Member Center:
PHILADELPHIA (AP) -- Comcast Corp. will continue carrying the NFL Network even after their contract expires at midnight, as negotiations continue.
Comcast was set to pull the plug on the football network starting Friday.
"Comcast and the NFL are engaged in productive discussions toward a new agreement for NFL Network carriage on Comcast," the cable TV operator said in a statement.
Comcast and the National Football League are in a court battle over Comcast's decision to put the NFL-owned channel in a premium sports tier rather than in a lesser-priced service package that has more viewers.
