Cool NFL network rant.

My brother is in town for turkey day, he's from denver CO.
We can't watch the Bronco's play tonight,unless we go out to some bar.
I have Time warner that was bought out by comcast.
The NFL network and time warner are in a nasty fight over pricing.
http://www.multichannel.com/article/CA6357446.html
I called comcast and they can't offer it in this area because of the dispute.
I thought about going to dish network but my internet would skyrocket if I go with a cable internet but no cable TV.
I cant bring myself to downgrade to DSL.
When comcast does offer the network it will be part of a sport's package to the tune of $ 6.57 a month.
Im not buying it I have had it with the NFL.

Well, don't worry, your not missing much. Gumble and Collinsworth are not good at all, and they have the stat bar so low across the top of the picture that is actually intrusive into the game action. It needs to be flush to the top or bottom.

Watching the Broncos..? What?

The Chiefs are playing some team tonight... I can't put my finger on it, cause they're stomping them into the ground. Can't really tell who they are if they're underground.

You're lucky it's halftime and you're not interrupting my boys.

10 to 3 is a stomp ?
I know a a$$ kickin when I see it "viking fan here" I wouldnt call 10 to 3 it.
Now when my purple team played New England there was a stomping.
KC does have some of the best fans and a great place to play.

Was it me or could Collinsworth or Gumble remove their heads from certain places? Outside of those two, the NFL Network has great coverage.

Go Chiefs!

Go Chiefs!
Collinsworth is one of the worst Chiefs haters. Some of these guys just hate the Chiefs cause they're not an east coast and/or an NFC team. It'll get under a guy's skin. I mean, during the game, he was talking about LeDanian Tomlinson more than Larry Johnson, and Johnson is THE premier tailback in the NFL.

Sorry for the rant.

Yeah, I turned the TV on mute and listened to Len Dawson and Mitch Holtis on 101 the FOX

The Cowboys, who removed the word "undefeated" from the Colts last week, had an easy time with the Bucs 38-10 so I was able to stuff my face without getting too excited.

Even though we may not like it the NFL has a right to do this, that's why we live in the U.S.A. capitalism at it's best! Is there another team out there other than the Steelers? PS I know we suck this year.

As a die hard Chiefs fan, I was happy to see them play on Thanksgiving. I was even happier to see them win. I wasn't too impressed with the coverage though. I do like the idea of Thursday night football though. Just my .02 worth.

Im a Raider fan living in California and I cant even watch a game. After the first two games they stopped broadcasting the Raiders. So what if they suck I still want to watch them. Im no fair wheather fan, I was a Raider fan in the Jay Shradder day. Those were so bad times.

Is that because of the black out rule,they dont sell out home game's ?
Do you get to see road games ?
Last time I saw Al Davis he looked like he had one foot in the grave.
I never thought I would feel sorry for Randy Moss but I do.
God the Viking's could use him right now.
