Root Just a quick question guys...

LOL, I live here in Indy, but I'll be watching from home...wish the Colts were going... :mad: :( :p :)

I thought that I heard that the NFL was going to be streaming it live.

edit: yep! NFL.com news: NFL announces Super Bowl XLVI first to be streamed live online

2nd edit: nice touch adding "Prevail" in the post...(that way, this thread can stay here in the Prevail section and not get moved to the Lounge, wink-wink :))...

Lol thanks for allowing it scary. I thought the colts would have done Bette than they did this year but I'm so proud of my saints. I think they will pull it off. And about the streaming.. do you Need flash or something of that nature? Or have to buy this streaming package or something? I'm rarely around a TV or comp so my PREVAIL comes in handy. ;)

No problem...just keep sprinkling a proper Prevail reference in here and there ;).

Since the website says "...will be available on the league's and network's websites and through Verizon's NFL Mobile app.", I'm guessing a browser and flash should take care of it.

Mobile viewing on the Prevail (see what I did there? :)) should be helpful for those folks stuck at work and/or away from a big screen (like the guy on the commercial who is on a date and keeps checking the game on his phone (i.e., "the summoner" guy, LOL)).

Cheers!

Like cowboy said, don't you think there will be an issue with it running with boost since Verizon has its talons in it?

Oh... and Prevail Prevail Prevail. :) I too make a funny, sir..
If you watch it using the web browser(it may need flash to do so but lucky us the Prevail has flash available) boost/sprint could not do anything to stop it.
And since boost is unlimited data they would not charge you more.

Streaming over the browser using Wi-Fi would work, but with me, I have to work and our plants Wi-Fi is encrypted so it's going to be slow going with 3g.
Verizon's N.F.L. app is also blocked from our use. The only N.F.L. app available is the "official" one, but it doesn't support streaming.
I'll see if I can go into my market emulator and see if I can get the Vzw app to pop up.

Just have to find the right person to get the PW from.

I take it that at work you are not getting 1mb down speeds?
I believe you could stream over 3g if you had close to the 1mb down marker.


Nope, not even close to it. The building was built back in the 20's and is like a fortress, plus there is so much interference from the machines that at times its like an E.M.P. went off.

that always sucks
as I said before I have that problem at home if comcast cable goes out, and they dont always have the best rep I dont have reliable backup.


At home I get good download speeds on 3g and Wifi. The only issue that I had before my computer died was a few router issues, but usually my Charter speeds were decent.


Edit: I have looked high and low for the Verizon N.F.L. .apk just to be able to see if it can be side loaded. Market Enabler didn't work, but I'll try Rapidshare or Media Share.

Man I really don't like that kid.. I'm about to start a search and se if I can find anything to help me stream tho.


I was always told that if you can't say anything good about someone then don't say anything at all, but it's getting harder and harder to deal with it...

The person needs whimsical theme music whenever they enter into a thread just to serve as warning to everybody....

Now back to the subject at hand...

I'm still trying to find the Verizon N.F.L. app.

I guess scary laid the smack down on our forum. Lol

No luck on finding the apk huh? Have you tried media fire?

Everytime I see Thomas pop up I see the little Guy from labrynth.. You know the one that hepatitis the girl? Lol

I guess you're about my age to remember that movie.... LOL!!!!!!!

I'm getting ready to search it right now. It's hard to find it without a p.c. I'm multitasking trying to get my computer fixed, and look for that at the same time. I forgot my administrator password on Windows 7, so it's slow going.....
D OH!!!!!!!!

No good about your password. I don't know how to figure that out.

I got the hardrive fixed, but apparently my Ex changed the Adm account to her before I booted her. She disabled all of the antivirus, and messed it up bad... Trojans galore... She was irritated that I busted her cheating on F.B.!!!!! Good riddance, but she messed up my ROM experiments.....
