We have all this crap on the sports tier, which I pay extra for, and no NFL network in sight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buddyboy Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 I just called my local provider and was told hey have had many calls requesting that Time Warner make the NFL Network available. I was told they have no current expected date for when or if this network will be offered, but are currently in negoiations. I don't know if this is the standard blow off answer or not. I do not want to miss any NFL games that may be available through a different service. I expect they will eventually offer it, but I also think it's going to be at an additional cost, or as part of a higher tiered sevice package., mo money, mo money, mo money.

Not to bad in my opinion, and more than half of those "older" complaints dealt with technology that is no longer used by Direct TV. There is a reason DirecTv has the highest customer rating in the industry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arkady Renko Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 To be honest having the NFL Network isn't what it's cracked up to be. Outside of the games they will be showing this season and the periodic old games that I might have some interest in seeing, there's not much to it.

Not just with the Bills, cause this site goes a long way toward keeping me up to date with them, but with the other teams, too. I just felt more plugged in to the season in general, which I really liked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Constant reruns of bad programming, especially during the offseason. And the "In Their Own Words" series NEVER, I repeat NEVER, features anyone from the Bills.
