For those of you that have had Sunday Ticket before, what broadcast do you see? Is it network coverage (NBC, CBS, Fox, ABC) or is it some generic DirecTV broadcast?

They're advertising it for $280 until July 31. Anyone have positive or negative feedback?

Thanks

If you want to watch the games in HD, you'll have to order the Super Fan package for an additional $99.

The Sunday Ticket is worth every penny, especially if you play fantasy football and/or bet on football. I usually get a few friends to help pitch in since they always end up at my house to watch the games anyway.

Ya it is crap but they know they've got you where they want you. If you are an NFL fan and have had it before, you won't do without it ever again. I think I'm working on season 7 or 8 of having it.

I just go to the bars and watch it. I would never pay that kind of money to that kind of company.

On top of HD with the Super Fan package you also get the Red Zone channel. This is usually the channel I watch when my team is on in the afternoon.

Rocko, add up what you spend at the bars and compare it to what it costs to have Sunday Ticket. You'd save quite a bit. This was a big reason my wife and I got it.

ChrisG, I forgot about the RZC. Plus, if you're ever away from home but have internet access, you can watch any game on your PC by using your username/password. Pretty nice extra.
