So is that why they pay federal, state, and local taxes, and are a registered LLC, describing exactly the service I described?
Sorry. You loose.
It costs as little as $40 to register an LLC…people do this all the time for BS companies. It does nothing to legitimize what they are doing, the rights holders have to bring the violation to a court.-

20 years ago it was more expensive in real dollars to watch every NFL game. The only way to do that was to subscribe to DirecTV, which forced you into 12 or 24 month contracts to get a reasonable price, then they’d take a Sunday ticket price on top of that. Paying for TV for an entire year when you only want to watch sept - Jan was robbery.
when ESPn flagship launches this year, the biggest part of this bill is now gone (YTTV), since you don’t need a huge channel package just to watch the few MNF games that aren’t simulcast on ABC. This means 2025 will be the cheapest it has ever been to watch every NFL game.

Your app definitely does not have a distribution license in the USA for all of that content. It’s definitely not legal, but I don’t think you paying them is illegal; they are the ones committing the crime. So the worst that happens to you if the app goes poof one day and you gotta pay YouTube/espn/amazon/nbc/Netflix like all the rest of us…-

Yeah. Also like…if they could give us a gimme game for the “last one ever at Highmark”, that would be great. Wanna go out on a winning note!
The gimme will be the AFCCG 🍻-

It’s been a while different era in the NHL since the rules changes in the mid-oughts that opened up scoring so much more than the heavily defensive tilts when Gretzky played.
Huh? NHL goals per game were an all-time high of 4.01 in ‘81-‘82, the year Gretzky had record 92 goals. The bulk of his career was >3.5 gpg.
Ovi’s entire career has been between 2.65 and 3.14 gpg. He played in a way more defensive league than Gretzky, with better goalies and the neutral zone trap.-

Super Bowl vs the Lions:
310 Passing Yards
3 Passing Touchdowns
2 Interceptions
90 Rushing Yards
2 Rushing Touchdowns
Bills FINALLY gets over the hump winning 31-21 and Josh Allen wins his first ring!
The big question here is how Bass is still on the team when he misses 4 XPs in a dome Super Bowl…-

There's the rub. A guy can have a pretty unimpressive career, win two games, and get into the HOF? There's a lot of people who think so, but I think that's just BS. Teams win SBs, not QBs.
….yes? He was Super Bowl MVP in 12.5% of his NFL seasons. That’s not “unimpressive”, it’s elite. I’m not an Eli Manning fan, but the dude showed up in the absolute biggest moments. -

Completely agree with your conclusions. Eli Manning was a mediocre QB over the duration of a highly inconsistent career. Absolutely does not belong in the company of the great ones. The Giants won two SBs with him as QB, big deal.
Big deal? Dude was Super Bowl MVP twice. Only 5 other players have ever done that. IMO he just didn’t get it this year to protect the “first ballot” status for people like Brady and Mahomes. A 2x Super Bowl MVP is a lock for the HOF.-

Cincy’ D stinks tho. Josh would be able to score at will against them. Denver has an elite D. If they get up early and get their run game going it will be bad news for us .
Denver doesn’t have a run game -

The Broncos are not losing to the KC backups. it’s not happening.
https://www.nfl.com/games/steelers-at-bills-2004-reg-17It’s the same scenario. Win and in while the 1-seed rests everyone, and the plucky upstart can’t get it done. (15-1 1-seed won the SB that year too 🤮)

My guess is that he's questionable all week. But I will be shocked if he doesn't start on Sunday.
I'd bet my 401k he doesn't play on Sunday
Chiefs play on Saturday this week

Not to be a hater or anything (I’m in the camp that says any replacement will be worse), but his 11th win last year came in week 18. The rest of those guys did it with a 16-game season (or less).

IMO, the run D was not good against NYJ, IND or the 2nd MIA game.
3-0 in those ones…. -

Score more points in the first half so teams need to abandon the run
This is the answer. Make them game plan to run, then the OC panics after we are up by 2 scores. This works when your offense puts up 30+ per game.-

Is JAs contract really a contributor? It comes from the cap like all the other players compensation. I know his is the highest but if you equally divided the cap spending by each player it would be the same thing. The difference is cash for a bonus that can drive one year over the cap but over time you have to have years with less cash to balance it out.
They have to put the guaranteedmoney in escrow on signing. Even billionaires don’t tend to have $150m lying around to write a check with, they need some liquidity.

Lot of folks here with big opinions on “venture capital”. VC has nothing at all to do with the NFL.
While it’s all “private equity”, most of the boogeymen folks are commenting on are doing leveraged buyouts. This also has nothing at all to do with the NFL.
This is just a “growth equity” investment. It’s Terry taking some $$ of the table (to help with the stadium and JA’s next contract). He gives up nothing more than a few extra seats in the new stadium’s owners suite.

Easy to spin it that way given Netflix is the largest streaming service in the world with about 280 million subscribers. To suppose half of them watched the fight tonight, then yeah, it be what you’re proclaiming….but, I doubt half, or anywhere near that did.
…not spinning here. Of course they didn’t get half their subs, but they did beat Fox’s NFC CG 59.7m. It’s far and away the most watched boxing match since the rumble in the jungle. -

Tonight further proved how irrelevant boxing has become.
No one has more aptly reflected, and exploited, the “bum of the month club” boxing idiom than Paul.
It’ll take a bit for the numbers to come out, but so far - this was the largest live stream ever in history, and crushed the viewership of the AFC and NFC championship games from this past January. It will end 2024 as second only to the Super Bowl as the most watched TV event.Not sure how that proves boxing is irrelevant….

So… Bass was fine on Sunday. He’s not great, but 80% and we aren’t making 4th down decisions because of him yet…

No way. 20%, tops.
Agreed, tops. It was probably somewhere between 10-15%. We definitely showed up, but didn’t make a dent until the 3rd quarter when the Seahawks fans started to leave.I was in the 200’s on the Bills sideline and there were ~10 bills fans in my row
and the two in front and behind me(out of 100 seats). The 100s level seemed to have a lot more Bills fans, but not a majority. Don’t get me wrong, it was a great showing and by the 4th quarter it was mostly us left, but the 50/50 talk is very inflated.

I was out there. Was an incredible time. I was really looking forward to experiencing the atmosphere inside Lumen Field and was excited to see how loud it can get but the Seahawks fans were a big dud. Don't get me wrong all of the Seattle fans I encountered over the weekend were super friendly and good people but I was talking to a local and he said the demeanor of Seahawks fans has changed a lot in the last decade. He said the crowds there have really quieted down over the last few seasons. I thought the stadium was awesome though, and I am sure the design helped out in the noise department even when the Seahawks were much better. It would be insane to see what that stadium packed full of Bills fans could sound like.
It was pretty loud the first two Bills drives….i don’t think there’s any “piping in” of noise, the stadium is just designed to reflect noise more than any other. The Seahawks fans were very vocal in the first half…then they all got stuck waiting for beer and we had an empty stadium for the first drive of the 3rd quarter. After that the game was over, so if it’s anyone’s fault it was the slow concession lines😂 -
Do you mean “over the whole 8 games”, or “right now”? It’s Keon Coleman right now.

Network pricing to watch all NFL games in 2025

I mean Kentucky is $40: https://www.sos.ky.gov/bus/business-filings/Pages/Fees.aspx . (Companies don't choose Delaware because filing fees are cheap, they chose it due to the legal and tax climate there.) But regardless of how much any state costs, filing for an LLC is a very tiny cost for your IPTV service, and has no bearing on whether the business they conduct is legal or not.
