Maybe I am misunderstanding what you are complaining about, but before DirectTV came out with their NFL Sunday Ticket, I could not watch my favorite team (Vikings) because I was in the Packers home market. So for my family it was a huge deal. I don't know how you can claim a monopoly when it is actually an added value that wasn't available to me until DirectTV offered it.

Are you claiming that cable should show each and every game available for free, because there might be someone that can't afford a dish? I really must not understand the complaint.

No, not at all. I think cable should be allowed to carry the Sunday Ticket package as well. I have no complaint with charging for the service. I'd simply like to see all satellite companies and cable companies have the option of carrying the NFL and MLB seasons.
