That the NFL is one of the most innovative sports competitions on the planet is beyond dispute. It has everything. The public, since it is the most followed league in the United States. The excitement, with a season that leads to the Super Bowl, a mass phenomenon that stops the country of the stars and stripes. And the stars, with names like Patrick Mahomes, Joe Burrow or Lamar Jackson in command of the operations looking for victories. Football is more than a fashion. It’s a sensation. And it doesn’t stop offering incredible news.

In this great mix of sports sensations and emotions, a very special one will come for Monday Night Football (game on Monday night in the United States) between the Dallas Cowboys and Cincinnati Bengals in week 14 of the competition (already in the final stretch of the regular season). Because it is a clash that will be broadcast by ESPN, the American sports television giant, and Disney, which owns it, is innovating to attract even more audiences.
Because Disney will mix the NFL with one of its icons, the Simpsons. Yeah, it’s not any kind of joke. The Cowboys-Bengals at AT&T Stadium will have its conversion, in real time, to the world of Springfield. The NFL announced this clash of worlds, and there the Simpson family will be the main protagonist with Bart and Homer captaining the two franchises. Therefore, both ESPN and Disney will broadcast the game… but each in their own way.

…with controversy
Furthermore, Cowboys-Bengals is not just any game. The Dallas franchise has been, since time immemorial, the great team in America, and in the United States many sympathize with the Texans. Furthermore, Cincinnati, although it is not having a good time in sports, has Joe Burrow as a star, an icon of the current NFL. It is unbeatable, although there have been doubts.
For the sports issue, precisely. Neither franchise is performing, and many wondered if the NFL was going to change its MNF as it has altered other schedules to offer its best games in its main time slots. He won’t be able to. The technical resources have been very high to be able to transform a game into the world of the Simpsons and it would be too late to change the game.
