I catch CBS, ABC, NBC, FOX with my hd antenna and use espn app with a borrowed login.
This is probably the best way to achieve what you want.
You could also get Raspberry Pie or hack a Fire Stick. You can get the equivalent to NFL Sunday Ticket and ESPN3 through that.

Many of the cord cutters won't admit that they wouldn't be able to cut the cord without having access to someone else's account
I'll admit it
without using my parents login info for ESPN, I'd probably still be paying for cable

My cable bundle is around $240 a month but can get up to around $325 if I don't threaten to cancel. I would feel like a caveman without it. If it's that expensive to you maybe you should find a second job or ask for a raise. I bet you're another broke arse republican
Sorry for not being addicted to TV

Mohu Leaf for HD major networks (this gets you every CBS/FOX/NBC NFL games. Also gets you any NCAA game on the major networks (LSU's biggest games for instance are always on CBS)
For ESPN/SECn games, get a provider login or get slingtv for roku

If only there was a board for this with a 17 page long thread...

Mohu/Sling - Easiest to get going.
Mohu Leaf HD Antanae gets me - ABC, CBS, Fox, NBC, and about 12 others.
Sling TV through Roku Gets Me - ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU, SEC Network, About 15 more (A&E, Food, Travel, History, etc..)
Total Investment - $120 (Roku $49 half off and Leaf 70)
Total Monthly Bill - $20 flat. Took me about 2 hours to get everything up and running including the trip to Best Buy for the Leaf.
Living out of La I miss a few Saints games but I can watch on computer.

DVR?

I use the app. The delay only borrows me during college football, because I have friends texting me. But...I survive.

maybe you should get a hobby outside of watching tv?

Check out my setup under the cord cutters thread. I use a clearstream 4V, pick up about 35 channels with it connected to a Tivo Roamio for DVR. FireTV with Kodi installed using IPTVVue for a Guide and Channel Pear with other Repositories to pull the streams.
I don't need anyones login info to watch everything I was watching before in full HD with a guide and DVR.

This.
Not only do I enjoy not spending $120/month on freaking TV/internet.
But my wife and I read at night and actually talk to each other. Much better than her wasting time on Kardashian trash and me on whatever else I watched. I use the ESPN log in to watch games I care about, but don't watch Around the Horn, PTI, etc etc.

DVR is my next research/purchase.... If youve heard and recommendations let me know. Probably sometime this fall.

fricking hippie cord cutters. You guys are like Ham Radio operators trying to replace a cell phone then bothering me in the food stamp line to borrow my obamaphone so you can call your mother 3 states away.
you can tell who the people who havent cut the cord are because they have a very angry tone all the time when it comes to this conversation
probably because of the dick that their cable company still has lodged in their anus

If you have SEC Network, then your bill is $25, not $20
