Since I don't have the NFL Network, I was psyched that Channel 11 bought the rights to last night's Jets-Patriots game.  WPIX rides to the rescue one more time with great sports programming.  The NFL promotes its Network as must see TV but it's hard to get in cable plans because it's on the Dish Network.  You have to have a Dish and most buildings in the City don't allow Dishes.  Or you have to buy the NFL Ticket TV plan.  Don't expect any help from the cable companies.  That's the Catch 22.  It's time for the SATT Army to take action by contacting your local elected officials.  Many thanks in advance for contacting your representatives and bringing justice to long suffering football fans.

Anyhoo, what a game!  The Jets took a 24-6 lead in the first half and were about to run the Patriots out of their own stadium.  But, the Jets let the Patriots back in the game with a late first half touchdown.  The Patriots chipped away in the second half and tied the game late in regulation at 31.

The Jets won the coin toss in overtime and drove down the field.  Brett Favre played a flawless game and led the Jets to the winning field goal.  I predicted a Jets victory and was really happy about that.  More importantly, the Patriots lost.  The Jets are in first place and the Patriots aren't.  Life is good, touch wood.
