NFL to stream NBC games in real time

Pretty cool

NFL to stream NBC games in real time - USATODAY.com (http://www.usatoday.com/sports/football/2008-07-25-2242688322_x.htm)

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.

great.

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.:woot:

i feel you wald. im lucky, my best friend has the nfl ticket. so i rarely miss the skins. and there are plenty of sports bars around here

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.....

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.

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.

i kinda feel like there's a hidden message here, but i'm not quite sure what it is...

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