I couldn't agree with that stand more.
i'm also siding with the cable companies. i would be irate if they bumped me up even more to add stuff i don't want. how much programming can the NFL channel offer anyway. i love that they held their ground.

The truth is that they dont care about passing the cost on to the customer. They are taking a hardline because they are trying to buy the NFL network. Lets see what happens after they get that done.

BW'3's is packed on the East Side here already. GB is in trouble. No KGB or Charles Woodson, and AL Harris not 100 percent.

Dallas takes it.
