I was under the impression from that thread that people were just pissed they had to pay 5 bucks a month extra to get the channel. I am pissed it isnt even an option. If that was nationally televised it would be the highest rated show on television tonight, it is fairly criminal for comcast not to show this to us because they want to push the vs. network imo.

i'm not positive about this but i'm pretty sure 3/4 cable companies don't carry nfl network or sunday ticket b/c they didn't want to pay the nfl the price they were demanding to carry it. i know time warner (formerly comcast) down here in socal definitely doesn't.

but i also think it was something shady like the nfl demanded all this money from these cable companies to carry nfl network, and they were like eff you this is a worthless channel. like 1 or 2 companies actually signed the deal, then the nfl came out and announced they were going to be showing a bunch of games exclusively on that channel.
