Obama To Wrap Before NFL Kickoff
The White House had to make clear today that its decision to move President Obama’s jobs speech to Sept. 8 would not conflict with that night’s Thursday night edition of NBC’s “Sunday Night Football,” which kicks off the 2011-12 NFL season.
The matchup between the last two Super Bowl champions – The Green Bay Packers and the New Orleans Saints – will air at 8:30 p.m. EDT, well after Obama’s address is scheduled to end, the White House swears.
