And what would you expect to hear about DirecTV in a Dish retailer chat?
Good question.
Just wondering, since DirecTV is so secretive about everything. I wouldn't expect them to carry this as it would compete against their subscription based NFL Sunday Ticket & Redzone, but I'm still holding out hope....
Good question.
They should. If not, people only interested in the Red Zone might opt to save money. If DirecTV lacks it as a separate option, they will have nowhere to go but Dish or Comcast. If they offer it, more will be apt stick with DirecTV.
Of course, I wouldn't expect our Browns to be frequently featured on the Red Zone channel. Well, maybe we will see them get score on, but not score.
So we got Red Zone on the Multi Sports Sept 13. hmmm home many people will actually get the Multi Sports pack?

I already signed up thought I would use the time between now and sept. 13 to see what is and isnt blacked out for me on the rsn's.

A lot of providers do this. Direct has a part-time game only MLBNet Alternative Channel as well as one for NESN as well, in both SD and HD. It does not take up any more bandwidth because they simply turn off one of the PPV channels the few hours they need to turn on the alternative or part-time channel.
Dish can do the same. Instead of wasting bandwidth on another channel, they just need to temperately switch a PPV channel to the Red Zone channel for the few hours, one day a week it is needed. They will probably have more viewers than they would for that particular PPV channel anyway.
Obviously I wish there wasn't an additional charge, but I think $24 for the NFL season is well worth it. I'm pumped that Dish is actually on the ball for a change when it comes to Sports
Yeah, I have the multi-sport package anyway, so this is a bonus for me! It beats having to pay the 12 or 13 dollars that Directv sells their multi-sport package for!
Good job Dish Network on getting us this channel!! I will have no qualms whatsoever with upgrading to the sports package for a few months. Thankyou Dish! 
I would gladly pay twice as much for the sports pack if I could watch the end of many MLB games in HD. Have to settle watching the final innings in SD as it is now.
where I am I had to add the multi sports package to get Big Ten Network so having already subscribed to the package glad to see NFL Red Zone is on its way!
OMG thank you Jesus! I get the Multi Sports during football season. It has the Sun Network for those not in Fl. It has Big Ten HD, an awesome channel that shows all kind of Big Ten Sports in HD, and what is cool is that it has the school commercials which most are informative and interesting. It has the Madison Sq Gardens channel. And it has not only Fox regionals but weirdly, it has some of the Comcast regionals. There is also a soccer channel. Most of the regionals have HD feed, but dont always have programming. And for some strange reason, I am only getting charged $4.25 for it.
I was thinking of getting Comcast on one of my TVs for this, 5.99 is a bargain. Do you realize what "this" is? Its LIVE feeds of teams in the Red Zone, one after another, and if no one is in the Red Zone, they switch to a game where the ball is moving. Whoever thought of this needs a Nobel Prize.
Yes! Just got an update on that today. Starting Sept 13, it will be part of the multi-sports pack for 5.99/month on channel 155!
