so who does it benefit ?
Negatives
supporters - the average supporter who works 5 days a week (not to mention those on longer hours) being able to get to a game at 7pm  is very difficult if the game is near where you live, impossible if its elsewhere
Children - if you have to take kids on a school night is very hard, shouldn't the game be wanting more kids at the game as they are the $ the game will get in the future
home clubs - lose revenue because  of lower crowds and less sales in food etc merchandise
players - short turnaround makes preparing for next hard, wait around all weekend & Monday for their game
corporate sponsors - Â How many corporate sponsors can fill their boxes on a Monday night ?
Tour companies - they get totally screwed by mnf as it  makes it difficult to get numbers as some people would need to take 2 days off to go to away games in other states etc
Coverage - Radio coverage is terrible for country people without pc access
