My Bad, it was my brother in Boston that said it was going to be on locally.
However, COX cable does carry the NFL network (ch 137), and that's my
brother's cable co in Cheshire. He said it's carried on the basic tier as
well. I knew both east coast bros could watch it... just got confused as to
how.


I stand corrected - Cox has it on the digital tier.

The whole black-out/my territory thing with sports is a friggin joke anyway.
Just 2 years ago, my bro in Cheshire was FINALLY able to get NESN. For
years, the Yankees claimed that it was their territory, and NESN wasn't
offered. He was one of the main guys that spearheaded the effort with the
Red Sox to get COX to carry NESN.


I hear you. I'm on the Regional Cable Advisory Committee for Windham
County and I could tell you stories... :)
