I'm apparently not so good at this vacation thing. Here's your just-released Giants schedule.

The toughest stretch on here is the Redskins, Eagles and Cowboys in successive weeks from Weeks 13 - 15. That's a difficult stretch, especially toward the end of the year.

Week 1 -- Sept. 4 (Thursday) vs. Washington, 7 p.m.
Week 2 -- Sept. 14 at St. Louis Rams, 1 p.m.
Week 3 -- Sept. 21 vs. Cincinnati Bengals, 1 p.m.
Week 4 -- Sept. 28 Bye
Week 5 -- Oct. 5 vs. Seattle Seahawks, 1 p.m.
Week 6 -- Oct. 13 at Cleveland Browns, (Mon.) 8:30 p.m.
Week 7 -- Oct. 19 vs. San Francisco 49ers, 1 p.m.
Week 8 -- Oct. 26 at Pittsburgh Steelers, 4:15 p.m.
Week 9 -- Nov. 2 vs. Dallas Cowboys, 4:15 p.m.
Week 10 -- Nov. 9 at Philadelphia Eagles, 8:15 p.m.
Week 11 -- Nov. 16 vs. Baltimore Ravens, 1 p.m.
Week 12 -- Nov. 23 at Arizona Cardinals, 4:15 p.m.
Week 13 -- Nov. 30 at Washington Redskins, 1 p.m.
Week 14 -- Dec. 7 vs. Philadelphia Eagles, 1 p.m.
Week 15 -- Dec. 14 at Dallas Cowboys*, 8:15 p.m.
Week 16 -- Dec. 21 vs. Carolina Panthers, 1 p.m.
Week 17 -- Dec. 28 at Minnesota Vikings, 1 p.m.

* Subject to change.

Yay for new schedules!

I was planning to attend the Vikings game, since it's in my neck of the woods, but now I'm kinda bummed it's a week 17 game (e.g. meaningless).

My favorite part of the schedule - we make a four week run through the old NFC East litter: Cards, Skins, Eagles, then Cowboys. Good times.

week 17

last year was Pats-Giants, it was the best "meaningless" game I've ever been to. I'd go to the Week 17 game anyway if I were you.

BEAUTIFUL!!!!!

I'm going to AZ for the game, and November is maybe the best month of the year out there, the weather is perfect

Oh, well

Still no respect, I guess.

I wouldn't read too much into it.

Monday's not the big deal that it used to be when ABC carried the games. ESPN doesn't draw nearly as well. And NBC has that flexible schedule that allows them to flip Sunday games late in the season, depending upon who's the best draw.

A better gauge might be how many of their network games (i.e., Fox and CBS) are broadcast nationally. And right now there's no way of knowing that.
