Time Warner Cable and NFL agree to a deal
Not sure if TWC is prominent in the KC area but I thought I'd post this anyway.

Cool... don't really blame TWC for not being part of the NFL's money grab until they started airing games each week, but they have a pretty good lineup this season and it'll be nice not to rely on flaky internet streams.

Still think they should of held out until Sunday ticket also became available. Is it in the sports tier or normal tier.
It is mindboggeling, nfl: fans want/need this. Twc: they want Sunday ticket too. No, you pay us a shit ton of money for the crap channel that is only worth a damn 17weeks a year, but don't charge your customers for it on a higher tier. Twc: what about Sunday ticket? Nfl: we will let you know when the contract is up, but no. Nfl would make 10x what they do now with allowing that. |

Redzone is in the sports tier. I'm hoping for some free offer too. I heard from a friend that fios had free redzone for the first year. I have a buddy who works for twc so I'll probably find out all the details soon. |

I completely glossed over the Red Zone channel... that's awesome. Looks like it would be a great way to keep up with the games as long as there aren't an insane number of commercials.

I love the Red Zone channel. It is the only thing DISH has that DIRECTV doesn't. I really miss having that now that my Sunday Ticket free trial is over.

Im not crazy about red zone. I thought it would be great to have on a 2nd TV, but it ends up being a few seconds faster than the Chiefs game, so its annoying when they switch over to that - you see it out of the corner of your eye before you experience it with sound.

I already have the sports tier for hockey... it includes 3 FSNs, NHLN, MLBN, NBA TV, CBS Sports, NBC Sports (aka Versus), Yes, NESN, ESPN Classic, ESPNU, Big 10 Network... and a few others (a few of those like ESPNU might be standard ).

How much does the sports tier add to your cable bill per month?

$5/month... well worth it for CFB and hockey. Last year I got a lot of WCHA games on the extra Fox Sports channels (mostly North Dakota and Minnesota) plus whatever was on CBS/NBC Sports.
