Add to the fact that the Office's repeat ratings had to be affected by the big delay in Golf...Seriously we lost like a whole part 2 of an episode and 20 minutes of part 1 of another..

You can't tell me that a re-airing of Friday Night Lights wouldn't do at least this well. For the people that were actually at a high school football game on Friday's when it was on it would be a first run...
