Nope, not at all, just waiting for the next one
After all it's a forgone conclusion that the Bucks will be in the next one, if you listen to the media.

I feel obligated to delete any posts indicating the Buckeyes going anywhere this year.
GO BLUE!
Back to the NFL
This strategy of calling to request free superfan or "what can you do for me" regarding NFL-ST is the same that many used last year.
What the rep can do will depend on your account history, the value of your montly bill, time with DirecTV, time since last discount, etc.
Many people will be able to get a $99 charge wavied, just like many are able to get a free hardware upgrade ($99-$199). Also, many people will not, such as people that got a recent hardware discount, recent programming credits ($10 off for 12 mo.) etc.
All anyone can do is be polite, call and ask. Then make your decision if you want to keep NFL.
Also, for some people that haven't had NFL but want it, they do sometimes offer the new customer promo to existing customers who want to get NFL for the first time. i.e. $70 for NFL-ST & Premier for 4 months. Superfan is still extra on this promo.
