ESPN and NFL Network talking partnership!

[Mr. Miyagi]

NEW YORK (AP) -- The NFL Network and Walt Disney Co.'s ESPN are in talks about a partnership, a person familiar with the talks told The Associated Press.


The person requested anonymity because the negotiations are ongoing.


A deal could end a long standoff between the league and cable carriers, some of whom said the NFL was asking them to pay too much for its programming.

Whoa! That would be great for some of us who don't get NFL Network!

Hopefully the Bills get real good and mix that with this news and we can have like 24 / 7 Bills coverage / Bills overload.

I knew they would cave eventually. It made no sense for the NFL to continue to be such greedy bastards with their demands, especially when the channel is nothing special.

Plus rumor has it that they were losing money by not being on Cable.
