Guffalo Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 Tonight at 7:00 http://www.nfl.com/nflnetwork/networkschedule The only problem I have is that the Sunday Ticket doesnt kick in till first week of the season, so I don't get NFL Network until then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffFromBuffalo Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 The only problem I have is that the Sunday Ticket doesnt kick in till first week of the season, so I don't get NFL Network until then My brother in law (in San Antonio) is a Bears fan and is in the same boat. I have Direct TV, so get the NFL Network (but don't have the NFL Package) so I will see the game. Very odd. For the regular season, lucky for me there is a Bills Backers bar close to me here in Denver. Seems pretty strange scheduling though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have anything besides Sunday Ticket. They usually enable NFL Network in the Preseason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fezmid Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 The only problem I have is that the Sunday Ticket doesnt kick in till first week of the season, so I don't get NFL Network until then If you have Sunday Ticket, I suggest tuning to channel 212... That's NFL Network. It's different than Sunday Ticket... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GOBILLS78 Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 I recently moved to an area with Time Warner (no NFL Network) and I can't get DirectTV because of the damn trees surrounding my neighborhood, so I'm screwed. I'm hoping on a fair performance assessment from TSW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IF you have DTV, you have the NFL Network and the game will be on. Channel 212. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, I just switched yesterday based on the threads previously posted (and re-posted by Scooby since he is so special) first I checked channel 212 since I just got a new receiver (I've had the original sinve 1997 or so). Then I called direct TV in nuclear mode suggesting that as a loyal customer I was outraged that I wasn't receiving NFL Network. After being put on perma-hold while waiting for the supervisor, I was disconnected. I called in again and when I got the supervisor he gave me the spiel about retention of customers yada yada, Long story short, NFL Network is not loaded for Sunday ticket customers until the beginning of the season. I have basic programming since I only use DTV for the ticket. If you have a higher choice, you may have NFL Network within the package. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
***PetrinoInAlbany*** Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 Hey, question for anyone who may see this and know the answer ... I gave the Bears tickets away to a friend of mine whose nephew plays for Chicago. Also, I recently got high-speed internet. Any on-line options available to view or listen if you're 400 miles from B-Lo? (I'm not a techno-freak, and I attend almost every home game, so believe it or not I have no idea. Help!)

Wouldn't the NFL want pretty much every set of football-jersey-buying eyes watching the NFL network in August? I can see them wanting a "premium" network during the season, but during the preseason its just going to get more people thinking about football, buying tickets and merchandise, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NFL Network has absolutely ZERO to do with the NFL package OR what reciever you have. ZERO. There is only one package DTV offers that doesn't have the NFL Network. And if you have that one (Family package), pony up the exztra couple of bucks and get to a package that has it. It has nothing to do with getting Sunday Ticket or what receiver you have.
