said by BF69:said by Jwobot:It is really stupid that the NFL is making its fans suffer by asking the cable companies to pay big $$$ for their 8 football games on the NFL Network.
A) 70 cetns is hardly BIG money. ESPN gets nearly $3.50 per sub. I hardly think that re-runs of The World Series of Poker is worth $3.50 a month but that's me.
B) 8 games now more in the future if cable continues to be stupid. Remember 2 years go there were ZERO games on NFL network. How about in next year they expand to 18 games a year. Would that make you happy? Thought not.
Oh if you think that's all NFL network has is 8 games then you're not really an NFL fan anyways. The NFL is year round.
The regular season is a seventeen-week schedule during which each team has one bye week and plays sixteen games. This schedule includes six games against a team's divisional rivals, as well as several inter-division and inter-conference games. The season currently starts on the Thursday night in the first full week of September and runs weekly to late December.
