In my case it is either Charter or the NFL Network, but I tend to side with Charter on this one.  I am already paying high enough prices as it is, so adding an additional fee (assuming Charter and the NFL Network could reach some sort of agreement) is not very appealing.  As I understand it, the NFL Network does not want their fledgling channel to be part of some sort of premium package, but the cable companies think the NFL Network fee is just too high to absorb the channel into their various packages.<\/p>\n<p>Oh well, I guess a lot of NFL fans will not get to watch the best matchup of the day \u2013 New York Giants at Denver.  I will be pulling for Denver, to help out the Falcons, but I will be watching Texas Hook the Aggies!<\/p>\n<div class=\"addtoany_share_save_container addtoany_content_bottom\"><div class=\"a2a_kit a2a_kit_size_ addtoany_list a2a_target\" id=\"wpa2a_1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.addtoany.com\/share\" onclick=\"__gaTracker('send', 'event', 'outbound-article', 'https:\/\/www.addtoany.com\/share', '');\" class=\"a2a_dd addtoany_share_save\"><img src=\"http:\/\/www.calvertgames.com\/cgblog\/wp-content\/plugins\/add-to-any\/share_save_171_16.png\" width=\"171\" height=\"16\" alt=\"Share\"\/><\/a>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\"><!--\nif(wpa2a)wpa2a.script_load();\n\/\/--><\/script>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I wish the NFL Network and the various cable companies would kiss and make up.
