Monday Night Football Come On Tonight
Okay, let's get real. It's almost Monday. You're probably already thinking about one thing: Monday Night Football.
The big question swirling in your head is: What time does that pigskin actually fly tonight?
The Anticipation is Real (and Annoying)
We all know the drill. The weekend is winding down. Sunday's games are fading into memory.
Must Read
Suddenly, Monday looms. It’s like a giant, football-shaped cloud on the horizon. You either embrace it or run from it!
The Standard Kickoff Time (Maybe)
Generally speaking, Monday Night Football games kick off around 8:15 PM Eastern Time. Seems simple enough, right?
Wrong! There are always exceptions. Like daylight savings, and that random week where they decide to start 15 minutes earlier. Because why not mess with our perfectly scheduled lives?
Don't even get me started on West Coast viewers. You guys have it rough. Stay strong!
The Internet is Your Friend (Probably)
If you're truly desperate (and let's face it, you are if you're reading this), a quick Google search is your best bet.
Just type in "Monday Night Football schedule" or "what time is MNF tonight?" and let the internet gods provide.
But be warned! Clickbait abounds! You might end up on a site telling you about Tom Brady's favorite avocado toast recipe instead. Stay focused.
My Unpopular Opinion: It's Too Late!
Okay, here's where I might lose some of you. I think 8:15 PM is just too late for a Monday night game!
I mean, come on! Some of us have jobs! And kids! And the overwhelming desire to be in bed by 10 PM. Is that too much to ask?
Seriously, by the time the second quarter rolls around, I'm practically asleep on the couch. And then I have to pretend I saw all the amazing plays when my coworkers ask me about it the next day.
"Oh yeah, that touchdown? Totally saw it. Incredible athleticism. Remarkable." - Me, barely conscious
Maybe they should move it to 7:00 PM. Or maybe just get rid of Monday Night Football altogether. (Okay, I'm kidding... mostly.)
But Seriously, Check Your Listings
Ultimately, the most reliable way to find out what time Monday Night Football starts is to check your local listings.
Your TV guide, the ESPN website, even that ancient thing called a newspaper (do those still exist?) can provide the answer.
Because, let's be honest, nobody wants to miss the kickoff. Especially if you have money riding on it.
Enjoy the Game (or Try To)
So, good luck figuring out the kickoff time. And may your team win (unless they're playing my team, in which case, may they lose spectacularly).
Just remember, even if the game is terrible and your team is getting slaughtered, at least it's something to talk about at the water cooler on Tuesday.
And if you fall asleep on the couch, well, there's always DVR. Or a strong cup of coffee in the morning.
