NFL ticket..... - The Orange Mane

~Crash~ · 02-04-2008, 06:36 PM

I have bought NFl Ticket for 4 or 5 years now and this year has totally pissed me off between not getting me to the game to the price of it I am done with NFL ticket

DomCasual · 02-04-2008, 06:43 PM

That just pop in your head?

~Crash~ · 02-04-2008, 06:57 PM

yep I found a bill when looking for something in the draw and fliched at what I paid for 3 games that I missed the up to 10 minuets of the game .... I started out paying $99 this year $250 I called them and asked them for the free upgrade like they were giving out to everyone and they said that it would cost ...oh there is a few things I am pissed about today as I rethink the cost rises and the BS rules the pull each season.

The apartment that live i in wont allow me to have DT.

There are to many trees and wont be able to get a signal.

But if i could, i would of been all over it.

Thank God my buddy has it.

I've had it for several years, like maybe 7 or 8 or so (don't remember when I started getting it), but I am tired of spending that much on it too. It wasn;t as bad before they split the HD channels off into the other package. I bet they have some new wrinkle next year to charge more again. Doubt I get it next year.

If I didn't live in the Broncos coverage area every week I would get it

Crushaholic · 02-04-2008, 08:29 PM

The sportsbar I frequent every week has Direct Ticket and enough TVs to watch all the games at once...

Bronco Jamus · 02-04-2008, 08:51 PM

Move to Denver. It's free and in HD with your rabbit ears. Plus better content on the local news. It's sweet.

I hate to say it, but 100% correct. If I ever moved to a place I couldn't get them every single week without issue, I'd shell out and not look back. Thankfully, I can.

Arkansas Bronco · 02-04-2008, 10:16 PM

Ill get it again. No way for me to pass it up living so far away and I cant miss a game.

DivineLegion · 02-04-2008, 10:35 PM

I prefer sports bars to be honest, my buddy had the NFL package and just ended up gonig to the Bar with me every sunday. $4 for a pound of wings or a nice couch...

backup qb · 02-04-2008, 10:38 PM

I live in a rural area so going to sports bars is out of the question. I couldn't imagine life without the ticket.

TheChamp24 · 02-04-2008, 10:41 PM

I hate Direct TV and their scumbag ways of getting money. Also hate the NFL for not allowing cable to get in on the Ticket.

Have had the ticket for about five years. Just upgraded to the HD package this year. The Viking game wasn't in HD here. We usually have everyone over so I figure I'm saving not going to the bar with the wife every game. Have a football bar, fireplace, hot tub and my bed right upstairs so no dealings with '"the law" after the game. I'll keep it but it does seem like a rip off. Just choose one team and get them all for like $100.00 would work for me. Get to laugh at the Chiefs and Al Davis when Denver not on.

Bob's your Information Minister · 02-04-2008, 11:05 PM

I love my Chiefs, sorry. Plus, 14 of the games this year were in HD. Awesome.

No Frills · 02-04-2008, 11:12 PM

This last season was the first season I did not have DirecTv for the last 6-7 years. I moved during September and was not sure if I could install an antenna in my new place.

I plan to install DirecTv this year and keep it as long as I can receive NFL Ticket.

I love HDTV and not having to worry about a DUI, big bar tabs etc.

I can stay at my place, BBQ and watch the Broncos!

NFLBRONCO · 02-04-2008, 11:14 PM

I'll get it again in 08. I have to admit this year was a bummer alot of dud matchups because so many so so or bad teams.

Orange_Beard · 02-04-2008, 11:31 PM

I decided that I would rather travel to Denver for a couple of games and go to a sports bar when they are not on. The money is about the same and I would much rather be at Mike High on Sunday. "Live" is the best way to see my beloved Broncos.

Are we doing a roadie next season?

MrPeepers · 02-05-2008, 12:13 AM

i'm over it, had it for 4 years now with HD package, too many HD options and NFL Network has diluted it's unique advantage.

no longer the only way to see the games i want.

It'll be the only way to see the team next year on TV because you know they'll only have one or two at best nationally televised games next season and probably Monday nighters....finishing 7-9 with a general feeling of being on the decline will do that.

PaintballCLE · 02-05-2008, 12:49 AM

well sunday ticket would be worth it if directv had a good picture. I have had adelphia, time warner, directv, and dish network.......unfortunately directv has the worst picture of all of them. The HD directv looks about as good as standard def on cable.

With this being said......$250 to watch all the broncos games is a small price to pay.

Somebody didn't have their DTV hooked up properly, or you had a ****ty satellite/reciever combo. DTV has the best picture of anything else I've seen.

Like GreatBronco16 said, your TV or reciever were not set correctly. My Bro-in-law said he could not tell the difference between Hi Def and regular TV. His DirecTv reciever was not set for 720P or 108-i, go figure, he was watching everything in 480p. Not much difference betwwen 480p and regular TV. He was right, but he was wrong,
