Congrats Time Warner dudes...you now have THE NFL NETWORK & REDZONE CHANNEL

[Rev]

The National Football League reached agreement with Time Warner (TWC) Cable Inc. to carry the league-owned NFL Network and RedZone Channel, a person with direct knowledge of the situation said.

The multiyear accord may be announced later today, according to the person, who was granted anonymity because the contract hasn’t been signed. New York-based Time Warner, the second-largest U.S. cable company with about 12 million subscribers, had been the only major cable provider without the NFL Network. It isn’t known when the channels will appear on Time Warner systems, the person said.

The agreement comes about a month after the most-watched U.S. sports league reached agreement with Cablevision Systems Inc. to carry the two channels.

NFL Network airs 13 primetime regular-season games. RedZone is a game-day network that shows touchdowns and important plays inside the 20-yard line. NFL Network will carry the Cleveland Browns at the Baltimore Ravens on Sept. 27.

Time Warner spokeswoman Maureen Huff declined to comment. NFL spokesmen Brian McCarthy and Dan Masonson didn’t immediately return e-mails and phone calls seeking comment on whether an agreement had been reached.

That full season of games put too much pressure on them. I know mad people that switched to Direct TV over that nonsense.

i wonder which side was being "unfair" though. it could've been the NFL trying to charge like shyt for it with a separate package too & the cable companies were like "fukk outta here...mlb & nba don't do that."

so maybe the NFL felt pressure too.

The NFL Network is actually losing money...so it's a good deal for them as well.

NFL was def price gouging them dudes. I think Time Warner wanted to offer it as an addon channel, but NFL was demanding it be apart of a basic channel package.

Congrats to those that have Time Warner. I left them a few years ago because they were just taking too damn long to carry the network. I guess I would have left anyway though, can't beat Sunday Ticket.
