The game is on AFN as well. Good year for the skins means more games I can watch! Something like 5 out of 7 weeks so far they've been scheduled to be on. If Philly and Washington win this week I guarantee the next game will be on too.

GEEE.... You are getting more games in Japan than I get in Iowa. Lucky you.

Oh and thanks for your service to our country.

And guess who has to go away for the week Sunday evening? Having to set off no later than 4PM?

Hi guys,

i think im gonna cry with joy. Sky TV shows two nfl games every Sunday and i honestly cant remember the last time they showed the Skins in a divisional game on tv. O the Joy!!! Plus, the Eagles game is on Channel FIVE the following week!!!

Hooray!

Way to go bro! Enjoy. I remember how exited I was as a young guy in Alaska when the games went from a two-week taped delay to live broadcast.

Yep, nice to finally get a Sunday live game and nice for it to be a crucial one as well.

Fot those British fans who remember the times before we got any live Sunday action.......read this to stoke up some memories.

Great read, Chrisbob... I've often wondered how the NFL and the Redskins have aquired British fans. (Did you write it?)

The only experiences I've ever had with most Europeans, when discussing American football, have been ones of total bewilderment on the part of the European.

me: Do you like Football?

Euro: Of course, what European doesn't?

me: No, I mean 'American' football...

Euro: Oh, THAT. :doh: It's bloody garbage. 3 seconds of action followed by 5 minutes of standing around in the huddle. And what's with the helmet and pads? Real men play Rugby. Bloody dreadful, it is.

me: Sorry I asked... :)

Seriously, I think it's great that the sport is taking a foothold over there....

Yes, i did.............thanks.

I think the problem for people over here is that they try and compare it to rugby. The argument that it takes too long is stupid considering how popular test cricket is here (up to 5 days!!)

Unfortunately i dont have the lavish luxuries of sky tv, and Channel 5 is just the pits for the reception.

Im gonna have to make do with continuing my affair with the autoupdate on nfl.com for this week and watch the game later on, on disk.
