NFL Network’s Schedule Through Tuesday

For some reason, I just wasn’t in the mood to blog last night so I found a way to watch “The Tenth Inning” and also watched a screener of the ESPN 30 for 30 documentary “Four Days in October” of which I’ll review this weekend. And I totally forgot to do the viewing picks which were up an hour late this morning.

Anyway, let’s give you what’s on tap for NFL Network from today through next Tuesday. Thanks to the fine people at NFL Network PR for sending this schedule.
