First, sorry about the format of my last post. I tried to be creative with the font and it threw everything off for those without the font.
BUT, check out the greatest invention of our time... the Slingbox. Of course, there may be other inventions- like the wheel, electricity, and the lightbulb- that might rank ahead of slingbox in the grand scheme of things, but it's pretty great.
I have to do some research but this could solve all my football woes. Maybe you've heard of it, but if you hook it up to your TV and the internet, you can relay the TV signal to your computer. That means I can watch TV channels in America on my computer anywhere in the world! AMAZING! It's a little pricey up front ($159 on Amazon) but there are no monthly fees. Then I can stop paying for NASN which might not even show NFL and I could watch all the Bengals games. Plus I can watch the current seasons of 24 and Grey's Anatomy.
It's even compatible with DVR and TiVo so I can watch recorded programs. Even better for those night games that are in the middle of the night here. Now I just have to get the buy in of someone [who loves me and would never want to let me down] in the states who will hook up the box for me. The installation seems pretty easy so it should be simple to hook it up (right Dad?). And I don't think it would interfere with someone watching the actual TV if I wanted to watch something different on the computer.
Thanks for the find Mike!

I'd heard a bit about this, but I didn't know it worked internationally. I hope you can figure out how it goes and enjoy some Bengals games!
Of all the electronic toys available, I really want this. It would rock if it could work out.
