man this sucks.. wonder if you will need the hd pack too.. doesnt say anything about it on the site-- only triple lnb, hdtv and hdird.. I thought the hd ticket would be mpeg 4 this year.. oh well.. at least there is some good news.. looks like they will lift the blackout on the 4pm games when the 1pm runs long - maybe the poll should be changed to yes, no, not sure yet.. cause I am still on the fence.. I usually split st with some friends - meaning they can head over to the hometheater room on sundays and watch all day.. not sure if they will want to pony up the extra $$

Q: What if a local station switches coverage due to a one sided or extra-long game?
A: If a local station switches coverage due to a one sided or extra-long game, DIRECTV will remove the restrictions when permitted by the NFL so that the game will be available in the 700-719 channel range.
If a local station stays with coverage of an extra-long game instead of switching to the start of the next game, DIRECTV will remove the restrictions on the start of the next game, when permitted by the NFL, so that the game will be available in the 700-719 channel range until the local station resumes coverage as scheduled.
