    I hate the NFL Network!

    I just saw an article in the paper today that said that even though Buffalo will be able to broadcast the Bills/Colts game on local TV on Sunday night, Rochester will not. Apparently the NFL considers Rochester, Toronto, Syracuse and all the surrounding areas a secondary market. So they won't be allowed to broadcast the game. Yet Buffalo and the surrounding suburbs will be allowed to broadcast the game on ABC. They are the primary market. Bob Matthews does have a point too.... Why the hell is Rochester considered a primary market when it comes to the blackout rule, yet for this, they are only a secondary market? **** YOU NFL! You greedy ****s!

    Oh and **** TIME WARNER!

    Re: I hate the NFL Network!

    I figured as much when I was having this conversation with hydro yesterday and found that my local CBS wasn't airing the game this week. I'm part of the Bills network but not in Buffalo. Now the real question, do I go somewhere to watch it or just listen?

        I get the NFL Network here in ATL. I think it is the most amateurish channel on TV.

        When they have Thrusday games I want to vommit. The coverage sucks, and it's like they have equipment fom the 70s. Just horrible.

            They put 3rd & 1 when it's really 4th & 1..they put 6-0 when the score is only 3-0. They screw up too many names, too. But I'm glad I have it so I can watch this Sunday.
            I didn't come here to fight, I hate fighting. Life is way too short to spend it on fighting! Go fight with yourself, one of you will eventually win!

                            Agreed. I have watched the Thursday games at the bars last season and laughed. It is pretty lame. Plus I have watched the channel at a hotel and I was bored. It's so much repeating and a bunch of crap. I side with Time Warner. The NFL is charging way too much for a crappy product. If they lowered the price for it, I bet TW would add it to their package.

                              Does anyone have that link for free TV? I will watch it on my computer if I have to. Or maybe Log can put it on Log TV.
