NFL Network Can't Beat Cable Industry

Submitted by Chris Tittle, Dec 6, 2007 14:26

Both cable and NFL are the asses in this mess. The ones getting hurt are the fans. When your whole existance depends on fans happiness it is not a good idea to piss them off that goes for both. The NFL should not of put end of season games on their channel but instead put some begining season games and the cables companies had their chance before directv or dish came along to buddy up to the NFL and maybe they would of gotten the Sunday Ticket. If by some miracle of GOD the Patriots are 15-0 come December 29th and the NFL does not make a deal to simucast the Pats-Giants game with a nationwide audience potential like abc, cbs, fox, nbc, espn, or espn 2 then lookout Time Warner, Comcast, Charter, and the NFL, there will not be a hole deep enough for you to crawl in and hide from the wrath of the fans. Whether you are a Pats or NFL fan or not, everybody and their uncle wants to see if the Pats can make history. In closing I would like to tell Goodell, Jerry Jones, Charter, Comcast, Time Weiner (yes that is on purpose), and the other cable and NFL personell involved with this, We have had enough quit acting like 3 year-olds fighting over who got the bigger piece of cake.

Thank you Chris in Maine
