Why do you need 6 months of YouTube? The season isn’t 6 months long.

viewership will disagree with you

I'm not even going to argue that this isn't the case. I'm just speaking for me personally, and at the same time I know of many others that have the same line of thinking.

I don't like the way the sport is trending and so I don't really go out of my way to watch games anymore.

Didn't you have to buy games pay-per-view back in the glory days of cable if you wanted to watch every game?

Turning on your tv/tablet and pulling up Netflix/Peacock/Prime is going out of your way?

That's why I love my IPTV service. $10/month and can catch every game.

Do you walk out of stores and restaurants without paying also?

The idea of steaming only the content you wanted was attractive at first, but the the constant addition of ( plus) networks to get what you should be getting with the basic service, has created prices comparable to cable

I said this would become the issue when people first started cutting the cable. It seems like every week a new network has created its own streaming app/service. You'll be buying most everything a la carte before too much longer. The negation and blackout problems that plagued cable for forever have now started hitting all the streaming services.

It is really a question of which headache you want to deal with at this point.

If you're watching every single NFL game, you have more issues than paying for cable or not.

I'm paying for it. Maybe not be 100% legal, but I'm still paying for it.

Does YTTV have exclusive rights to games?

Seems like over half that $850 price tag you posted is YTTV, so I'm not sure why you would need that?

yeah. the OP is bullshite. they added $438 that isn't needed

Will I need a YouTube TV membership to get NFL Sunday Ticket? No. Having a YouTube TV membership is not required. You can purchase NFL Sunday Ticket by itself with YouTube Primetime Channels-no bundling is required.


also the prime games were on twitch for free last year and will most likely be this year also.

If you live in an area where an over the air antenna cant get you the local channels, you do need a YTTV or Hulu or other subscription. The games that are on broadcast channels in your area are blacked out on Sunday Ticket. The big 4p time slot games that Fox and CBS carry nationally and your local team...not available on Sunday Ticket.

Or, i just wouldn’t want to.

I don’t even watch saints games anymore. I pretty much stick to LSU football

I don’t have enough time to devote to watching games all day Sunday for NFL

That’s $50 per game at a bar. Watch with friends. Enjoy. Drink natty lite.
