That blows. The final game of the season and potentially a 16-0 game. Really is a damn shame.

The situation here in SE NH is unclear. Comcast here carries all the Boston TV stations including the one allowed to broadcast the game locally, but will the NFL force Comcast to carry a different 'local' channel that evening to customers outside the OTA range? It's unclear.

NFL network is offered in RI cable packages.

But i think that the NFLN will strike a one time deal with all cable providers, to show this game if we beat Miami anyway.

It would be a good free promo for the network. A win/win.

Up in here in Maine, we don't even have the choice of getting the NFL Network.

You obviously have not been following along...

The Colts fans got screwed.

The governor of Wisc couldn't get a special deal to see the Packers take on Cowboys.

Neither of those games had any historical impact. trust me. All cable providers will be carrying this game. Even if it's on a one time only basis.

there is toomuch $$ to be made by everyone involved.
