New: The Pelicans will continue their partnership with Bally Sports, I am told. Five-year agreement with flexibility. Expect Bally Sports+, a DTC streamer, to roll out in New Orleans this fall.

Yeah.

You just have to pay like 25 dollars a month for their app, where you get nothing else with it.

That sucks. Hoping we get a ton of prime-time games.

Yup, and it’s only for people in NOLA, and you get nothing else. Really fricking shitty move by the team.

They hope you'll get a gambling addiction with it.

I honestly don't think there are any good options out there. We're in a place in time where RSNs are obsolete, but NBA/MLB/NHL are forced to stick with them to placate ESPN's and TNT's fears of direct-to-consumer distribution models.

I have DirectTV Stream and it comes with Bally's but man I was hoping they would go back to Fox so I could go back to Hulu Live.

There's no way in the world I'd pay $30 for just their crap service. I can't even imagine how bad their streaming app is. Just pay $45 more for DirectTV Stream and get a full lineup of TV.

I have DirectTV stream as well, got it VERY early on when it was ATTNow and got a great deal grandfathered in.

I love it.

I would like to know what "flexibility" the Pels have. Can they opt out at any time? After three years?

I cut the cord a number of years ago and it's far and away the worst app I've come across.
