For you blokes across the pond that want to watch actual football after enduring that Jets/Dolphins game in London, the game will be available on NFL Game Pass. (Hat tip to NFL UK for the info.) If you're part of our men and women serving overseas, you're in luck this week! The game will be carried on the Sports channel of the American Forces Network.
Radio Info
If you're going to be in your car or you'd just rather listen to the baritone homerisms of Paul Allen and Pete Bercich for the game, you can find a complete list of Vikings Radio Network affiliates here. If you're on satellite radio the game can be found on Sirius Channel 113. If you're on XM, you'll only be able to get the Denver home feed on XM 225. However, if you're using the SiriusXM online app, you can get the Vikings feed on their permanent home, Channel 817.
Referee Info
According to Football Zebras, the referee crew for the game will be headed by Walt Coleman, a longtime NFL referee who is probably most famous for refereeing the "Tuck Rule" game back in 2002.
Streaming Info
Here is your weekly reminder about the legal streaming of NFL games. It's the part where we remind you that you should NOT promote illegal streaming sites in any way, shape, or form on Daily Norseman. And just because I love it so much, we're including MTweedt70's Dr. Seuss-like diatribe about streaming again:
I will not promote illegal streams,
I will not put them in a meme.I will not post them from my car,
I will not mention them in a bar.I will not use them while riding a stallion,
I will not use them to avoid Paul Allen. (well... maybe sometimes)I will not link to them in a fan post,
I will not share them while eating my toast.I will not provide them in the comments,
I would not do it in a Canadian province.I would not do it in the U.S. of A,
I will not do it anytime of day.I will not post them here,
I will not post them there,
I will not post them anywhere!I will not promote illegal streams,
Lest I be banned and get my ass reamed.
That should be all the information you need to be able to follow along with all the action in Week 4. The Open Thread should be up and ready to go approximately an hour before kickoff.
