help regarding watching the bears

by Glacier on Aug 20, 2007 9:03 PM CDT

i know this is not baseball related. although a month ago you all helped me out regarding the cubs. i moved to north carolina a month ago and u all helped me with what i needed to see the games. now i need help with what i need to see the bears. how many games do u think i would be able to see just on espn and fox or whatever for free without anything extra. now i have direct tv, and i have extra innings for now. but my question is what do i need to see a good amount of bear games, and how many do you think i can see just through espn fox ect? i appreciate all your help for the advice on seeing the cubs and i hope someone can help me with this.

Like Extra Innings...

... the NFL has a package called "NFL Sunday Ticket". I believe you can get it, since you have DirecTV.

It'll cost you, but that way you can see ALL the Bears games.

With-out

Sunday Ticket, not many...

You live in a NFC market (Panthers), as do I (Vikings), so the non Monday and Sunday night games (and the Thursday game) on Fox and CBS are all regional. You'll likely get the Panthers games first, then (I'm guessing) the Falcons games second (here in Minnesota, the Vikings games are first, then Packers games are second (fortunatly for me, since I at least live with-in the Division, I occasionaly get a few games...).

Looking at the Bears schedule, with DirecTV, you should be albe to get 5 games (3 Sunday night NBC games, 1 Monday night ESPN game, and 1 Thursday NFL Network game). The CBS/Fox games (the remaining 11 games) are not likely for you...

So, are those 11 games worth the Sunday Ticket price?

heres a suggestion

save your money cause the bears suck and will not do anything but lose. spend your money on america's team the DALLAS COWBOYS!! their going to win the super bowl.

Here comes the nasty leftie to shut it down in the 9th......Clay Rapada!!!!

they must have

worked on getting a snap down all season

"america's team"

a self proclaimed motto bestowed upon a bunch of drug dealing criminals in the early 90's who happen to be extremely talented football players

i guess that represents america, we'll ignore the actual integrity or character of a man if their production in the workplace warrants it

i guess its still relevant considering "america's team's" most prominent figure is a self-indulging, ego-maniacal, WR that needs to be front and center in the media limelight every chance he gets

that's probably another good representation of "america's team"

yeh sorry... i'll stick with the NFC champion Chicago Bears
