| Re: not in usa I live in Israel and all games are blocked even though Israel is not on the list of restricted countries. I have emailed the NFL, and they responded to go to real media, and when I told them that was for another service they never responded. YAhoo does not have an official way to contact them, although they do have a feedback form which has an email field, but I haven't received abything from them and it's been 4 days. In both correspondances I wrote I will cancel if they don;t resolve this, but they do have a no cancellation policy.However none of the games work. they all say I am out of area but Israel is not listed as restricted at all, and had it been on the list I wouldn;t have signed up. Thank god, if all doesn't work out my credit card company will reverse the charges as they are very good about this kind of thing but still this is rediculous. | |

| said by pnh102 : T.O. is Overrated! No, he's not. He's the best receiver in football right now. You just have to realize the baggage he'll bring with him. The best way to deal with TO is to only sign him to a one year deal every year. That way he can't claim he's underpaid and you can cut him with minimal fuss when he inevitably gets out of line. -- What's certain about Darwinism is that it would take less time for (1) a single-celled organism to evolve into a human being through mutation and natural selection than for (2) Darwinists to admit they have no proof of (1) - Ann Coulter | |

Better look at the stats. How many 1300+ yard seasons has he had? Can he match Torry Holt's 6 seasons in a row with 1300+ yards?
Didn't think so. | |

 |  |  |   footballdude Premium join:2002-08-13 Imperial, MO | Re: T.O. is Overrated! Owens - .71 touchdowns per game in his career. Holt - .42 touchdowns per game in his career.
Holt has played on consistently better teams than Owens with better quarterbacks. I love Torry but TO dominates. | |

imo the FCC should make all this blackout shit illegal, if you are going to broadcast a game then you should have no right to say sorry(insert city here)since you live in the same town as the game you cant watch it on the TV come spend 300 bucks for a family and anotehr 150 for the food. -- [65 Arcanist]Filan(High Elf) Zone: Broadband Reports | |

| btw just dont use a C-Band dish and pull the game from out of market if you own a bar. the NFL sued a bar owner once for showing a game in his bar because the bar was in a blackout area but he used one of the big C-Band dishes to pull from out of market.
i just hope the NFL lost that lawsuit because they cant really say sorry you cant pull that from orbit(if its in the air its open game). -- [65 Arcanist]Filan(High Elf) Zone: Broadband Reports | |

| So let's compare... MLB is $80 per year, only blacked out in the city itself, and they've even gone as far as creating a viewer that lets you watch 6 games at once (which tbh, most people don't have the bandwidth for anyway), and the NFL comes out 3 years later with this?
