I am really bored and there is nothing going on in the football world. Does anyone know anything new for the Texans? (in the past week or so) Also, I hear that the NFL network is coming to our area, is that true? If so how the hell do we get it? Just puttin some conversation out there....holla

So far no arrests from our players this offseason, and no new players so far.

No worries. Vonta Leach is still on the team.

Time-Warner got bought out by Comcast (at least in the Houston metro area.; don't know about Austin). They offer the NFL Network as part of the Sports Entertainment Pkg. That pkg is $5 extra per month. Comcast programming - and therefore the NFL Network - started broadcasting today. Its channel 113 on my box.

Time Warner and Comcast swapped regions for logistical purposes only. "We'll give you 400,000 "A" accounts paying 12 million a month in Houston if you give us the same in another city closer areas that we want to penetrate" type thing. My guess is that Comcast does not have the capacity that Time Warner does and they'll be selling out within 2 years. Time Warner is thinking that they'll get Comcast areas now - knowing that they'll also get their old areas back in a few years. I just don't see how Comcast has the revenue the support all of those accounts. It's pretty slick on Time Warners part. One thing for sure NFL Network still won't be on TW's channel lineup anytime soon. In the meantime enjoy it on Comcast.

We're going to the superbowl.
YESSSSSS!!!! Man this Battle-Red Kool-Aid is going to give me kidney failure before the eason even starts.

Anyone know how much sugar is in one serving of Battle Red Kool-Aid? I think there's going to be a surprisingly high number of new cases of diabetes in the Houston area.

I hope you're wrong about that. Comcast has been the cable vendor in the Nashville area (I got kinfolk back there) for several years now and they don't seem to be losing ground in that market.

That's hilarious!

I have NFL Network and its addicting....it tells you whats going on around the NFL, Europe, and Arena leagues....go figure. Occassionally, they will throw in a few cheer competition/auditions but its quite entertaining. Its very good to have during the off-season.

I am stuck with Suddenlink, Comcast not an option, so I called yesterday, Suddenlink is in negotiations for NFL Network - no timeframe specified.

Actually Comcast is the largest cable provider in the US, TW is second. I think Comcast will be a good thing since they tend to get better ratings overall.

They've supposedly been in negotiations since last football season but still no word on how that's going. Personally I think they're blowing smoke.
