We'll have to work out a road trip sometime.  | |

I have been to that spaceship that landed inside soldier field. It was nice, but nothing to write home about. | |

Credits: 1,049,018 NFL: Cowboys | Re: Jones/Goodell take their NFL Network woes to TX legislature Oh, I know I'm missing out - not seeing my NFL team play.
I can find 10 people that prefer college football games and 10 that prefer NFL games - just a matter of preference.
For me, football is football - for the most part I don't care who or what level it is. As long as there are people laying good hits on others, good execution and a big play or to - I'm happy. | |

It would suck for those that want it and don't have the option to switching. | |

It would suck for those that want it and don't have the option to switching. Just as it suck would for those who don't want it but will have to pay for it if some law gets passed forcing the cable companies to carry NFL Network on the basic cable tier (unless the NFL could finagle the legislation so that it prevents rate hikes). |

Go to a bar or a friends house. Pretty easy solution.
