NFL Network to re-air games.

QuoteNFL Game Re-Airs will play in a 90-minute fast-paced format without halftime and other elements not critical to the outcome. NFL Game Re-Airs will tell the story of the game with additional features.

In order to give the games context, NFL Network will add sideline and on-field sound captured during the game and postgame press conference sound bites.

Other enhancements will include exclusive shots and camera angles from NFL Films, allowing fans an inside look at game action they did not see on Sunday. This will give fans a deeper understanding of the game, the players and the coaches.

For example, if NFL Game Re-Airs was featuring the Colts-Steelers AFC Divisional Playoff where Jerome Bettis fumbled late in the game, viewers would see related comments from Bettis, Bill Cowher and others immediately after the play, as well as slow-motion footage showing the play as it unfolded.

NFL Network has the ability to select any NFL game for use on NFL Game Re-Airs, complete with original television announcers and cameras.

good stuff.

You can edit a football game down to a half hour, but it's over too quick. I guess they're stretching it to an hour with a half hour of commercials.

The man. The myth. The legend.

I figure most of you get the NFL package from DirecTV, so I'd pass this along to help since I just read it:

If you have a good relationship with DirecTV and have a history of getting the NFL package you can call the retention program, if you're polite and a little lucky you'll qualify for a high def DVR, free superfan, free installation, and possible 4 months of free programming. NOTE: You're leasing the high def DVR.

The high defintion DVR you're getting is their old one, so you won't be able to view local high definition from their new satellite.
