With the news that the NFL owners and players have finally reached an accord on a new collective bargaining agreement, it means the silly bickering, lawsuits and stakeouts outside meetings can finally end and we can get back to the business of football. It means the season will start on-time, but it also means the next week will feel like the Wild, Wild West as there will be a massive free agent signing frenzy and training camps open for the first time since the lockout was imposed in March.
I promised on Twitter that I would repost the NFL’s TV partners 2011 regular season schedules once labor peace was reached and that time is now.
First, I post NBC’s Sunday Night Football schedule which was released back in April.
