I figured the dome fell in just to give him more time to recuperate. :popcorn:

Agreed, lurker. I think he's just fishing for a story by blowing smoke. Can't tell anyone how much I detest this drama queen!!

In other news, I just checked Fox for later tonlight. The Giants/Vikings game is not on. It's a "House re-run, Lie To Me, and our local news.

 :argh:

Yep, it'll be available in the Minneapolis & New York markets only unless you have the NFL Sunday Ticket package.

Heard ST is fairly expensive. Never bothered to look up how much/mo though. I don't have DirectTV either, so I guess it doesn't matter.

IIRC, It is approximately $200-$250 for the season.  Worth it if you use it.  I convinced the former Mrs. Wiggum that we should get it, actually I suggested it and she rationalized it as making sense.  She was a Packers fan and at least half the games were on at the same time as the Bears, so we'd have to go to a bar to catch Green Bay games.  8 games at a bar for the two of us times $40/$50...you do the rest of the math.

Well $200 bucks for all 16 games for all 32 teams aint bad IMO. 12.50 an NFL Week basically. Should come to $50 bucks a month. Kinda steep, but it would be more than worth it to me. I'd wear the buttons off the remote though. :rotf:

I'd say the ST price beats going to a bar for all the home games. (Away games too if it were my team.  :-))
