This will be the first game I miss in 27 years. Thanks NFL

Vehicles, prescription drugs and beer. 
 

That’s what we get during NFL games. 
 

Never once has a commercial had a thing to do with any of my purchases.  

Not if you bundle them.

It's not 1950 anymore where every job is 9-5

Oh, yeah.

 

Business is king. Of course I'm paying for it at the bar, so I can show it there.

 

ROI is a thing, and it's not lost on me.

 

It's separate, though. I don't want to sit in the bar. I want to watch at home where I already pay for several services that should deliver this game.

Just a reminder to all the responses with “thoughts and prayers” that OP already has a Peacock subscription. He owns two restaurants, one of them a Bills Backer Bar.

 

Not only can he watch the game, he will, and he’ll likely make a profit off of it. But OP also cannot figure out how to log in at home either. Sooo…there’s that. 
 

If we want to have a discussion about streaming that’s cool. But OP is most definitely not operating in good faith here.

I smashed my TV in your honor

[RebelBill]

Come to Mississippi and you can watch it at my house.

[Einstein]

Maybe im just a mallard, but I give the NFL and its partners what they want.

 

Im not missing a game.

 

Life is too short.

[teef]

if anyone want to call me, i'll just give you a play by play over the phone.  i'll probably be ordering instacart online too just to be a jerk.

Remember….a wild card playoff game game is supposed to be a peasuck stream only game.  In your trial don’t be quick to cancel.

PPV Super Bowls are right around the corner, I'm afraid 

I doubt that, I think the Super Bowl going to PPV would dramatically reduce viewership and take away some of the “cultural event” aspect that adds value to the NFL’s brand. Not to mention piracy would shoot up if that were to happen.

some of those commercials are funny, especially the one where Andy Reid is drawing on players faces while they sleep

I noticed the new one, Most Valuable Bundler, right after Mahomes throws the confetti, they cut back to Andy and he starts to crack a smile right before they cut the camera.

Drive to Batavia and watch from some place there. They should be in the WGRZ broadcast area. I used to drive 30-40 miles  one way every week to watch the games with the San JoseBills Backers when I lived in CA.

I would take BART into San Francisco from Walnut Creek to watch the Bills at the Bills backers bar. Good times

And then what station would you be watching on?

There are no stations on YTTV... its strange at first, but it KNOWS what you want to watch. Kinda scary. Either way, I got the sunday ticket for like 99 bucks... every game, no matter what. 

In this case, you'd have to find the TV map for the game, figure out a zip code that has the game being showed, and feed your VPN that location and then tell YTTV that's where you are. Should work.

Can you order me 8 double cheeseburgers from McDonald’s?  It will take me awhile but I will get all 8 finished before the end of the game.

This is the way.  Can someone tell me where this will be on locally?  I use PIA as a VPN and can pop out in a bunch of places

 

Also, agreed on YTTV, at first i found it annoying, you have to dig to get the traditional cable grid, but reality is it knows that I watch CBS local news in the AM, and has that teed up, and that I watch college football on saturdays, and has that teed up, then NFL on Sunday.

 

also, i was just looking at Peacock's site as a plan B.  wowza they have some crap programming.  I mean like seriously.  I think Cocaine Bear is the best movie on there, and that was laughably terrible.  I guess there's some sitcoms and things but that doesnt feel like something that should cost money, we watched that garbage because it was on TV not because it was compelling.  Anyway, i vote for them to be amongst the first of the services to get swallowed up by one of the others so people can continue watching such classics as LOVE ISLAND GAMES and THE GENTLE ART OF SWEDISH DEATH CLEANING

You're right, I expect, but never underestimate the ability of people to make terrible decisions in the name of greed

False

 

they give you peacock but you still won't be able to see the game as you don't get a paid sub to it. You'll still have to sub

 

sincerely,

 

Comcrap customer

 

I guess it was different when I got Xfinity about 1.5 years ago—I’ve been able to see whatever NFL games are streaming on the free sub for peacock that they gave me at the time. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Check your bill. They ended free Peacock awhile ago now.
