Re: NFL to stream NBC games in real time

IMO, this would be a good solution to the NFL Network problem. Instead of forcing lots of fans to miss the game if they don't live in the home market, stream it live on the internet so fans can catch it and the quality of the NFL N presentation.

Re: NFL to stream NBC games in real time

Not a big deal IMO. Thats the sunday night game and that is on Nationwide. Id like to see them put something together to play the 1 and 4 pm games via the net. That way im not forced to watch steelers and eagles games.

Re: NFL to stream NBC games in real time

Having NFLN is nice and the Sunday ticket deal I have with DirecTV works cool but I think it's great that they're taking the initiative to broadcast it for all to see.

Very cool.

On another note.....

Re: NFL to stream NBC games in real time

I wish they did this last year. If some of you rememberI had NFL Network during the Bears-Skins game and all year they advertised how the road to the playoffs begins "here on NFL Network." Anyway the day of the game came got the pregame show and everything then all of a sudden an NFL Films documentary about High School Football in a small town comes on. Needless to say I was pissed especially since I had gotten every other game that NFL Network advertised.

Re: NFL to stream NBC games in real time

Great move for both the NFL and NBC Sports. It gives them an extra revenue stream, it allows them to test the idea for a possible bigger play, it serves the fan who might have only tv at his place and he has to let his fiancee watch Platinum Weddings on TLC because she let him hog the tv all Sunday during the day watching all the other games that were on and she doesn't realize that there's still Sunday night and Monday night football and that her fiance is in the sports business and really shouldn't go into work the next morning without having seen as many games possible...and it's great if they offer it on-demand for next day viewing.

Come on now. We all know that the Platinum Weddings show that so horribly conflicts with Sunday Night Football is on We.

SS was trying very hard to avoid writing in the first person, because it was his own personal experience shared. There is way too much detail not to be!

Re: NFL to stream NBC games in real time

Definitely an awesome concept to stream the games in real time, and something I hope gets picked up quickly.

And SS - I have 2 words for you. Picture-in-picture.

Sounds like you need a plasma TV, NFL Sunday Ticket, and a new pimped-out Redskins room -- for work, of course. Expense it!

Re: NFL to stream NBC games in real time

Ok last year some one posted a web site with a colored map of the US that told you what games were being shown in which markets.

Does anyone remeber that link? I tried searching to no avil.
