Hey, not everyone here has the option of getting NFL network. I on the other hand have NFL-network HD...it is really nice.

Tell your cable company to go take a hike and put up a satellite. Join the revolution. :p:

This I say as I sit here sipping on a drink awaiting the installer that's coming ot swap out my 3 lnb dish for a 5 lnb dish and attach my brand spanking new Dual Tuner HD DVR box to my 60 inch sxrd. I'm going to be in Cowboys heaven this Sunday.

She's late though. Got stuck on another job and won't be here til after 7pm..GRRRR (you know i'm waiting all night if I have to though) :lmao2:

I would LOVE to do that, as the cable company here in Iowa (Mediacom) is absolutely TERRIBLE. The worst customer service I have ever seen. That being said I live in an apartment, and like another person already mentioned, there is no room, nor is it allowed to have a dish. I'm stuck with cable untill my lease runs out in July.

I think I speak for everybody in this predicament when I say I'm not switching my entire network provider so I can watch one football game. It's a ridiculous situation, but to paint it with such a broad brush and blame the consumers is a bit much.

I had Mediacom down here in Florida. Straight garbage. I just completely got rid of any instance of Mediacom in my house about 9 months ago. I haven't been happier than I am today. :D

I agree. The situation is ridiculous. However, if you look at the value of having NFL Network then you would agree that the cable companies should do a little negotiation. Notice that not all of the cable companies are going without it. The smart ones are sucking it up and carrying it.

Regardless, The consumer is never to blame. Period...

Oh I agree, cable companies, namely TWC (my provider) should absolutely be carrying the NFL Network. But as I understand it the NFL Network has been completely unreasonable and has highballed every money amount they've come in with. I don't necessarily think it's smart to give in to over-the-top demands for a network that has yet to really sink its teeth into the market.

But the fact remains that millions upon millions of NFL fans will not see these games until somebody capitulates. I highly doubt that many people (there will be some) are going to switch because of one channel. I sure as hell won't and most people I know are the same way.

Honestly, I think NFL Network is going to be the first to weaken. How many millions of viewers are they losing out on because of this little spat? 13 million on TWC and 20+ million on other assorted cable networks throughout the country? Could be more, I don't know the specifics.

Yep. Due to this little spat the consumer has to suffer. sucks... They'll eventually meet in the middle because cable companies are losing revenue on this too.

If the NFLN doesn't do something about Bryant Gumbel in the booth you won't have to worry about missing the games. He is atrocious to put it kindly.

I hear you, can't find it either.

I can not manually input the channel number.
