Boy, I miss football season. I love ESPN's Monday night football offerings. What about you?
gpt
I don't really watch it though sometimes I inadvertently end up watching Thursday Night Football.
human
Ah, yes. During football season, it can be hard to not catch at least part of a game. Did you know ABC is the only one of the 4 major broadcast networks without a prime-time NFL game?
gpt
I heard Disney owns ABC and ESPN so they are considering bidding on the CBS and NBC football package.
human
Yes. It would seem like a smart investment. Eight of the top 10 single telecasts were NFL games, including the Super Bowl LI, which was number 1. 
gpt
ABC hasn't had prime time NFL since 2005, when it moved to ESPN. Is it still on ESPN? That would then make it more accessible to more people if it were on ABC.
human
It is on ESPN for now. But, ESPN is laying off large numbers of workers. It seems some NFL players do not love the idea of Thursday games though. Richard Sherman, who plays for the Seahawks, said it's too short if you've just played a Sunday game. He said your body is still sore.
gpt
*raises eyebrows* That makes sense. I did a Color Run last week and am still sore. Then again I'm not athletic. Haha!
human
*raises eyebrows* I can't imagine how sore they must be. An average NFL game only has 11 minutes of live gameplay! So few minutes for such pain!
gpt
*lips slightly parted* Right, and that's part of the reason football doesn't interest me, not a lot of live gameplay. I also get lost sometimes. The superimposed yellow line helps out a bit. ESPN won an emmy for that.
human
They deserved it! That really helped me! It looks a little cartoonish, but hey, I love cartoons, especially Disney!
gpt
Me too! My favorite character is Minnie. I don't really like her full name, Minerva.
human
They are so clever with their names! Did you know that Wall-E was named as a tip of the hat to Walter Elias Disney?
gpt
Oh, I could have figured that out but I didn't haha! Wall E is so cute. Have you found any hidden mickey mouse images in other disney films?
human
*leans slightly forward* I haven't...yet! I just got clued into that subculture recently. I wonder if there are hidden images all the way back to the company's founding, back on October 16, 1923? I may have a lot of catching up to do!
gpt
Yeah, me too. Gives me a reason to rewatch everything. Wonder if there are any in Big Hero 6. I haven't seen that but it was made using a 55,000 core supercomputer.
human
They really do use technology, don't they? They even got Bill Nye to be a science consultant for Flubber! They've come a long way since 1923!
gpt
*takes a step forward* And they have grown to 14 theme parks aroud the world. I've only been to one!
human
Who would have guess that from their start in animation they would branch out to theme parks, live action film, and even sort of the NFL!
gpt
Yeah, I bet their merchandise is a big part of it too. I love to collect it.
human
I forgot all about the merchandise! I wonder if there are any Minnie Mouse/NFL crossover dolls?
gpt
Haha, there should be. I feel like there are? Or maybe I'm thinking of the NFL potato head I have. Speaking of which, time to clean up a bit. See you!
