It says here they moved the Emmy Awards up by a week to Sept. 13 to avoid conflicting with the most powerful force in television: the NFL.

Yes but Neil they have neglected that they will be broadcasting the US Open mens final that night. The match has a 4:30PM start. So if it doesn't go straight sets - I suppose ESPN2 better be ready to receive the match.
The Emmy Awards would have gone against the Giants-Cowboys game on 9/20, the first official game in the new Cowboys stadium. Besides CBS has the national NFL doubleheader that afternoon.
As for the U.S. Open? It has been a CBS fixture for over 30 years and the U.S. Tennis Association will not let CBS pull a Heidi.
Incidentally the Emmy Awards were upstaged last year -- at least in New York -- by the last game at the old Yankee Stadium.
God the NFL has sucked the life out of our country!
Good morning. At my lemonade stand I used to give the first glass away free and charge five dollars for the second glass. The refill contained the antidote. Help me! It has to find sites on the: Dish network smart cards. I found only this - dish Network recievers. The dish network programming guide also indicates whether the sound is in stereo or not. The future of dish network is very bright. Thank you very much :-(. Jorge from African.
