They get the channel back yet or I gotta put some rabbit ears for 40.

You won't cancel?

I don't know, too much trouble for 1 local channel.

No Redzone? I always activate it for the NFL season. Gives me something to do on a slow Sunday, when I can get them.

No I really don't watch that much tv I watch the niner games live or on dvr and maybe the snf if it's a good match up. Just watch the highlights of the other games online or on espn.

You're not overreacting...Dish is responsible for 74% of the programming interruptions/disputes. I have Direct TV and their commercials are correct...if you're a real sports fan, you need Direct TV. I subscribe to NFL Ticket...only one place you can get it...and it's Direct TV. Their Red Zone is light years ahead of what they show on NFL Network. Beyond all that, I live in Colorado Springs, where we get all sorts of weather. Outages w/Direct TV are few & far between and they resolve them quickly. Our experience with that service has been stellar...and they typically resolve any programming issues before there are any interruptions.

Get Directv and the NFL package. They will give you the NFL package free for the first year if you switch and you are a new customer!
Directv >>>> Dish

Agreed, not overreacting when Dish Network is notorious for this crap. I will never go back to them, worst TV provider, after Time Warner Cable IMO. Never had Comcast, heard they're horrible customer service wise.

I'm going to talk them into 2 free years of The Ticket. Don't call them directly or go through their website. Look for one of those stands in Costco or other events. Those people's jobs are to sell sell sell and they will throw in more free stuff and let you keep the deal for the entire length of the contract instead of raising rates with a year left.

But you know how hard it is to let go of something you are so comfortable with. Dish has been good to me so far.

You are right. I saw them at Costco yesterday. They will make you a deal.

I am about to switch to Direct TV. I live on an island in the Delta just outside of Comcast bay area service reach. SO its some sort of satellite or bust for me. Dropping Fox 40 and running ads the whole time blaming the network is just pissing me off more. The fact is this always seems to happen with Dish, couple years ago it was AMC right before The Walking Dead started. They ended up turning the channel back on in time but the not knowing and the games are tired.

I heard that dish network will give its customers bunny ear attenas for free. I may cop that.

Yup, they sent my restaurant some. My boss just took it home and hooked it up at his house lol.

Looks like Dish got NFL Network back.
