I just found out today that I might not be able to get it starting on May 1st. I wonder how many people are actually going to be able to see it now?

I always got the sense that most people didn't like the commentators at the NFL network.

That sucks. I hope I don't lose it.

I'm glad I don't have Comcast.

The only time I watch it is for the Thursday Night Games towards the end of the season. I really don't like Deion Sanders in the studio. Most of the other guys are fine, but he really drives me nuts.

The Top 10 shows are fun to watch, but some of the studio shows are just to long. Livewire is pretty funny too sometimes.

The NFL Network is a great network. Most people didn't like Bryant Gumbel but he was canned last year. I don't think the announcers are any better or worst than any others. I'm not wild about ESPN's announcers at all. lol

Got that Disturbing message on my cable box when I woke up. F*CK Comcast. Directv remains CABLE KING and Comcast does sh*t like this and don't understand why.

Late in '07, my brother got digital just so he could get NFL Network. Now I don't know what will happen next.:eek: :eek2:

NFL Network done on Comcast..

Various readers previously have informed us that Comcast has been advising its customers that NFL Network might disappear from the Philly-based cable system as of May 1.

The NFL has responded by sending out an e-mail to viewers that makes the separation sound much more like a done deal.

The e-mail contains a message that reads in large letters and all caps: “On May 1, NFL Network will no longer be available to Comcast customers.”

A link contained in the message leads to another message, which suggests that the divorce arises from Comcast’s insistence on keeping NFLN at a digital tier requiring additional payment.

Last week, it appeared that the future availability of the Red Zone Channel to cable companies like Comcast could help break the ice toward placement of NFLN on the basic packages offered by Comcast and other cable companies. In this specific case, however, it appears that the two sides are too close to their deadline for working out a new deal to continue to do business in the short term.

Also, with the Red Zone Channel possibly not available to cable companies until 2011, it’s not the kind of carrot that will trigger an immediate response.

The disappearance of NFLN from Comcast will erase the league-owned network from roughly two million homes. Though the message from NFL Network identifies other ways to get the channel, we suggest an all-out I-want-my-MTV-style assault by customers on Comcast and the cable companies that don’t currently carry the network.

Are we saying that simply because yours truly is scheduled to appear on NFLN tomorrow night? Well, it doesn’t hurt. But we’d like to think we’d feel that way even if we didn’t have a vested interest in having current and (and possibly future, if yours truly doesn’t lay an egg tomorrow night) NFLN
appearances available to as many potential PFT readers as possible.

Comcast can suck a fat one

Comcast can suck a fat one
Yea I know. They argue that they don't want to pass the cost of the NFLN to their subscribers yet how many crap channels do they force us to have and they charge us for them? They can take TVL off mine if they want and leave NFLN alone.
