Dish and NBC are currently in a contract dispute with the chan being slated to be pulled Oct 9th. The philly game will be broadcast on NBC.  If you have dish, you may want to have a plan B just in case.

Plan A - go to the game

How many years have they been running the scroll and nothing goes away, unless you don't pay the bill. They do this to freak you out.

Well, at least somebody learned something from the weather channel.

lol AMC watchers would beg to differ

I never lost anything, but I don't have any tv at the moment. 

[Montsta]

I don't have Dish Network but it would be funny if DirecTV actually shut me off considering I've been threatening to cancel with them for like ten years to get a discount on Sunday Ticket. 

Actually that would kind of suck ass.

Get an OTA antenna and you will get ABC, NBC, and CBS for free in HD.  That will cover you for about 95 % of the games we play.

Simple solution.. go buy a digital antenna.. I haven't paid for cable or satellite in over a year don't miss it a bit.. i have a digital antenna than can pick up to 60 miles away, looks damn crisp.. and a roku with netflix and hulu subscriptions.. and i'm a prime member.. saves me like 125 a month.. helps if you know someone with cable or sat subscription, then you can use their credentials to get the ESPN channel on roku as well.. that gives you saturday college games and MNF

I did that this season. I would suggest it. Picture is actually better than what I ever had with Cable or Satellite. I just use my parents cable login information for Watch ESPN and I can watch MNF. Saving me a ton of money every month not having to pay some BS high charge just becuase there is no competition for cable or internet out there. When Google Fiber hits Charlotte I'm dropping windstream faster than a pass to Corey Brown.

[CLTPanther]

I'll probably drop my internet from TWC once google gets rolling. They said "300mb upgrade coming this summer" news flash bitches it's fall and I still don't have a free upgrade

I've got the same setup as well. Have you looked into Sling? I've been using it for 3 months now, and I highly recommend it. It's $20/month, and you get cable channels like ESPN, ESPN2, TBS, TNT, and CNN that stream live via your roku.
