↵World Series Game Four: San Francisco Giants at Texas Rangers, 8:20, Fox: They say a series doesn't start until a home team loses, which means you're set to just watch football today, as we'll let you know when this thing kicks off for realsies. Tommy Hunter takes on Madison Bumgarner, and you could take the world's most casual baseball fan who's been cryogenically frozen for the past thirty years, show him those two names, and ask him which pitcher represents the state of Texas and which will be working for the city of San Francisco, and he'd give you the correct answer.
↵Football
↵Jacksonville Jaguars at Dallas Cowboys
, 1, CBS: Not a soul on earth has any reason to watch this game. This is not only the worst game of the weekend, counting Wake Forest-Maryland, this may be the worst game of the NFL season. You would rather watch the Denver Broncos and San Francisco 49ers in London. You would rather watch the Denver Broncos and San Francisco 49ers in a reenactment of the invention of the motherboard. You would rather watch a motherboard, doin' what it does. You would rather listen to Red Shirt Guy speak for three hours than watch this abomination.
↵Green Bay Packers at New York Jets
, 1, Fox: Fox sets new viewership records as millions of sports fans across the country tune in to see two of the best teams in the NFL and several other millions join them seconds later after beholding what CBS has going. Fox reacts by doubling its World Series promos to once every five minutes.
↵Minnesota Vikings at New England Patriots
, 4:15, Fox: Will Randy Moss' cell phone ankle Jenn Sterger? Will Tom Brady haircut retirement games played streak? Will Brett Favre trade Bill Belichick Wranglers? Will Bill Belichick naked pics fourth down Wes Welker? Will Deanna Favre Tony Dungy Good Morning America? Will anyone shut up and let us watch a playoff team maul a non-playoff team?
↵Pittsburgh Steelers at New Orleans Saints, 8:20, NBC: Again, if you're betting on a tabloid quarterback in an arena packed with Halloween'd Cajuns who have an entire weekend worth of tailgating in their bellies, you have a very unique grasp of financial concepts, and I'd be interested in learning more about how you went astray. The Atlanta Falcons took the Steelers to overtime in Pittsburgh -- if the Saints can't beat them at home, this division's been a wrapped one. GAME OF THE DAY!
