    that is crazy expensive i am sure some people in dorms can split the cost and have like sunday get togethers or something but never ceases to amaze how easily the NFL can make money.

    Does DirectTV have their own version of NFL Redzone yet?

    Redzone is the t***.

    LOL, that's about $300 more than I would ever pay for something like that, and I LOVE the NFL.

    For at least three years. They have their own studio and announcer. It's pretty good. I watched it more than I watched games last year.

    Now they just need to get the NBA League Pass streaming through the PS3.

    Yeah, I'll stick with NFL Redzone. From noon until 6:30 I'm addicted to that channel during football season.

    I'd at least think about it....but the combination of the cost plus the fact that half the season I'll be at Reliant (missing the early game slate and the first half of the second)....eehhh.

    this might work if multiple people get together and purchase a subscription, but 300 bucks is crazy. Also illegal links aren't hard to find.

    You can talk them down. I got it free last year. Just takes a little effort.

    As for the price....they charge what the market will pay.

    That's true but it'd be nice to be able to view proper versions in HD. That cost is nuts though.

    Yet? DirecTV had it before the standalone Red Zone channel existed as part of Sunday Ticket...

    I remember paying the hefty price tag every year JUST to watch the damn Red Zone channel, praying that some day there would be a separate red zone channel offered where i wouldn't have to buy the entire sunday ticket package...

    I'm trying to get just the redzone channel this year but they won't let me. I've tried twice. Don't want the whole package this year.
    I think I'll try again when it gets closer

    do you know a trick to get it?
