NFL Network (NFLN) is an American television specialty channel owned and operated by the National Football League (NFL). It was launched November 4, 2003, only eight months after the league's 32 team owners voted unanimously to approve its formation. The league invested $100 million to fund the network's operations. The NFL Network works from studios in Culver City, California, near Los Angeles, and broadcasts their worldwide feed from Crawford Communications in Atlanta, GA.
