Has had an entire hour of pre-game stuff and I assume they’ll have the game.

That’s where I’ll be watching for as long as they have this boring as balls game on NFLN.

Man

I haven’t commented on here in forever. It’s like I’ve awoken from a 7 month nap. I’ve still been reading though. Better than even Grizz.

It’s good to be back and we’re now about 12 minutes away from Cowboys football. My God.

The Ticket blacked out

when I try to listen online it says it is blacked out and isn’t being broadcast online.

My TV coverage is the “Charger Preseason Network” so unless I can get some other audio source I guess I’ll just have to listen to the game with Chargers’ announcers…

Blackout!

NFL Network is blacked out in my area!

I have to watch the game on local TV… and whoever is running the local channel is…

Lets just say this… the game is in mono. Not only do I have to suffer through non-HD tv, I also have to listen to the whole game out of the right channel…

Yeah but...

We may have beat the Giants if:
1. Crayton catches a ball

2. TR doesn’t throw an interception in the end zone late in the game.

Screw an if…
