Verizon promotes cool football thing that nobody in Boston can access

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.

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.
