Couldn't we just have an out of town Bills fan with Direct TV buy one and use it?

Umm...yeah probably! The cool thing is it has a $250 price tag, but no monthly fees! Well worth it if you're a Bills fan in Roch or Buffalo and want to watch the games.

Well, we could get MM to use it at his house. We could get a bunch of zoners to all chip in and buy it. And since it is probably made in China, MM would have no problem working on it if it breaks.

Ah, but it says only one PC can access it at one time... therein lies the weakness.

Someone will modify a chip or something...

I would gladly do it... have the broadband... no DirecTV, though :-(

Things like that make me happy I live in South Florida. I never get blacked out. Hell even when the Dolphins play them, since it is such a big rivalry, it is always a sellout.

Me too - one good thing about living in Jersey - I don't remember ever seeing a Jets game (or Giants for that matter) blacked out.. Their season ticket list is like 20 years long.. lol.
