I'm excited!
With everybody at work talking about the game, and also where I stopped for a cold beverage on the way home, it's like a mini-Super Bowl!!
I did pick up an extra pack of bratwurst and have put in a leave slip for tomorrow!

NFL Network, I hope you all have it. Otherwise you guys are SOL.

Personally..for it NOT to be on national TV is a travesty.
There have been a few regular season games this year that have been almost as exciting to see as a SuperBowl...Dallas v Green Bay was one that unless you have DishNetwork...your out of luck.
Having to have DishNetwork and the like to see a regularly scheduled weekday game is insane....(Unless the NFL is in bed with satallite tv services).
I do not think CBS Sports should even be allowed to carry NFL games.
All day last week, CBS touted on how it was airing the Indianapolis game at 7:00 Central, and went on to air some lame Survival re-cap episode of stuff that Survivor viewers had already seen instead....then on to other lame programming.
Fox & ESPN have shown themselves to be the new bearer of NFL games. Let people who know what they are doing air the games.
ABC kissed goodbye to NFL MNF, and with good reason...rating slumped as many NFL fans did not like EGOMAN Brent Michaels calls, and the constant turn-over of color commentary side-kicks (many who personally disliked Michaels' EGO...and his penchant for getting some of the best color folks run off the show).
The era of Howard, Dandy Don & Company, et al MNF was over.
This will play itself out, and the best medium for the games will be dictated by ratings and ad dollars in the end.
My hope is that Fox Sports & ESPN win out. At least you can see most of the best match-ups if you have cable.
My pick on the game....Dallas 28--GB 21....
Dallas handicap 2.5 to 1, home field advantage and ROMO is on a TEAR. Don't take a point spread higher than that if you are "wagering".
Farve has never won in Dallas, but I'd pony up the hot sauce to put on my hat while I eat it if GB wins!
I live 4 hours from Dallas, put prefer Prince Brent & The Cheddar-Heads.
Either side....good luck and enjoy the game...(IF you can see it).

Give it time and the NFL will be outsourced to China.
CBS Chinesse Broadcasting Station.
GB: 28 Dallas: 21

Got Dish and a barrel of NFL channels.
Would trade them for something more fun to watch than grass growing.

NFL.com sucks now...does anyone know where I can get a free radio cast of the game tonight over the net?

That's a free radio for the game

I've had DirecTV for 8 years. I have the NFL Network and won't be watching.
-
Go Pack Go! (in Lambeau rythym) ...there's nothing like a game at Lambeau!
My entire season in one pick'em football pool lies on this game(pretty much)
If the Pack wins, I stand alone in first place out of over 200 people. If they lose, I drop down to third.
Go Pack Go!

Favre v.2006 showed up. Game over. Turned off.... time to fly.
-
10 point game now,
-
Collinsworth is terrible......
Gumble suks......
Collinsworth....says....Well Greenbay stopped Dallas that last drive....Lets recap.....
1st play 47 yard completion to Owens.....1st down....
1st down...Barber slips...loses 2 or 3 yards...
2nd down Romo COMPLETELY misses a WIDE FRIKIN OPEN whitten...incomplete....
3rd down...Romo COMPLETELY MISSES A WIDE OPEN Whitten AGAIN....punt....
BOTH PASSES WERE PLENTY for 1st downs......
SO....Green Bay stopped em? Looked like Dallas stopped themselves.
Collinsworth is an idiot.
-
Dallas needs to pull their head out right now. Farve went out and they went on cruise control.
-
face mask...
:furious
-
TOUCHDOWN
-
face mask....:D
-
Backup QB doing a good job. That was a darn good drive he put together.
-
yep, no cakewalk for the defense

WOuld someone PLEASE check the sidelines for Farve....
I think he's in the booth and Collinsworth and Gumble are taking turns....
Sluurrrrpp sluuurrrppp....bash the Cowboys...SLuuurrrppp slurrrppp...stroke the nads....bash the Cowboys...slurrrpppp
NFL Network.....what a frikin JOKE.

