    NEW YORK -- "Inside the NFL" has found a new home on Showtime.

    The studio show ended its 31-year run on HBO in February. It will be produced by CBS Sports and NFL Films, they announced Tuesday. CBS owns Showtime.

    The program will air on Wednesdays starting Sept. 10 on the cable channel.

    HBO's been around 31 years? That's depressing.

    I'd rather watch porn. INFL used to be great for highlights, but now they only show five or six games and a 30-minute Peter King segment about something totally unrelated to football.

    I always felt they had some grudge against the panthers. The short segment they'd give us usually focused on the other team. For example, when we won it would be something like.

    "The Rams came out on fire. Despite a this 66 scoring run by Jackson (highlight) and 2 touchdown passes by Bulger (highlight of touchdown passes), it wasn't enough to overcome the Panthers who scratched out a win by a mere 42 points."

    That's true, they definitely need to re-focus on the games themselves vs the stories. Leave the stories/opinions for another show like Costas Now or something.
