Packers-Titans Aug. 28 Preseason Game Moved AheadNASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- The Green Bay Packers and the Tennessee Titans are moving up kickoff of their preseason finale on Aug. 28 to allow their local TV partners to switch earlier to coverage of the Democratic convention. The game in Green Bay coincides with the final night of the Democratic convention when the party's presumptive nominee Barack Obama is scheduled to speak from Denver. The teams had been scheduled to kick off at 7 p.m. CDT but announced Wednesday the game now will start at 6 p.m. CDT. Packers spokesman Jeff Blumb said both teams' TV partners had approached the clubs with their interest in joining network coverage of the convention as close to 9 p.m. as possible.
