Anyone Else Hear About This?

When ESPN just isn't enough!

NFL Network, the first 24-hour, seven-day-a-week cable and satellite television network dedicated solely to the NFL, will launch at 8 p.m. ET on Election Day -- Tuesday, Nov. 4 -- with its signature show NFL Total Access, hosted by Rich Eisen. A destination for all that happens around the league, the launch will follow Week 9 of the NFL season when the playoff races are heating up.

I am actually very psyched about this. Hopefully they'll start playing certain "hot" games on Sunday's.

I saw an ad for that a few weeks ago- it's about time. Now if they could only start a channel that shows nothing but Simpsons reruns all day, it would guarantee that there's at least 2 things on worth watching.

Well, I guess I will be getting DirecTV after all :punk:

I PRAY to god they fill some of the programming with-

1) Re-runs of the games from that week during the season-

I have the dish but obviously when the Bills are on, I'd like to have seen the other games on tape delay.

2) I also drive 360 Miles to the Bills games. So seing a replay of the Bills would be sweet during the week.

3) In the Off season, give me every NFL Film ever made- every team highlight reel, game of the week- you name it!

WOO HOO!!! It's FINALLY coming back! I used to watch this a couple years ago, but it got stale after a while because they showed the same clips and shows each week. This sounds like it is going to be MUCH better than the old NFL Channel and gives me something to watch when i'm bored. :D

I just wish it started sooner!

As long as it has "inside" access granted by the NFL, it will do very well.

Yeah there was! It was channel 700 or something like that. I have no clue why they took it off the air...but it was on like 2 years ago.
