Awaiting first night game of 2012.

The NFL master schedule is coming out Tuesday.

No less an NFL authority than CBS's Jim "Scoop" Nantz announced it on air during a golf tournament.

Thankfully the website that concocted a phony master schedule just to get page views admitted it did just that. But not until several websites jumped all over the bogus schedule to drive up their traffic.

That's life in the digital age. You don't always get what you want, or what you need. You get what you get. Take the websites using the bogus schedule for what they're worth.
