Attention Overseas Jets Fans!!!!!!!

hmm,pretty expensive.You can get the game on dvds for about the same price and it will be better quality.I'm not going to pay £300 for both.

 

Not good value. £25 for the year I'd pay, not £150. But thanks.

 

no mention if it covers the playoffs as well.

 

Good news for the Non-North American Jets fans.

that is damn expensive

 

25 bucks a week to watch the Jets? That's absurd.

 

you can get the full mlb.tv season for 75 dollars.. that price is crazy.. isn't there streamtv or something for free

 

I wish that was available in North America. Right now I watch 6 (8 this week) games a week. (2 on tape on a second TV) If I could I'd watch nearly all of them.

 

It may be, I agree. But they wouldn't price it there if they didn't think they could get enough people to buy it. The NFL is pretty savvy from a business perspective.

 

the nfl owns it from a business perspective. they are basically keeping direct-tv afloat right now. them being the largest revenue sport, they pretty much control completely control the supply of a HUGE demand.

 

Technically you can get this to work in the states. My friend just got it working using a proxy in france.

 

Difference is, that its much easier to find a baseball game on TV, not to mention that not even the diehard fans watch all the games.

 

You get access to every game...You don't have to watch each game live (in fact some you may not get live), but you can watch all the games each week. It's not great quality, but it's a pretty good deal for people that live abroad or technically savy people that live very far away from their home teams and cannot get directv.

 

does anyone know when preseason games get scheduled for next season? and do they still have 1 or 2 games overseas in the preseason? there have been whispers that the jets could play the cowboys in an exhibition game in australia in the near future with a lot of interest in the 2 aussie punters over here

there was a game here maybe 7 or 8 years ago broncos vs chargers when there were 2 aussie punters but it was in sydney

 

what playoffs...

 

going to the sprots bar isnt much cheaper

 

It'll get hacked.

 

I hacked it already today.
