It's on ABC. How do you not have a cheapo digital antenna at this point?

DirecTV is in a dispute with some media provider every year around the time football season start. Last year it was Nexstar, which owns a lot of local stations (in my case, my local CBS station). At some point DirecTV can’t just act blameless anymore when they are the common denominator.

F Disney. I have DirectTV Stream. Great service. I'm on their side in this dispute. F Disney. Maybe don't put out crappy woke movies and you won't be losing money that you try to recoup on the backs of sports fans.

Watching on ESPN+ anyways.

I’m on the side of me being able to watch live sports. They need to figure this out, and soon.

So you’re watching on the paid Disney service?

I get it with my Verizon service. Doesn't cost me anything extra.

They started showing the commercials yesterday to contact them if you wanted to keep it. In the past I feel like those were aired weeks before. Had no idea it was this close

Yeah I knew it was coming just not when. Funny how the contract expires at 6pm and not say midnight

Your affiliate probably isn’t owned by Disney.

Yeah obviously strategic on ESPN/Disney’s part. They were probably debating whether to do it for this game or MNF

DirecTV stream is a great service, but it’s not when I can’t watch sports, which is like the only thing I watch.

I saw some during the Miami UF game I’m pretty sure. I didn’t watch the Arizona game and I know I saw them yesterday (before the A&M game)
