I went back to the Week 5 page for the NFL Maps website and noticed something interesting: On Wednesday, October 8, the Jacksonville Fox affiliate requested a switch from their originally scheduled game (winless Tampa Bay at Philadelphia) to the network's "A game" (Dallas at Kansas City, Joe Buck and Co. with the call). Then, the very next day, they switched back to the Tampa/Philly game. How in the world could they get away with that?
I also wanted to add that, while the person behind the NFL Maps page provides a valuable service, I really think he's "phoned it in" with regards to market listings. Starting this year, the markets are listed on the pages, as opposed to the affiliates in the markets, which was the practice as recently as last year.