Great Kick for Green Bay....that guy NAILED that kick...nice.
-
Bad call to not go for it on 4th and an inch IMO. Your next 4th down might not be so makeable.
-

I wish some of you would see these guys on NFL.com while this game is on......I wanna puke

Gumble and Collinsworth are terrible.....absolutley terrible. They couldn't talk for having Brett Farves and the rest of the green Bay PACKERS doin em. Tony Kornheiser is better than those 2 and he looks and sounds like a total moron.

aint that the truth..

Living in Packer country my whole life and watching the game tonight at a Restaurant (thanks Charter!), this was as painful as Super Bowl 32. So many disappointed faces after the game. I could spew words for an hour, but I'll leave it at that.
-
All you Charter haters should read the full page ad they took out in the DFW papers. "Sorry satellite, Charter's got the game!!!"
They forgot to mention it was the simulcast on KDFI-TV27. Whenever a game is on cable, they allow 1 broadcast station to show the game in the home towns. I think it's an FCC rule.

As painful as 4th and 26? It still hurts like an open wound.

It hurt, but not 4th and 26 hurt. Mainly because it was still a regular season game. If that was the NFC championship game, I may have seen grown men cry, possibly myself.

It was a great game.
Everyone here was talking about the game. It was like a "mini-Super Bowl".
WTG Cowboys!

yea...go cowboys AND refs. hard to beat cowboys and the refs. instant replay is worthless with crooked refs. last time i seen officiating like this was when i'd watch olympic boxing abd basketball.
basically sports are for bookies and suckers. i stopped watching sports for years because of crooked refs. NBA is prolly the worst. when theres this much money on the line it cant be honest. that crooked ref that got caught is only the tip of the iceberg. i've been saying for years..the league has already picked a winner before the season even starts. and god forbid that team to have a lousy climate.
i saw this before many times. the latest was when milwaukee bucks were beating the 76's few years back in the semi-finals.they were up 3-1 when after the game the league said milwuakee winning was not good for the league because of a small market. the 6'ers won the next 3 games ina row. ex. #2..terrel owens runs out of bounds after a catch comes back in and scores.all on instant replay..was not over turned.knocking the pack out of the playoffs. micheal jordan decides to come back and play for the wizards..who gets first round pick?? suprise!! all done behind closed doors.
the league plays king maker and they only decides who wins and whats best for the league.
i quit watching for years all sports. this years i said i will give it another try.well it didn't last long and i see things havnt changed. i'm done.

68Wooley, my squad brother from my ancesteral homeland of Scotland...<>
Green Bay won the first few national titles under the legendary head coach Vince Lombardi in the 1960's.
Dallas won some national title in the 1970's and '80s under legendary coach Landry.
Dallas' record this year is very good, and so is Green Bay's.
The game should have been nationally televised. It was a total cluster that it wasn't.
Many fans from the MidWestern US back Green Bay, and many southern US fans will side with Dallas......despite the fact that Dallas (and the Raiders) have the most hated ratings amongst fans in America.
Dallas v Green Bay was a national game that was only seen by folks who have satellite tv.....a travesty.
It was the same as having our football playoff games only seen by people who can copy Morse Code at 45 words a minute or more.

look at it like this ..football is a bizness.your in biz' to make money.
who do you think the league would rather see in the super bowl....
green bay-new england? green bay w/a population of 100,000 and milwaukee about 750,000 people.not a larger audience and commercials would prolly be cheaper to puchase. or..
dallas-new england. whos mexico nfl team? the cowboys. the game will be televised all through out mexico. millions of viewers. you already see spanish commercials during football of NBC. the price of a commercial goes up millions.
you dont think the refs/league is on a mission? sports is for bookies and suckers.

You have much to learn about the Packer fan base.

right been a packer fan since bart star..lived in wisconsin all my life. i know absolutly nothing about the packers or their base. u guys need to get your head out of the sand...you think this only happens in the movies?
-
It's ok to cuss the refs a bit ftdeep but it's kinda silly to go off the deep end about it. If you think football is rigged, why watch?
I usta go to the cotton bowl to watch the Cowboys play and I remember quite well the "ice bowl" in '67. I'm pretty confident we're gonna see a rematch between these teams in the playoffs. Should Green Bay win you may find yourself owing the NFL an apology?
-
Cowboys have never suffered from bad officiating.
Never happened.
Historical fact.

I think Steve means that Packer fans are everywhere. When I was in Tampa, there were usually more Packer fans than Bucs on Sundays.
