Cox Cable + NFL Network?

Daseal · 05-31-2007, 09:32 PM

Is Cox or Comcast the one that doesn't carry NFL Network?

70Chip · 05-31-2007, 11:25 PM

Comcast doesn't carry it. I don't know anything about Cox. Ha!

Comcast carries NFL Network. It's on Comcast Digital although I believe it's being pushed up to some higher "Sports Package" tier but they definitely carry it.

In fact, I think so does Cox on its digital tiera

hooskins · 05-31-2007, 11:52 PM

I think COX does, but it is part of an extra package.

Yeah i have comcast digital and i have it.

skinsfanthru&thru · 06-01-2007, 12:49 AM

yeah comcast has it but in a month or so r requiring subscribers to add some new sports bundle to their bill in order to watch it.

I think you are correct dmek. It's just another money ploy.

Cox on this end, but they go up every year the basic package with ESPN & COMCAST, over $50 bones a month, no extras. They are getting STUPID.

skinsfan_nn · 06-01-2007, 05:57 AM

Cox does carry.

dmek25 · 06-01-2007, 08:16 AM

Cox is the cable co., ripping off...I mean serving the greater Hampton Roads area.

The pricing continue's to jump every year at a much faster rate than average inflation, don't know how much longer we will continue to pay this kinda cash for their service.

That was the major beef the NFLN had with the cable companies. NFLN wanted it added as a basic cable channel like ESPN, while the cable companies wanted to add it to a premier sports package so they could charge extra $$ for it.

Screw cable, go with DirecTV if you can.

Matty, you're sugar coating it from the NFLN's perspective. They wanted to get on the regular list, but still wanted cable companies to pay a high price for their network. They either need to accept less subscribers and have it a pay channel or decide to cut back their prices.

I'm getting Cox cable, and I didn't see it anywhere in the signup list.

yeah you're right, I wasn't try to make the NFLN sound like the victim, I just glossed over that.

I know that in my area we had Adelphia but that recently switched to Comcast. They will also be offering NFL Network but only on that Sports Package and it says it wont be avaliable until 6/20/07.
