The NFL Sunday Ticket With Direct TV DVR
Fall is the best time of year. No not because of the cooler weather and the falling leaves, but because it is finally football season.
The college football season is great because after several months of virtually nothing on TV as far as sports, suddenly you are engulfed with dozens of games every weekend. Sure I can take in a baseball game live, but sitting and watching it on TV puts a man to sleep. At least the Beijing Olympics provided some sports action this summer.
I love both the college and the NFL games for several reasons. The passion involved in the college game is like nothing else. Every weekend, hundreds of thousands of screaming fans fill up local stadiums in an effort to help the home team to victory. With the expansion of network TV contracts, there are usually good games on every Thursday and Saturday night as well. While I don’t really like the BCS system that is in place in the college game, one benefit to the setup is that every regular season game really is big. A college team could get away with one loss during the year, but if they want a shot at the title, then they can’t afford to lose more than once.
The National Football League is a different animal, but just as good in my opinion. Again the passion is amazing, especially in the great NFL cities like Dallas, Denver, Chicago, and New York. What makes the NFL great for many fans is the expansion of fantasy football. Sure some guys go a little overboard, in that they use every waking moment evaluating their roster and proposing ridiculous trades to the other owners in the league. But if you get in with the right set of guys and gals, then fantasy football makes all of the games much more interesting.
This season I had to evaluate my cable TV, as Cox cable TV continued to let me down me as far at their service and pricing. Luckily for me, I had a couple of choices, as U-verse service is now in my area, as well as satellite TV. After looking into my options, I discovered there are great satellite television deals going on right now. So then it became the old Direct TV vs DISH Network debate Being the huge fan that I am, I just wouldn’t pass up the Direct TV Sunday Ticket package that they offer. On top of that, they offer new college football packages, such as the ESPN Gameplan. Overall, there is just more for your money when comparing Direct TV against Comcast. Plus, you just can’t beat the Direct TV DVR.
My spouse may not like that selection, but of course she will know where I will be, right in front of the television this fall!
