Verizon promotes cool football thing that nobody in Boston can access
By adamg on Fri, 09/11/2009 - 9:53am
Verizon reports subscribers to its RedZone football channel on FiOS can now get on-screen alerts whenever a particular team is within its opponent's 20-yard line - so they can continue to watch Lifetime movies or All About Jim reruns without worrying about missing some scoring action.
Of course, residents of New England's largest city can't rush to take advantage of this, since FiOS isn't offered here.

I noticed it's available on RCN. But I think you have to pay extra for it.
Yeah
I just saw the new channel on my lineup last night, but when I flipped to it, it told me to call them to sign up. I'm considering seeing how much it'll cost. If I do, I'll post here unless someone beats me to it.
