Would love to see the NFL programming on ESPN rather than Sky as they have more liberal rules with product placement

Weird that you should ask the post to be edited, especially as I'm watching the Steelers v Broncos pre-season game as I type :D

Thanks Kymmy. :)

Now what would make it perfect would be if Channel 4 would use this ident to start the programe. :D

Thanks for all the info.

Really looking forward to the new season. Just a shame that sky have so many of the games but at least channel 4 is back with one game a week (im to young to remember it first time around). Wonder if it will be HD or not.

Now all i need is for Virgin to put a bigger hard drive in my V+ box and im sorted

Re: NFL season 2010/2011
 

Good news about channel 4, god rid of sports a few months back as it was hard to justify just for NFL.

Was satisfied with just getting Collage football on ESPN, last season was great.

Really do hope they do use the logo and some of the old music Two tribes for example, brings back so many nostalgic memories of the eighties:D

Re: NFL season 2010/2011
 

And "Holding Out For A Hero" for the opening credits and "Rendez-Vous" for the commercial breaks… :D

Re: NFL season 2010/2011
 

Now you all are bringing back some great memories, might even make my team (niners) have a great season again. Ok im desperate.

Great memories, I just hope channel 4 can live up to our great expectations. 1985 was a great year for me the Bears won the Super Bowl and Walter Payton was unstoppable.

Re: NFL season 2010/2011
 

Watching all these clips is making me feel very old.

Re: NFL season 2010/2011
 

I first watch American Football In the 70's when ITV World of Sport showed the super bowl in the era of the Steelers three Super Bowl wins and the steel curtain.
