Future upgrades to DirecTV?
I just flew from IAH to FLL and I loved the new DirecTV but is there any word on possible upgrades to the system? I couldn't watch the British Open as DirecTV doesn't have the "local" stations -- ie ABC which carried the BO.
Also, I am certain that we won't get any football games comes September.
I was in F and it was free, but I would gladly pay the $6.00 (or even $10.) to catch a football game on an upcoming flight.

I wouldn't bet on it. LiveTV hasn't had ABC since its inception many years ago. They do carry some of the other networks, IIRC, but not ABC.
