    Direct TV only unless you're in the relevant markets.

    God dammit. Well, I suppose as being in Boston this won't be shown anywhere.

    I fucking hate these archaic marketing laws set down back in the 50's when everyone was using goddamn rabbit ears to try and catch the game or listened on their HAM radio.

    Are these marketing decisions up at the same time as the players contract?

    What I am getting at, is the ability to watch the games I want, in their entirety (unlike Redzone where you just get the 'exciting moments') in an apartment - which of course, does not allow satellite installation.

    On the one hand, I think it would've been pretty cool if he had made to an even 300. But on the other hand, it's clearly time for him and the Vikings to move on since they are not in the playoff picture and he is not in their future interests.

    And of course the rest of the country is relegated to a Ravens/Texans game because of stupid markets stupid stupid stupid markets.

    I mean, really, what would America rather watch: this or reruns of House and Lie to Me?

    EDIT: Jaguars/Texans? What was I thinking of?

    I have a new soccer blog The Minnow Tank. Reading it psychically kicks Sepp Blatter in the bean bag.

    NFL.com is streaming the game for free according to this.

    I am a lifelong Chicago Fan. Grew up going to games at Soldier Field.

    I had said fora long time, that if I saw Favre in a bar, or alone, anywhere I would stab him to death and would never be tried because i would be tried in chicago.

    This is the first honorable thing he's ever done. Take it out at 297 rather than accepting a bullshit 'single start' to keep the streak alive.

    At least he's letting it go graciously, unlike so many other decisions.

    Not location, no.
    I was thinking more along:

    I want to see Gruden/Dungy commenting a Bucs/Colts game.

    I know it will never happen, but I can dream.

    After going 11-2 in my league, in the first round of playoffs Aaron Rodgers, Adrien Peterson, Dwayne Bowe and Brandon Loyd scored me a combined 5 points...why do the fantasy gods hate me?

    Also, Mike Tolbert needs to reevaluate how he wears his helmet.
