Peacock Broadcast

Always welcome Matt

we will probably need subscriptions to all of the major streaming platforms in order to watch games in the near future.. and paying more for it as they keep raising subscription prices.

I think you are correct. However, there has to be a point of diminishing returns. I do have Prime but will not get Peacock or any of the others. There is nothing on those services beside football I would watch. I did switch to YouTube TV and dumped cable. But I will not go with Sunday Ticket. I used to have it, but price became ridiculous especially when I was gone half the year.

But at some point in the not so distance future, people will be tired of useless subscriptions.

more often especially with the pay sites getting dibs on prime games.

If it on the free one you only need to sign up, costs nothing

They did a bills chargers game last year.

Unless you simply refuse to pay, step back and do some analysis of what brings you pleasure versus the greed and haughtiness of these football moguls and realize there are other things.

It is on Premium, but they are offering a discount.

amount of revenue for sports bars and the like. I'd imagine the lobbying efforts to move in this direction are formidable.

at least according to the schedule on BBI, though the last 2 are TBD. I'll be pissed if one of them ends up on Peacock. I'm already paying for Sunday Ticket and Prime.

Peacock, it will also be on local stations for the area?

On the bright side, that would probably mean they weren't having another crappy season.

Friday's game is the only exclusive game on Peacock this season.

and cancel. It costs less about the same as a beer these days. Less than a glass of wine. Truly first world problems having to pay a nominal cost for an out of market game.

You either adapt to the new world or you don't. Obviously if there wasn't money to made from streaming the games this movement wouldn't be happening.

Cable TV is dead.

The one thing that helps consumers from being steamrolled in this situation is that there probably isn't one centralized lobbying force propping up the thousands of neighborhood sports bars that stand to benefit from increased footfall.

And then they’ll get sick of it walk away and NEVER return. Just ask boxing.

I love not having to go grocery shopping anymore, and for some reason they give you Peacock with it.

You can do a 30 day trial of Instacart+ and watch.

Got the house Peacock for $2 a month….

Or the best athletes started going for the big money other sports offered instead of having their faces beat in for a living. The pay increases in other sports killed boxing.

Same boat. IF the Giants should land on Peacock, I hope those here are correct and it would air locally as well, because I'm not paying for Peacock.

And I'd be willing to stream it on Discord for anyone interested.
