Justice Posted March 16, 2005 Posted March 16, 2005 do they include Buffalo based programming like it was reported?
Talonz Posted March 16, 2005 Posted March 16, 2005 Yes, the NFL Network is now online in the Buffalo area. I have only watched it a few times and did not see local programming.
elcrusho Posted March 16, 2005 Posted March 16, 2005 Yeah it was but you will probably see more Bills programming when the season draws nearer
Justice Posted March 16, 2005 Author Posted March 16, 2005 Yeah it was but you will probably see more Bills programming when the season draws nearer 276958[/snapback] If so, is it possible for me to join DirecTV using a Buffalo address, only to really use it in Miami? I wonder if that would work?

Long story short : I tried this about 8 years ago before everyone had caller ID , thus it didn't enter my mind that they would have it on DTV's end.. I tried to tell them I was in Erie PA..>The guy asked me why was a Buffalo # and address was coming up on his screen from my phonecall... I hung up and did it the legit way later that day

It didn't work Now, if I would of called FROM Erie it would of worked...

LabattBlue Posted March 16, 2005 Posted March 16, 2005 do they include Buffalo based programming like it was reported? 276949[/snapback] I didn't see anything about the NFL Network having programming specific to the cities it is being broadcasted to. Are you implying that every NFL city gets customized programming from the NFL Network?

I live in Miami and they don't show local programming here, but I do know someone posted that about The NFL Network in Buffalo. I found it odd too.

I found it odd too. 277154[/snapback] Maybe they meant that things like the Eric Moulds show, Mike Mularkey show, and Paul Maguire show, which I believe are syndicated, would be pre-empt whatever programming the NFL Network is showing, assuming that the producers of those shows would pay the airing fees, for the space time...I live in Austin, TX- so I don't get any of these shows, but just guessing! I don't believe that the NFL network creates programming specifically for one NFL city...
its only real shh Posted March 17, 2005 Posted March 17, 2005 ^^^That seems like you could be right about those few shows bein aired. I dont see a customized Buffalo Bills NFL network, it would probably cost alot more money to do it like that and they do this for profit.

Are you implying that every NFL city gets customized programming from the NFL Network? 277153[/snapback] If you have Digital there is NFL on Demand. On the NFL on Demand I did see highlights of the Bills 1992 & 1993 seasons, there was also that Hey Rookie! Special that covered Mike Williams. Also NFL Total Access on the normal NFL network is a sportscenter type show that does talk about the Bills when their in the headlines etc. Sure it's not indepth as Empire was but I like it.
