Comcast advertises an NFL channel but it sounds like it only shows highlights of all the games; anyone have experience with this deal? Thanks
Why spend the money when you can go to Beef O'Bradys for the remaining weeks of the season? The NFL Channel is free on Comcast if you have the digital package. They do broadcast several live games during the year. But it is not a big deal. If you are obsessed with a particular team you can find a local place instead of spending big bucks for the NFL/MLB tickets.

I love the NY Giants but they ain't Worth the price for the few games I do not get on regular TV or via the internet feed.

Just another way Dish/DirectTV sucks you in.
