I thought I would put this here.

Does anybody else hate the freaking scatter buck shot effect of scattering sports and games to every possible streaming service.

I just learned that Peacock paid the NFL 110M for this single playoff game. I had the PAC12 network games, ESPNs affiliates, Apple, MLB network, PAramount, Prime, and who knows what else.

I dumped Peacock a couple months back because there wasn't anything on it worth watching.
Just bitching and moaning.
I'm totally pissed about this also. Got to have Prime to watch TNF, Peacock to watch a feckin' playoff game, and now Comcast wants almost $900 a year extra to add ROOT back to my Comcast package that they took away.

It's just bullshit, almost like extortion.

Fuck 'em.

Actually, it does. Warming the Arctic ice places more fresh water into the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. This in turn forces the Gulf Stream (warm water) south and cools those two regions of the north Atlantic and Pacific. Thus climate gets colder in the northern continents. And by the way, more people die due to cold weather than to warm weather.

I don't have the receipts to back this up, but I feel the downfall of the pac-12 was tied to the inepititude of the
business model of the Pac-12 network. Same type of bull shit.
If they are going to make us pay, then make it À la carte. Pay per view. Wanna watch the Iowa girls basketball game?
Pay $2.99. Wanna watch an east coast NFL game that is not broadcast in your area? Pay $4.99 or don't watch it.
They already do this for movies and popular TV shows like Yellowstone on Prime.
But for sports, you have to sign up for a TV provider you don't want to get it.

I blame Biden. Just because he is a senile greedy dickhead and I like blaming him for everything.

I was just telling the wife that Dallas defense looks like the Seahawks.
I did not expect GB to crush Dallas in Dallas. GB making their bid as Cinderella.

LOL Cowboys.

What a lubeless homefield butt-rape by the FudgePackers.

Thoroughly enjoyable.
