Maybe so but it's Christmas! Wouldn't the players want to stay home or something?!

Obviously you Americans are a weird bunch, cashing in your holidays "vacation" for money.

I'd cash in my vacation too if football was all I had to do. It's tradition, Monday Night Football. And the Dallas Cowboys on Thanksgiving. You'd have to be a fan to understand.

Ok, you have a point but not everyone celebrates Christmas. I bet you don't even know what Christmas is about.
