“How do I keep my child/childs away from all the garbage that’s on television these days?” We at SB Nation are asked this question every day. Firstly, I’d like to advise that the plural of “child” is actually “children,” but secondly: we have your answer! Plenty of football starts at 12 p.m. EST Saturday. The games are listed below, complete with the networks that will broadcast them. It ought to be more than enough to distract your little tyke from tuning in to that awful Charlie Rose or all that irresponsible Nickelodeon programming (I’ve never seen a talking sponge!).
Noon Football Games: Relatively Wholesome Family Programming
Of course, being a good parent doesn’t just mean plopping your kids in front of a football game, mimicking the “dust off hands” gesture, and calling it a day. You should engage them in conversation! And what better way to do so than to visit the team-specific SB Nation blogs? Check out blogs like Burnt Orange Nation or Black Heart Gold Pants for live game discussion threads, previews, and other features that aren’t terribly detrimental to a young man or woman’s well-being.
