NFL Network and premium channels on Dish

[Frosty]

Someoner let me no if the Draft is on ESPN.

Found out Feb 08 that Dish Network will no longer provide NFL Network as part of its standards packages, It is now placed in one of the highest Tiered programs making it a Premiem package, Got suckered punch by Dish Network

The whole promotion by the NFL Newtork was just that a one time Promotion for Dish Viewers according to it service folks.

Isn't that exactly why all those Jerry Jones and Cowboy commercials were against TIMEWARNER... Well at least I got to see the Cowboys and Packers.... The NFL network and Dish must made some good money on from its Fans Makes me take a second look at all NFL advertising>>>>

DirecTV is way better anyway. So I'd switch unless you're in a long term contract with Dish.

Interesting, but I wouldn't bet on Dish being included in the Time Warner vs NFL Networks war. Time Warner has far more viewers (and thus commercial dollars) than Dish.

NFLnetwork is on the Top 200 package and the Top 250 package. Its the bottom teir - Top 100 package that doesn't.

Totally agree.

There's no comparison ... not just the channels, but customer service.

Dish Network is horrible, IMO.

i dont see the need to pay 250 dollars to pay for 3 games that arent on national tv for the cowboys.

cowboys are back to being a big draw, and unless u live in packer land i dont see why u wouldnt get 90% of the cowboy games. and just sopcat the other 3.

IMO directv is a waste. some people might say well they get other games too, but me personally cant evn sit thru an entire game that isnt a cowboys game to begin with, so i guess i have no need for more games.

Couldn't be more wrong. I pay the $250 every year for the NFL ticket. Why you ask:

1) I'm a long time Cowboy fan.
2) I live in Gulfport, MS which is in the New Orleans Saints TV market.
3) I HATE the Saints!
4) Brett Favre being from just around the corner when the Saints game isn't shown the Packers game is.
5) Number of Super Bowl wins by the Cowboys and I'm a long time fan, ahh...I said that already huh....

Sorry if this is a bit off topic zoners...

I have Dish Network and I have High Def with the 100 channel package.

Last night I was scrolling through the channels and noticed that channel 154 is NOT on my list anymore. I'm already paying darn near 75 bucks a month.

I called them up this afternoon and sure enough, they told me that they went up on their prices and took it off the 100 channel package and stuck it on the 200 channel package. So I don't get it anymore.

Dang gold diggers!!:bang2:

I told Dish Network they better get someone ready to come pick up their box and the sat dishes.

Whoever has the NFL network currently, could you tell me what your network is and what package you might have?? Help is appreciated!

Dish Network was your first mistake...

 

[Big Country]

thanks wilatino98

I'll definately be checking out those options.

I was thinking I might go back to cable, but I don't really want to.

The only good thing about cable is the blazing internet speed and no interruptions during rainstorms. The rest is overpriced IMHO

yep... live and learn I guess:war:

I'd like to know how you are paying 75 bucks a month for the 100 channel package? I've got 250 with the sports tier package and am only paying a little over 60 bucks a month.
