here is how the schedule works so u know. play 1 division in the nfc and 1 in the afc that rotates every year. we play our division. then we play the same teams in our conference that finished in the same rankings as we did in our division. giants 3rd in nfce. panthers 3rd in nfcs. then we play bears 3rd in nfc north and we play the nfc west this year. GOTS IT?

I did not know that's how it worked. I knew the rotated divisions but didn't know the other part. Can't believe I've never heard that before. Thanks.

I think a new rotation started in 2010 (so that East Coast teams didn't have road trips to both SD/OAK or SEA/SF in the same year.) That played into it cause that shouldn't happen. In a 3 year rotation, if you face the same team, you should at least play one of them at home.

it's been said quite a bit around here but keeps falling on deaf ears.
they started that a couple years back so all teams played each other. not sure when tho
started in 2002 and was an 8 year rotation providing each team with a chance to play every other team in the league at least twice, one home and one away. came with the realignment of the divisions in 2002.

as to how they decide who gets home field advantage in any given year, i saw it somewhere but i can't remember. i do know that it has been determined for a pretty good while.

good thing is that we get to face chicago here. i don't know if that's any better but if they get that offense straightened out i know i'd rather be playing the bears at home than the giants. you give cutler a better oline and a better receiver and that offense is going to be really good. he'll still be a punk who can be picked apart but i trust that happening here more than there.

giants...meh. not worried about that. they do have one RB that is going o be a concern, though...gartrell johnson. that kid is going to be fierce in the near future. we usually do a pretty decent job against the best RBs in the league, though.

    • Like a lot of things in today's economy, market concentration is a huge issue in the vet space. Mars (yeah, the chocolate company) owns roughly half of them with their control of Banfield and VCA as well as numerous smaller chains. Oh, and all that Royal Canon food the vets are prescribing and recommending? Yeah, that's owned by Mars too. Don't even get me started on the racket that is "prescription" dog food and how incredibly uneducated the average vet is on basic pet nutrition. Back to the actual clinics... private equity ghouls who care about literally nothing but profit own another 30%. Now you're down to roughly 20-25% of clinics that aren't under the thumb of Mars or private equity.
    • I just listened to Devil in the Desert.  😳
    • like any profession, a lot of them are very greedy and balloon up bills.  My buddy is a vet.   When he was first starting out he had BIG issues with the vet he was employed with because he was expected to drive up bills.    He now owns his own practice driven by that very reason.  Good man that wants to sleep good at night....doing what he set out to do at a young age (with the same reason in mind, to help animals and people).  But per him, a HUGE % of small animal vets are just gouging the f out of people.  like most things, I want the most mom and pop variety I can find.  The bigger practice, like most businesses, it more likely is owned and operated to make as much money as possible at the end of the day.
