'''''Monday Night Football''''' is a [[Long Runner|long-running]] weekly broadcast of NFL ([[American Football]]) games. Debuting in 1970 on [[American Broadcasting Company|ABC]], the program was conceived as both an answer to Major League Baseball's ''Game of the Week'' (and the NHL's ''[[Hockey Night in Canada]]'') and a showcase for the best teams in the NFL, as the league traditionally uses the coveted ''Monday Night'' slot to spotlight matches between high caliber teams.
There were some Monday night games on [[CBS]] in the late 1960s as a sort of test run of the concept, but they were not played every week. Those games are not considered part of the series as such.
