Why the hell are they showing (game x)? If Sundays at your house are anything like mine, they usually involve some viewing of football (that of the North American incarnation).  Here in New York, Giants and Jets games reign supreme on the airwaves.  But usually, one of the two networks will show a second game, which often seems chosen at random.  As a New England Patriots fan, I often hope the "random" game will be the good 'ol Pats.  But it often isn't.  I've often wondered, is there any rhyme or reason to this?  Well, I don't have an answer, but check out these NFL TV distribution maps, which give a timeslot by timeslot breakdown of what games are seen where.  Very cool. 

Oh, and it looks like the New York area will again miss out on the Pats this weekend.
