PromoTheRobot Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 The question is who is producing the telecast? If it's a full Yahoo production, does it matter how people see it? Online, DTV, whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Estro Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 (edited) More people can see it online than DirecTV....Most people have internet....not everyone has DirecTV. What's your reasoning? I think the point is......it should be made available both on the internet and on DirecTV for those that pay the cost Sunday Ticket charges. I have Sunday Ticket. I'd much prefer to walk down my stairs, put the TV on at 9:30 AM and watch the Bills on my 65" HDTV. Instead, I will have to get the game up on my laptop.....hook the laptop up to the t.v. and watch the game at what will surely be a much lower quality picture. I'll also have to deal with all of the interruptions via internet connections, that Yahoo will surely encounter in what is essentially a guinea pig trial for them. Now, for those that don't pay for Sunday Ticket, great, you can watcht he Bills games. For those that plunk down hundred of $'s to see "Every game, Every Sunday", though, not quite fair IMO. Give us both options, don't force me to watch it through Yahoo's live stream, when I pay big bucks to watch it through DirecTV's satellite feed.

uticaclub Posted June 3, 2015 Author Share Posted June 3, 2015 How many bars are open at 9:00 AM on a Sunday ?? In large cities a lot of them, especially if they're a Backers bar.

Could be fun. Have the ladies wear pajamas.... I for one hate direct TV. The only decent thing about it is the football package, and it's unfair that the rest of us have to choose their terrible cable service if we want to watch out of market football. Personally, I usually go to the bars on Sundays too, but I would greatly prefer to watch football all day on Fios at home. Unfortunately, the best case we have is to wait until 2022 for the contract to expire. Unless DTV goes under before then.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
