Oh baby, I need to get DTV!

This will be interesting.

I'd like more info on programming- will they replay the previous week's game? If the Bills are in a good game, and there's 3 other fantastic finishes elsewhere on the diaL, I'd love to see them later- or get a shot at taping the Bills game if I'm travelling to the game itself.

BTW- welcome back, Superbills! Long time no see!

[superbills]

Thanks D. Summer's a busy time at the grind. I'll get my priorities straightened out, though :) :hamrhed:

I might have to get DirectTv just for this. I would probably never want to go to work during the football season anymore though.

I was already thinking of getting a dish...since Time Warner screwed us over with making Empire a channel you have to pay through the nose to get. Here's another incentive.

Exactly what I was thinking- I'd like to watch some other games in full later b/c I miss a lot when I'm sitting in the Stadium watching the Bills live.

Did you guys ever watch Monday QB on ESPN News. From 12-4 every Monday they talk about football the whole time. It's a great show, makes me wish I didn't work on Monday's.

I'm kind of disapointed that they aren't going live for opening day. It should be a great addition though. DTV already has the NBA and college channels which are pretty cool.

I watched one of those monday ESPN shows last season I think it was on ESPN2 and Dennis Green was one of the hosts. There was a lot of analysis and they televised a great many of the teams monday press conferences live. I thought it was an excellent production and I have no idea why Dennis Green isn't coaching in Miami.

Yeah i watch it all the time. Last spring semester at college i got out of class at 1pm but usually she let us out early like 12:45ish, so i always watched from 1-4pm.

That was my favorite NFL show of the week, even though it wasn't truly a show. They had interviews with experts like John Claytoin, Len Pasquarelli and Chris Mortensen on topics concering the NFL, live press conferences from head coaches. Also they have all the stats, highlights and injury reports.

Plus, the hosts are good too. Dennis Green, Eric Allen and some ESPN guy i forget who, but they did a good job.

I knew knew about that show. I'm gonna have to check it out on Monday.
