You'll have to wait 10 minutes longer for 49ers-Packers kickoff

The NFL on Thursday announced time changes for late Sunday doubleheader games on CBS and FOX that will move kickoff times in the Pacific time zone back 10 minutes to 1:25 p.m.The schedule changes is expected to impact seven 49ers start times, including the season opener at Green Bay and five home games.The later kickoff times will reduce instances in which fans miss the end of the 10 a.m. game telecast because they must receive the opening kickoff of their home team's 1 p.m. game. In addition, fans not in the cities of the late doubleheader opponents will be less likely to miss the beginning of the late doubleheader game, the NFL announced.embedly_twitter_78958053background:url(http:a0.twimg.comimagesthemestheme1bg.png) C0DEED; padding:20px; embedly_twitter_78958053 pbackground:fff;padding:10px 12px 0px 12px;margin:0;min-height:48px;color:000;font-size:18px;line-height:22px;-moz-border-radius:5px;-webkit-border-radius:5px embedly_twitter_78958053 .embedly_tweet_contentbackground:fff;padding:10px 12px 10px 12px;margin:0;min-height:48px;color:000;font-size:18px !important;line-height:22px;-moz-border-radius:5px;-webkit-border-radius:5px embedly_twitter_78958053 p span.metadatadisplay:block;width:100;clear:both;margin-top:0px;height:40px; padding-bottom: 12px; embedly_twitter_78958053 p span.metadata span.authorline-height:15px;color:999;font-size:14px embedly_twitter_78958053 p span.metadata span.author aline-height:15px;font-size:20px;vertical-align:middle embedly_twitter_78958053 p span.metadata span.author imgfloat:left;margin:0 10px 0 0px;width:48px;height:48px embedly_twitter_78958053 p a color: 0084B4; text-decoration:none; embedly_twitter_78958053 p a:hovertext-decoration:underline embedly_twitter_78958053 .embedly_timestampfont-size:13px;display:inline-block;margin-top: 5px; embedly_twitter_78958053 .components-above span.embedly_timestampfont-size:10px;margin-top: 1px;line-height:12px embedly_twitter_78958053 a color: 0084B4; text-decoration:none; embedly_twitter_78958053 a:hovertext-decoration:underline embedly_twitter_78958053 .tweet-screen-name font-size: 14px; font-weight: bold; embedly_twitter_78958053 .tweet-full-name padding-left: 4px; color: 999; font-size: 12px; embedly_twitter_78958053 .tweet-actionsmargin-left: 10px;font-size:13px;display:inline-block;width:250px embedly_twitter_78958053 .components-above span.tweet-actionsfont-size:10px embedly_twitter_78958053 .controlsline-height:12px!important embedly_twitter_78958053 .tweet-actions a margin-left:5px embedly_twitter_78958053 .tweet-actions a bfont-weight:normal embedly_twitter_78958053 .components-above span.tweet-actions a bvertical-align:baseline;line-height:12px embedly_twitter_78958053 .components-above .tweet-textfont-size:13px;vertical-align:baseline embedly_twitter_78958053 .tweet-image float: left; width: 40px; embedly_twitter_78958053 .tweet-user-block-image float: left; width: 48px; height: 48px embedly_twitter_78958053 .tweet-row margin-left: 40px; margin-top: 3px;line-height: 17px; embedly_twitter_78958053 .tweet-user-block margin-left: -40px; embedly_twitter_78958053 .stream-item padding-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 12px; embedly_twitter_78958053 .simple-tweet-image img margin-top: 4px; embedly_twitter_78958053 .simple-tweet-content margin: 0 0 13px 0px; font-size: 14px; min-height:48px; embedly_twitter_78958053 .in-reply-to-border border-color: EBEBEB; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px 0 0; embedly_twitter_78958053 .in-reply-to-text margin-left: 4px; padding-left: 8px; padding-right: 10px; color: 999; font-size: 12px; embedly_twitter_78958053 .tweet-actions i background: transparent url(http:a2.twimg.coma1306889658phoeniximgsprite-icons.png) no-repeat;width:15px;height:15px;margin:0 4px -3px 3px;outline: none; text-indent:-99999px;vertical-align:baseline;display:inline-block;position:relative; embedly_twitter_78958053 .tweet-actions a.retweet-action i background-position:-192px 0; embedly_twitter_78958053 .tweet-actions a.reply-action i background-position:0 0; embedly_twitter_78958053 .tweet-actions a.favorite-action i background-position:-32px 0;MaioccoCSN Matt MaioccoKckoff times for Sunday late afternoon doubleheader games on CBS and FOX will be moved from 1:15 pm to 1:25 pm this season, NFL announces.Jun 28FavoriteRetweetReplyin reply to@MaioccoCSN@jmck214
