(say if I didn't have the NFL network) I'd like to know this too. - Since Adelphia doesn't carry NFL network (yet has multiple golf and Nascar channels) - does this mean I can't see the game?

skinfan2k Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 im not sure.. when games used to be on espn, upn carried the games, but i believe upn is a subset of abc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimster Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 im not sure.. when games used to be on espn, upn carried the games, but i believe upn is a subset of abc. in the DC area when Redskins games are on ESPN, they air them on channel 7 - ABC affilaite. - Since this is the first year of televising games on NFL net, who knows. I just hope this isn't some cute way to make people get NFL network, just like if you wanna see MNF now you have to have at least basic cable. .

TheNewU Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 in the schedules thread, someone said they heard that the games on NFL network will also be carried locally, take it for what it;s worth, but if you think about it, the networks have contracts with NFL so they are not really competing or anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ComebackKing Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 Yes I have confirmed reports that any local areas get the games on local TV. They do it even when the skins played on ESPN last season the game was also on UPN or whatever. This is a little outdated but still true: 8 PRIME TIME GAMES ON NFL NETWORK; The games will also be shown by local broadcasters in the markets where they are being played. http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news?slug=nflnetworkgames&prov=st&type=lgns Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe channel 7 will get this one too, but who knows. :whoknows: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubba9497 Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 I'd like to know this too. - Since Adelphia doesn't carry NFL network (yet has multiple golf and Nascar channels) - does this mean I can't see the game? I love my D-TV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gamebreaker Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 Great. I was a little bit worried about that. It wouldn't be smart business if the NFL cut out the local television stations of a game. Also, by broadcasting high profile/overhyped games on NFL Network. The football fans who have NFL network can still see TO get pummeled by the Eagles defense while living in California, for example.

RichmondSkinsFan Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 Glad to hear the Skin's game will be televised locally but I still wish that the NFL Network was available to everyone, everywhere (assuming they are willing to pay for it)! I think that if they are going to start airing more and more games on the network then this channel should not be exclusive to only certain people. I have Adelphia cable and they don't offer the NFL Network! :mad: And I want it!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bricucci Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 Nfl network is the best channel on television. I have cable and direct tv. I pay 55 bucks for basic direct tv for 3 things. NFL network, Sunday ticket and the Nationals games on MASN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewCliche21 Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 i'm just pissed it wont be in HD if it is on NFL network. Since you're in VA I'm pretty sure that you won't have a problem if you get an HD local station. I know if you have Comcast, at least in the Columbia, MD area (Shouldn't be too different from down there), then you can get local channels in HD around the 210's in terms of channel numbers.

IBleedBurgundy&Gold1369225669 Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 Adelphia offers NFL Network with it's HD package. I just moved to pA and Adelphia has the NFL network on the digital cable package. Do you know if you can buy the NFL package for it like Direct TV? If so I have to get it.
