Tonight marks the most-hyped NFC match up of the year, when the Packers take on the Cowboys. I haven't been this excited for a football game in a long time. Thankfully I decided to go with
DirectTV in order to get the NFL Network, but not everyone is fortunate enough to receive this programming.
I will say, however, I am sick and tired of all the people who whine about not getting this game because of the NFL and its new network. If you want the game, get satellite. If you don't want satellite, don't cry about it.
DirectTV is not much more expensive than cable and it offers quite a few more HD channels than any cable company, so why not make the change anyway. What the NFL is doing is not much different than what ESPN has done over the years.
ESPN took over one NFL game per week and the only way you can get that game is to have cable. NFL Network took over one game a week (for only part of the year) and you can only get it with Dish or select cable companies. Same thing. Deal with it.
