ALL NEW! Here is the intro (with sponsor billboard) to the NFL Today Thanksgiving edition in 1988 before the Vikings-Lions game. This was the last year CBS used the Robots intro on the NFL Today.
@Reed Rothchild This is before Les Moonves ruined The NFL Today and turned it into a Fox NFL Sunday and ESPN NFL Countdown clone when James Brown rejoined CBS in 2006 and added comedy to it to compete against Fox and ESPN. Too bad Moonves' attempt failed, LOL. I mean, pregame shows are pregame shows, not some comedy sketch crap. Anyone agree? In fact, NBC's pregame show is the only serious one right now.
@Reed Rothchild Les Moonves ruined The NFL Today when James Brown returned to CBS in 2006 and turned it into a Fox NFL Sunday and ESPN NFL Countdown clone by adding comedy to it compete against Fox and ESPN. SMH. Thank goodness NBC doesn't do comedy on their pregame show tho.
@Nickrj3 You know, I have never noticed that until now... Super Password did air after the Macy's Parade in the years when NBC had the Dallas Thanksgiving game... Great catch! :)
WREYtube , do you have the game open sponsor plugs and halftime plugs and 1st and 3rd quarter plugs to the thanksgiving game between detroit and minnesota?
