    If your cable company hasn't offered NFL Network so far, keep an eye out, as the league's station and the National Cable Television Cooperative are opening it and NFL Redzone up to the co-op's members. The group claims 17 of the 20 largest cable companies in the country as it's members (including Suddenlink, Cablevision, Cox, GCI and more -- but not Time Warner), so while it's not a straight shot to seeing this channel in your guide, the option is out there so call your provider if you're interested.

    Served by one of the National Cable Television Cooperative's 1,100+ carriers? There may be some new high definition stations popping up in your channel lineup soon, with a new deal inked providing access to Disney's ABC Family HD, Disney Channel HD and Toon Disney HD networks, plus ESPN HD, ESPNU HD, ESPN2 HD and ESPNews HD. As always, bottlenecks like bandwidth can always be a hurdle, but with a carriage deal in place small & medium sized cable ops should have these channels up and running sooner rather than later.
