Yeah I wish there was one too, but I really wish there was one for the NCAA.

I would bet that the NFL will be coming out with an app similar to what the MLB did.

Doubt this will happen. The NFL has an exclusive deal with Sprint.

Does an NFL APP exist similar to MLB at Bat? I can't believe MLB has it and the NFL doesn't.

The MLB was a waste of 5 bux. Gimme some streaming live audio....sumthin. The video quality is terrible. Are they filming games for iPhone video with cameras from the 70s???

I was really pleased with MLB at bat. the quality was perfect on 3G and wifi. Edge sucked, but whatever. Anyway, the best thing i've found for football is Espn's iphone optimized site.

Exactly. As much as I'd want one, it doesn't look like we have a shot at an NFL official or an ESPN one. Sprint has exclusivity with both the NFL and ESPN. Our best hope for a high end application for the NFL would probably be with CBS Sportsline or Fox Sports.

As many have said, Sportstacular is a great app so far. I also just got an email from them saying that they have an application in development specific for fantasy sports, but unfortunately it won't be ready until next season.

Higher quality = more data to stream/download = higher costs to site and carrier.

It is frustrating that other countries (non-US) are walking around watching TV on their phones as the rule, not the exception. :mad:
