Default NFL Network

The NFL Network was supposed to come Sirius on Draft Day. Well, Draft Day is a week and a half away and sirius.com has nothing on the site referring to what stream to tune into or info about NFL Network programming. It just says to expect a full slate of game broadcast this fall. Does anyone know more about the debut of the NFL Network on Sirius?! Thanks!!

GMU, we've seen post by SiriusRon here that indicate that the NFL Network guys will be providing Draft Coverage this weekend (but no details on the where and when). He also said that the 24/7 coverage would not begin then, but would "this summer".

Never be surprised when there is a lack of announcement on the webpage. I'd recommend tuning in Preview on Friday and Saturday.

Teases are running as promos on CNN Headline News on Sirius.

That something BIG with the NFL is happening SOON on Sirius...and that even THEY don't know when.

(Yeah, right)

They say something will be happening with the NFL later this month. Why not just provide a date?

Thanks man! That is great news! I was worried that I would have to rush home after work to get to a TV with the NFL Network. Now I can hear the schedule show on the way home.
