I wanted to announce that this blog now has a sponsor for the season! We were approached by Comcast, who is looking to get the word out about Comcast Redzone (http://www.comcast.com/
We won’t be bombarding you with marketing messages, but we’ll remind you every once in a while about some of the great sports features available from Comcast, like Redzone. For a little cash a month, you get the Redzone Channel which shows all the redzone action on NFL Sunday as its happening.
This weekend on Sunday, Oct. 4th, they’ll provide Redzone for free on Comcast from 1-4 PM.
Plus, they got stuff like On Demand content from the NFL network including game recaps of every game, every week; draft profiles, player profiles, etc.
So just wanted to say thanks to Comcast for sponsoring the blog and let you guys know about some of the stuff they have for NFL fans.
More info after the jump...
- Recently moved all of the major sports networks to their most popular tier of service giving it to millions more people at no additional charge, and launched ESPNU. Also offering ESPN360 to their internet customers for free.

This looks like a perfect marriage.
Great to see Comcast do something right for a change.
Beer is good! And stuff!
Even a stopped clock is right twice a day
It’s great that they’re sponsoring the blog, but that doesn’t change the fact that their service stinks.
And even a blind squirrel finds a nut once in a while
Comcast is pretty much the only game in town for cable where I am. [Verizon Fios isn’t available yet on streets with underground utilities.] We wanted to switch last spring when NFL Network was removed, and the only way to get it would have been with DirectTV, and paying the start-up costs, etc…. Luckily the fued was resolved, NFL Network returned, and we were able to stay with the Comcast service we already had.
The internet is so frustratingly spotty though. I’ve called 4 times within the last two weeks to have them reset it when I’ve lost my internet (and digital phone) service. Sigh. A story for another day.
Keep the faith!
The scary thing is that their service is much better here than it is in some other places
I was in the DC area on business in July and stayed with some friends. Their cable worked ok, but their internet service would just disappear for intervals of between 30 seconds and two hours without any warning and without any reason. Comcast gave them some song and dance about that being normal.
Honestly I had no issue with service
We just heard about them capping people elsewhere, and we switched half out of principle and half out of not wanting to risk that happening to us in the future.

Hey Comcast
Stop being so stingy with HD Celtics away games on other providers! I’m not switching back from Verizon, so all you’re doing is making me sad. =(
Please don’t make me sad. =(
Lol, love the analogies guys
Sweet! I got the sports package earlier this year to watch the English Premier League games and so I already have it. This channel is definitely going on my favorites!
Can't even get Comcast here.
Not that I’m complaining.
The more you know, the more you know that you don't know.

I envy you.
I’m practically in the heart of the Evil Empire here in the Philly area. And it’s the only thing we get. God really must want me to suffer.
Beer is good! And stuff!
