NFL schedule-maker admits Buccaneers drew short end of stick

On Wednesday night the NFL released the schedules for all 32 teams, and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, well, drew an unfavorable draw. Now the NFL’s senior director of broadcast planning and scheduling Mike North has publicly stated he wishes he could have “another shot” at the Buccaneers schedule.

“If we had to do-over, if we had a redo, I’d love to take another shot at that Tampa Bay schedule… I’m not sure that’s really fair to their fans. I’m hopeful that we didn’t do something to the Buccaneers that they feel like is really unfair.
