The second biggest game of the year, and most of the country can't view it. Way to go NFL.

3. I was, but I called the Cable Company and added it for like 2.99 a month
and if the Cowboys beat the Packers, I shall build a shine unto them.

4. I refuse to pay 3 bucks a month to watch 8 games, six of which
will probably suck.

5. I'll just cancel after the season
I'm pretty sure they said I could remove it at any time. It still sucks, though, I agree.

6. YES
:nuke:

Of course, the sports media is completely silent about this bullshit, as they are too busy sucking away at the NFL teat.

18. Kettle meet black ...
you need basic cable to see the Monday night game. You can see the weekend games with an old black and white and rabbit ears.

22. Lol, if it makes you feel any better, I'm a fierce supporter of
T.O. -- despite all of his haters.

He may have left the 49ers, but he did a lot of wonderful things for my team.

And for that, I'll always be very grateful.

16. Oh man
Funny I rmember about 20 years ago they had congressional hearings and with much astonishment one congressman asked Rozelle (I think it was) if he could see a day when GASP the Superbowl or any other NFL game was NOT AVAILABLE ON NETWORK TV!?!??!

I don't remember the answer but it is funny to remember how the NFL used to be seen not as a commodity but basically as a right.


Not anymore.

27. As with Monday Night Football
If you don't have cable or satellite you can't see it on regular TV.

If you have to pay to see it then there shouldn't be any commercials.

31. At least ESPN is a basic cable channel
NFL Network isn't. They're doing this to "convince" cable companies to add it to their standard pier.

Time for the heir apparent to unseat the old man.

34. It's being broadcast here, unlike most other parts of Wisconsin
One of the benefits of living in Milwaukee

That, and crack is inexpensive and plentiful...
