NFL Can't Show Expat Fans Games They Paid $240 To See
@Elcheecho: Same thing I thought. You can get them cheaper than 240 as well, off ebay. Splitters are cheap. I know a ton of soldiers who are stationed abroad who have buddies back home hook up a sling box for them just so they can watch the games.

I think its a great program, and hope they continue running it.
