How about a cable company that has the NFL Network, but is not allowed to broadcast the football games?!! Yes very much true here.

How can that be? You mean you can get the NFL Network, but they won't show the game?

I have Comcast, and pay for the NFL Network. I would be more than willing to give it up, though, in exchange for HRTV...

Yes. I'm trying to figure out, how does the fee from the NFL Network rise when a football game is being shown than any other time that they are broadcasting.

I'll give you a number to call and you can listen to the message.

I'm wondering if this is going to happen with the 2 college bowl that the NFL Network has this year. The Insight bowl most definitely might have local interest around here. Wouldn't this be infringement upon the NFL and NCAA

IMO, they are in the worst division in the worst conference in football. They don't have that tough a schedule if you look at it. No Pitts, NE or Indy. They squeeked by a good number of teams. (Although that can't be a detraction. Good teams win close games.)
Don't get me wrong, they are a good team. A mediocre team. This very well could be their last loss of the regular season. That's not saying much given their remaining games. I guess I'm just waiting for Favre to implode and throw his ill advised INT's.
They have very solid WR corps. Solid TE given that they stay with Lee.

Plus, they beat my Eagles (without a competent Punt returner) and Brett Favre's wife is super hot. Other than that, I have no reason not to like them. If they keep the win column going in that direction, no way Mike McCarthy doesn't get Coach of the Year.

Good Luck tonight,+thank Andy Reid for Al Harris' bump coverage, lol...

Worst than the AFC EAST (Sure NE is#1, but the rest of the division), AFC West, NFC South and NFC West?

I remember you're an Eagle guy and I don't blame you for thinking you gave one away at Lambeau...and yes, agreed on Reid and Harris point

Not worth splitting hairs on good vs mediocre...guess the mediocre caught me off guard because I honestly don't see them that way. With the teams Minn, Chicago and Detroit have all beat, I think the division is a lot more respectable than the AFC East less NE and the AFC WEst and NFC WEst top to bottom.

Yea, I guess I was wrong in splitting hairs with the NFC. The whole thing stinks, save certain games. Each AFC East team does have to play the Pats twice a year. The Jets aren't as bad as their record indicates. The fins, who don't deserve capitalization, lose alot of close ones. The Bills have given teh Cowboy's their biggest scare for that second loss. Closer than either of our teams will get.

I, as always, have worded it wrong. They are a good team, just not a great team that deserves the buzz week in week out.
The fan in me wants you to win by a ton. The realist in me says The TO and RoMO show keeps clicking.

I hope everyone keeps picking the Cowboys, because that only means the packers will destroy them. Romo has been great at times, but he has also been terrible at times. As long as Woodson can play and they limit Witten I believe the packers will win this one. I for one can't wait to see TO bitching at Romo on the sidelines, because Al Harris is all over him and Romo can't get him the ball. Should be fun...

TO is gonna manhandle that long haired b*tch Al Harris. When Owens was part of my beloved 49ers he broke Green Bays heart, how sweet it was to be a little kid who loved the 49ers watching that game, I'm sure you Packer fans remember that. TO is gonna break the hearts of all you Packer fans once again.

Not meaning to burst your bubble, but, HOw in he world does everyone picking the Cowboys have to do with the Packers destroying them???

SO this means that 1-5 or 2-5 shots in horse racing are going to lose because everyone picks them??

The Boys are the favorites for a reason, they are the most logical winners.

All i can say, now that I have the first round bye in my fasntasy football wrapped up, is let's go Donald Lee. Show me your worthy of starting over Gates next week.

Hard to say that it is worse than the NFC or AFC West

Yea, I should have rescinded that statement after I thought about it for a while. I can't remember, although I'm fairly young, when the NFC was so bunched up with such average teams. In year's past, at least 3 or 4 teams stuck out like sore thumbs. Not at all this year.
