All About the Superfan Package
DirecTV is marking third quarter of 2008 with a great deal on their NFL Sunday Ticket plan. The regular season for the NFL doesn’t start until September, but training camp starts in late July for most NFL teams, and the pre-season games start in August. Maybe you have passed on the Sunday Ticket deal in the past. If so, now is the time to find the best deals out there, as this is the start of the busy time of year for DirecTV.
Now if you haven’t heard of this tremendous package, here are the details on DirecTV’s NFL Sunday Ticket. Designed as the premium football viewing package, it is designed to give you viewing access to every single NFL game. In most cases, most viewers will see four or five games a week on network television, the Sunday morning and afternoon games, the Sunday Night game, and then Monday night football.
Now if you reside in the area where “your” home team plays, you can usually see your team play on network TV. However, if you don’t live in that market, you would have to make a trip down to the local bar to watch your team’s game. Since Direct TV began the Sunday Ticket package a few years back, you can always see your home team, from the comfort of your own house.
While out of area fans make up a strong base for the NFL Sunday Ticket, there are other fans that need this package as well. Fantasy football enthusiasts have been subscribing to the Sunday Ticket package, as it lets them keep up on their fantasy players at any time. Another group buying up the package is those who may have a little money on NFL games. They love the DirecTV Sunday Ticket as it lets them keep up on who covers the spread.
What about price? In past years, the NFL Sunday ticket package cost has been around $250 per season, billed over 4 monthly installments. This year’s price for existing DirecTV subscribers will be almost $300 dollars. Those who sign up in time get a $20 break on the price.
New DirecTV customers can get a great deal on the Sunday Ticket. Current specials bill the same price $74.99 per month for 4 months, with a great start up bonus. New customers signing up for NFL Ticket can get the Direct TV Premier bundle free for 4 months. If you want the Superfan package add on though, you will have to pay an extra $100 for HD. This is DirecTV’s top end package, with 265 stations, 35 sports stations, and also free movie channels.
Free DVR service is also included and a DirecTV DVR upgrade rounds out this great offer on dish TV service.
