Which was great because that's about all it's worth. Anyways, it's dumb that you need access to 7 different streaming services to watch all the games you wanna see. But hey. What can you do. Agree completely. There will be fans tired of this and lose viewers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But stop making us have to sign up for 17 different things to watch the out of market team we like. It’s a Bad customer experience I’ve been paying full freight for Sunday Ticket forever. It’s not just the money to me. I get free Peacock now to watch Dan Patrick in the morning. They keep trying to get me to sign up and pay for more. It’s annoying. Now they want me to do some friggin’ update which is not as simple as it sounds, and I’m just tired of keeping it all up to date. I had a good friend who never watched another NFL game after they went on strike. It’s not always about money and the other costs to watch. I’m not ready to turn away yet, but if there is a point where they annoy me by making it hard to watch one Bills game, or a playoff game, they might not just lose me for that game. They may lose me entirely. I can be a stubborn SOB. They need to tread a bit more lightly and gradually, IMO. “Kids” don’t mind this stuff as much as the older folks, and we tend to have more money, so there’s that to consider. 1 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pays over $600 a month to see a trainer 3 times a week at his main gym, and then joined a second gym for $50 a month (which he doesn't like) just to use the trainer's services (since he switched his service to a new location). He also just bought a $3,000 e-bike which he never uses. But he balked at paying $5 more a month (just $35) for a main gym which he admits is better since he pays only $25 now. WTF? I’m trying to count the number of gyms we have joined and quit since moving to Atlanta, but the number escapes me. Now I’m breaking new ground. I’m considering rejoining a gym we’ve already quit once. They have good food. 😋 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oddly enough, I'd bet some of the same people are complaining about paying for Peacock for about the same price as a Big Mac. wait till people pay thousands of dollars just to be able to pay thousands more for tickets to Bills games 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s like a regular football game on 17 espressos. Since the bills are good and have popular players I’d bet they are on a lot.

Buffalo_Stampede Posted May 16, 2023 Share Posted May 16, 2023 Whatever increases the salary cap. I’m good with NFL games exclusively on Food Network app if it helps us sign a WR2 next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoMAn Posted May 16, 2023 Share Posted May 16, 2023 Assume that Peacock will only be necessary for out of market cities. I'd think that the 2 participant cities local networks will bid for the local broadcast as they do for preseason and other streaming games. Free trial or worse case scenario, pay $5 an cancel - big deal. My concern is not the current cost but rather how this escalates in coming years once they've gotten smart TVs or firesticks in every house and we become slaves to these viewing habits. Will we start to get gauged for a single-month of service to incentivize us to get 3, 4, or 5 month bundles? I can see that happening. Will the $72/month YoutubeTV fee inch it's way towards $140/month once they wrangle a few million subscribers more than they have now? Count on it. At that point we're almost back to the pre-cut the cord days. I'm keeping Directv. At least they have actual humans to talk and negotiate with. $60/month for a fairly comprehensive package with HBO and Max. Luckily, at least 10-13 regular season games are just about guaranteed in this market. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFanSD Posted May 16, 2023 Share Posted May 16, 2023 I'll pirate this if the Bills are on and just skip it otherwise. Happy to give YouTube my money for the Ticket, but I'm not interested in getting nickel and dimed for random one-offs here and there. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fleezoid Posted May 16, 2023 Share Posted May 16, 2023 I will never, ever, ever, ever, ever pay for a streaming service to watch football. If it's not on my TV, I go to the bar. If the bar doesn't have it. I ain't watching it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicken Boo Posted May 16, 2023 Share Posted May 16, 2023 Yeah, having all these streaming services is tiresome. Thankfully in this case I already have Peacock for MX and 80s-90s wrasslin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
