Ooh wasn't expecting to find someone so fast and a girl nonetheless... how cool. Although I can't say that I am happy to hear you are a Steelers fan... they are the Bengals' biggest rival. I follow college football as well.... I am an Ohio State Buckeyes fan. I guess I need to get used to watching NFL and college football games at night now.

What is SA TV? I actually have a slingbox which transmits my satellite Tv from the states to my computer so I can watch all NFL and college footbal games.

Yes its good to be a Bengals fan these days. I went through the losingt years but now with Carson Palmer and Chad Johnson things are looking bright.

OOH, LOVE THE JETS TOO!!!

Need to check into the slingbox, and need to have access to more football. Last year was totally depressing here knowing all of the games we were missing.....even superbowl. Showtime had advertisements regarding SuperBowl, and did not show.....................real bummer.

SA is South African TV. Kind of illegal.................

It is actually something that you can connect to a receiver and watch whatever it shows anywhere in the world. So you would need to get a sling box and have someone back in the states connect it to their satellite box and then you could watch it over here. Check out the website for more information.

Yes the sling box is the world's latest greatest invention. Not sure I could have moved here without it. I can watch my TV from the states all the way here in Dubai and even set my TIVO to record things since the time difference affects when I would want to watch things. Feel free to contact me anytime.

I'm more into NCAA football... SEC to be precise :) UGA Bulldogs is my team in college football, and it's the Atlanta Falcons in the NFL. Also like the Titans.
