All those with digital TV, Sunday Ticket is free this weekend. YES!

Guess I could have put this in the "other NFL blah blah blah" forum, but who cares about the other games. I get to watch the Broncos play when I wouldn't have othewise.

It was a message on our DirecTV box that said free weekend. So yeah, I guess you can record whatever game you want. :D

i split Sunday ticket with dad, and I'm gonna login to his account over the internet, patch it through to my laptop, and using a vga to RGB hi-def cable, patch it through to my big screen tv.

i unfortunately have to go this route since my apt complex forbids satellite dishes, but whatever works!

Nah it belongs right here because it deals with the Broncos specifically. :salute:

That sounds really technical and complicated. I'm sure it's worth it though.

It's Broncos football it's got to be worth it.

I didn't see that come up on my box...I guess I better look. That's fantastic news! I hope it is everywhere. I wasn't going to get to see this weekends game otherwise!

nah it's easy.

This is for those poor saps (like me) who had to move and can't have DirecTV installed where they moved to because the landlords won't allow it. So if you know someone who has it, you can offer to split the package with them, and then login on the internet, patch it through to your laptop, desktop, or even to your big screen hdtv (if you're smart like me :D )

It's also for those who travel and can't be home to catch the game.

To patch Streamed NFL Sunday Ticket to your big screen follow the directions below

Note: For desktop and laptop viewers wishing only to watch from their computers, follow Steps 1 & 5 only.


Step 1: connect to the internet with your

Yeah, DTV has done this every year since I can remember. Too bad I don't have it now that I'm living away from home. Another year of watching all the Broncos games in New Orleans sports bars while dealing with annoying Saints fans!

This is my second year without Directv but I thought they had done this every year though I had the Sunday Ticket.

Man, I was looking at your Tebow avatar and that dude has some guns for a QB!!

I love Sunday Ticket. Have had it since I moved to Oklahoma! Haven't missed a Broncos game since I was 5. It's well worth the money to me (I always get them to
Discount it some amount. $120 this year). This weekend is free to anyone who has Directv so if you have DTV, you'll get the perks of having Sunday ticket for this Sunday only!
