So you base your entire earlier post (stating in a manner as if it were fact) on nothing more than a coincidence?
You heard it here first folks!!!!! |

You don't read too good, huh? My point was precisely that it wasn't a coincidence but the way the deal was negotiated. Two games to be broadcast live from the ground, the third to be on red button only with studio presenters. That being the established practice it is beyond me why anybody was surprised by Sunday conforming to the pattern that had been arranged two years ago and announced then, again at the beginning of the season, and in the week running up to the game.
"Sky was the main broadcaster as the feed was from Fox and not NFL." |

So you're not sticking to your statement that:

Delighted to see there is a game on Christmas Day (9.30pm kickoff our time) - finally something decent to watch on Christmas Day
Like there's 7pm-10.05pm-10.25pm kickoffs on 24th December, with a 2.30am game Christmas day.. |

Currently we are on Eastern Daylight Time (-4) which will change this weekend to Eastern Standard Time (-5).
As you can see they are currently listing everything EDT on cbssports http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/schedul...lar/2016/week9 http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/schedul...ar/2016/week10 http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/schedul...ar/2016/week15 Presumably this will be altered on their site by Sunday. It will all turn out as chrisfinch says! |

Just noticed last minute change to Sky Sports Mix today, now showing red zone this Sunday and again next Sunday, they previously have 2 of the MLS playoffs listed for tonight.
Looks like we might get Red zone all season long at this rate. |

If it wasn't for RedZone I'm not sure I'd be watching any NFL this season. I never thought Cadle was that great a presenter but Dara is so bad she makes me miss Big Kev. It's just unwatchable now.
Presenters are a minor part of game coverage. Even when she's on, she is not bad at all. People just say she's bad because it seems to be the "cool" thing to do on here. |

NFL Redzone is good, but it is for NFL experts more than a casual NFL viewer like many of us. |

That sounds better than it really is. No full live NFL games have been aired on Sky's FTA channels so far this season for non-sky viewers. Pick TV and Sky Two had at least eight regular season games last year.
NFL Redzone is good, but it is for NFL experts more than a casual NFL viewer like many of us. I would suggest the "casual" viewer is put off the game by the number of stoppages and adverts, something totally negated by Redzone, thus making the game more appealing to watch. |

The main problem i have with Redzone is cutting away from a close game to a show a live redzone play from a blowout. I guess it's the fantasy element which means they stay true to their name but i'd prefer TDs from out of hand games on delay so that we don't miss a play from a game that's very much in the balance and important in terms of playoff implications.

Disappointing no BBC radio coverage last night as R5SX had tennis and they obviously couldn't be bothered to just have link on website.
I found the press release on the BBC website and I see it says regular Sunday night radio coverage so covers them for not having every weekend. Anyway found a stream of a Dallas radio station. I always find the local adverts they have on those stations amusing, but would be just the same for an Amaerican listening to local London radio say. But was great game though. |
