It’s probably my favorite day of the year. The NFL schedule will officially be announced at 7 p.m. I’ve had a 13-year track record of getting it before anyone in the market and the past two years — with our text service ready to send it out directly to you on your phone — we’ve been able to service the WNST community and Raven Maniacs with it before it’s available anywhere.
(Here’s the joke of the day. I had a Ravens official text me this morning and ask me to send it to them when I get it before they do.)
Who knows? Maybe this is the year that I DON’T get it first. But I have my moles out all across the country.
And either way, it’s kinda fun for an old-school journalist and reporter like me. I know the deadline. It’s 7 p.m.
Now, can I get it to you before NFL Network does?
Hmmmm…
We’ll see.
But I do like my chances. And by 7:30 tonight we’ll all know what days we can begin to plan for San Diego, Oakland, Minnesota and Green Bay. We will DEFINITELY be doing road trips and parties on the road during the 2009 season.
Join the text service here and we’ll see how I do.
