Around the League

[D-train]

A buddy of mine is a DC attorney, working somehow on a Ted Cruz Congressional subcommittee that is investigating the proliferation of the NFL across so many platforms - and how it is bad for the consumer as the NFL has a monopoly on - well, NFL games. It's interesting it has actually reached this level of discussion - I was able to submit 2 questions for the senators to address - it was pretty cool. WHo knows it this will go anywhere, but it is intereresting that it is supposedly really being looked into. I guess the complaint is you can't spread your games out across 15 different platforms and expect the consumer to be be able to follow it. Who all has games? ABC, NBC, CBS, Amazon, Netflix, ESPN, Peacock, Fox, NFL Network, those are what I know of for sure.

I was nodding along in agreement yesterday while reading this and then comes today with a pretty decent
game going on between Houston and the Chargers - followed by a not as great game of Ravens vs. Pakers and I can't
watch either one because I don't have NFL network and Peacock respectively. College football is going down the
shitter, IMO, as a result of this sort of BS and now the NFL is headed this direction too.

Fuck Roger Goodell. What an absolute douche bag to let this national treasure fall to this shit. Elitest cocksukers.

I have NFL network on Youtube TV and the broadcast is complete Dogshit. 40 years ago I could have just turned on the TV and watched the game but it is like we have gone backwards 40 years instead of forward. The picture is totally choppy and is like one of those old cartoon books where you flip the pages to simulate movement. Just unbelievable bad.

The Netflix broadcast is awful- Packed with unavoidable commercials, non stop talking regarding zero about the players and the actual game- A 20 minute dubbed in interview during live play with Emmett Smith- God its a joke

It's like the games on Prime. These streams just suck. No pause, no skipping commercials, sometimes a shit signal. I get free Peacock and Prime. I suppose there will be a few more of those games in the next couple weeks. Are there any more Netflix or NFL Network games still ahead? Just a hose-a-paloooza lol.

It's gotten far too stupid and greedy. Jeezus...NINE platforms for NFL Games you listed, a bunch of them you have to pay for, and I thought I saw one listed for USA Network also. Maybe BET Black Entertainment Network can get the Super Bowl and The Hallmark Channel can grab a Wild Card game.

Maybe you all already knew this, but to add insult to injury, I found out today that these two games that
I could not watch were "flexed" to Saturday for these streaming services I do not have. So, they did this on purpose.
Not personally to me, lol, but you get what I mean. So, I'm going out a limb and saying when Goodell sold the
rights to have NFL games on 12/27, he did so promising they would be good games. Netflix will take note and make
sure they get this deal next year. Fuck you Goodell.

stream it here - I do this for most seahawk games as very few are shown down here. The third option is what I usually have the best luck with - it can be glitchy and twitchy - like a meth head - but the shit is free.

Don't look now, but the Rams are losing 21-0 at half vs the Falcons.

They were about to go down 27-10 but they blocked a short field goal and took it back for the TD. Basically 10 free points.

Do you think that, over the years, Troy Aikman and Joe Buck have ever shared a hotel room together on the road?
