Thx for being ESPN. Most of southeastern and south central Louisiana is without cable. Despite paying for the game we can’t see it! Great move ESPN! Much appreciated.

What exactly do you think they should have done differently? If you don't have cable, you can't watch anything on the ESPN family of channels anyway. At least this way you could watch if you had separate internet service.

ESPN could give access to one NOLA and one Btr station. What a PR move.
