    Has been rescheduled for Monday night due to weather and Giants not being able to get in town as quick as they needed. Has this ever happened before? Too bad it can't be a double header but this game starts at 8pm

    You forgot Saints/ Katrina? Chargers had to move due to forest fires a few years ago and the Dolphins have hurricanes fuck shit up once in a while.

    The NFL was not in the habit of cancelling games due to weather. Former Commissioner Paul Tagliabue cancelled all games the Sunday following the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001, but even the New Orleans Saints didn't miss a game in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. The NFL simply moved the Saints' home opener in 2005 to, interestingly enough, Giants Stadium.

    "The Tennessee Titans beat the Miami Dolphins 17-7 in the season opener on Saturday, Sep 11th. The game had been moved up a day to allow both teams to avoid getting clobbered or stranded by Hurricane Ivan, although that would later turn out to be unnecessary as Ivan decided to take his anger out on Jamaica and Cuba and spare South Florida."

    In 2003, a MNF game was moved from SD to Tempe because the Qualcomm lot was housing residents evacuated by widlfires

    Evidently they don`t expect a lot of snow for Minneapolis. Its just a plot to get Farve some extra time.

    Nope. As of right now it's been cancelled, but the Univ. of Minny has offered their place and the NFL is considering it.
