Giants @ Carolina.......hmmmmm.....which team has the most oldsters?

2 games in 4 days...OUCH!

Some of the older guys (and younger ones as well) haven't recovered from the contusions of the first game, and now they have to go do it all over on four days rest so the NFL, as in NFL Network, can rake in some more dough.

Gotta wonder if the NFL will abandon network TV coverage and DirecTV's Sunday Ticket and go it alone on cable/sat and eliminate the middle man from their cash cow next time around for TV negotiations.

Streaming video offers a whole new world of opportunity. Who needs cable even? Probably in 10 years hardly anyone will have that anymore anyway. I frankly considered cutting it a year ago and went all internet streaming: Netflix for movies and older stuff and Hulu Plus for newer stuff. That's a total of $16 a month plus the internet costs. I didn't do it for primarily one reason: sports. If I could direct stream the NFL and MLB (really just the Phillies) I'd probably go ahead and cut the cable.
