Correct, that is the best anyone can do until this current pricing fails or is proved successful. Good luck and let us know what happens so others can try it too.

A 2-mile trip to a bar to watch it there is way less expensive.

D* has the Sunday Ticket.
I have D*
I pay for the Ticket. I face facts. The NFLST is THE reason I am with D*. Plain and simple.
And yes, its a bargain IMO and I split season tix to the Lions (I need therapy). The ability to chill in my own home with games and brews and snacks and a pot roast in the oven on a fall Sunday.
Pure bliss.
I believe I have a letter sent during last season good for $49 off this year's SuperFan.

FlyingJ said:I dont get it Charper...my HD Footbal games for the most part looked great did yours? Oh and you cheap seat scenario...must have been a few years because that is way more than cheap. My business was that I have use to have stores inside a couple of stadiums, Veterans in Philly, The Jake in Cleveland, America West Arena. In CBUS now so no pro teams to get tix for except the BlueJackets, but ummm err that is hockey. So my point is, to watch my beloved Eagels with a family of 5 and Grampa which makes 6 on my 106 inch HD projector, frankly I would pay more if they asked, but I hope they dont.

Daz said:My problem with ST is that it will either remain at the same price or go up but the quality of product has suffered. Two points:
1. More games are moving to national telecasts. There is now a 3rd game on Thanksgiving (1 less on ST that Sunday) and an extra game on Monday night in the first week (1 less on ST). The rest of the schedule hasn't been released but you can count on an expanded list of Thursday games on NFL Network and late Saturdays with 3 games instead of 2.
2. The quality of the games on ST will decline. NBC and the NFL are implementing a flexible schedule to move games around to get the best match up on the national Sunday night game. This all but guarantees that in the last 7 weeks of the season, ST will almost never air the big game that week.

I'm all for the NFL putting it's best product on the biggest stage but cut the cost of ST by $10-20.

Oh and by the way how did you know i have numb nuts? it's a medical condition.
