DirecTV is kicking in the $99 Superfan for free for most subscribers if you ask for it....

Who cares if they are not broadcasting local games in your area. Just lie to your receiver!!! Go into the setup on your receiver, enter a different zip code from the one you are in, and you should be able to watch anything you want.

Does this really work, I'm curious.

This is just the beginning folks. I suspect in the future the NFL will try to have all games on a pay per view bases. That will be the day that I stop following football forever. Come on!! Doesn't the NFL make enough money with the ridiculous tickets prices, stadium parking fees, and nfl merchandise?!! The reputation of the NFL is being damaged everyday and they have the nerve to ask the fan to put more money out of their pockets.

If the NFL really does try to have all games on a pay-per-view, maybe this stupid thing Americans refer to as "football" can just wither and die. That would be great and maybe some real football could be popularized in the states.

The NFL has very complex TV contracts and the networks are paying billions of dollars to keep NFL games on TV and essentially off the Internet. When the networks find an Internet business model to match TV ad revenues you will see NFL games online at a much lower cost but this isn’t going to happen until 2010 when the Direct TV deal runs out. Other leagues that can't get the same TV dollars are more likely to look at the Internet at this point.

Eric, your post has me rethinking my stance as a pro lifer.

Hey Eric
If American football died what kind of football would we play? Certainly you dont mean something as tragically boring as soccer aka futbol, on second thought, perhaps americans would be better off getting proper rest through naps that will be taken while that boring crap is on, maybe you are right.

Many countries in Europe have major problems dealing with "Football Hooliganism" - where fans fight, riot and generally cause mahem. Interestingly, this problem is almost non-existant at other sports - even very high contact sports such as Rugby. Could it be that a game where two teams battle it out to a 1 all draw, or a 2-1 win just isn't exciting enough? Maybe they should eliminate the goalie and make the game high scoring to add interest. American football may not be the most interesting ball sport either, but it holds enough interest that the fans watch the game rather than taking time out to try to kill each other. It's probably even interesting enough that some people will actually choose to pay these exorbitant NFL streaming charges.
