M&C After Show Podcast: Making Monday After The Big Game A National Holiday
It’s been talked about for a while, but in this edition of the M&C “After Show” Podcast, should we make the Monday after the Super Bowl a National Holiday?
That’s the discussion The Mike & Carla Morning Show had this morning. According to a recent article put out on SWNS, 55% of those surveyed feel that the Monday afterward should indeed be a holiday.
Not too mention, those that do go into work after that Sunday are less productive anyway. So, the argument is why not just make it a holiday for everyone to recooperate?
Now an idea of playing the game on a Saturday clearly caught the Kelce Brother’s off guard during their recent podcast “New Heights”. God forbid we should just move the game to a day earlier. That way you had that Sunday off most likely.
In the “After Show” podcast, both Mike O’Brian & Carla Rea agreed that there is no way we should make the Monday after a national “holiday”. Suck it up, take a couple aspirin and make it into work!
M&C even talked about moving the game up a few hours earlier on that Sunday. Instead of starting it 3:30pm as they have in the past, start the game at 12:30pm. That way even the fans back east can watch the game, then have time to sober up and be ready for work in the morning!
Or again, just move the game to Saturday! Why is this such a big deal? On the other hand, if your team is in the game and you live in that city, then fine, have the city Fathers proclaim it so you don’t need to go into work the next day.
Otherwise, keep it on Sunday, play the game and just face the fact that you’re going to have to work in the morning the next day!
