Comcast has seen fit to give us the NFL Network on cable’s digital tier. It’s somewhere in the 160s or 170s – who can be sure?
What exactly will they do to fill February through July?
Yesterday, with the Eagles game not being shown in Connecticut, I tuned in hoping to find some post-game highlights. You’d think they’ve got the best access.
I stayed for a while, but never saw the Eagle’s clips. Helaine noted the in-studio coverage wasn’t very exciting, though that wasn’t my problem.
I can’t say I’ve ever seen a channel with this many commercials! It was comparable to MTV or the second half of a movie on TBS¹.
I didn’t sit there with a stopwatch, so maybe I’m wrong, but that certainly was my perception. And it’s not like I’m anti-commercial. Commercials pay my salary.
We left and headed to something more established.
¹ – Why is the first movie segment 20 minutes long and the last few around 90 seconds. It’s a rhetorical question – I do know the answer.
Geoff,
Be a man and get DirecTV. Get away from the cable monopoly. Get the Sunday Ticket and you can see your Eagles every Sunday.
have you tried nfl on-demand? They re-cap each game mixed down to 5 to 10 minutes…or they used to, anyway
