    Guilty. But in my defense it's so my son can watch Manchester UTD get pimp slapped in the Premier league and flirt with relegation.

    This is what I love about western PA, told my wife you can walk a block and a half and go through a burg, a town, a village, township, and I think there is a hamlet in there too.

    So this post that wasn't even quoting you is going to send you over the edge? I'm not a drama queen. You are the posterchild for spawning confrontation, being a drama queen, and basically every annoying thing possible here.

    I'm simply being practical and realistic in seeing the most important goals being accomplished before worrying about something that won't impact any of us.

    It makes perfect sense to anyone that is a reasonable person.

    I think we settled the issue of whether or not you are reasonable.

    What is it with people here accusing everyone of having a different screen name? I'm the same person I was since I joined here. You're still the same buffoon you were from the beginning. Don't believe me, ask Blast or any other moderator. I'm sure they can tell you. You know what? Never mind. You don't believe the moderators here either.

    How's life on planet GoldBurgh. Seems pretty lonely.

    Don't you have a Kenny Pickett doll to worship to? Or is the doll in your pants already?

    Buh bye GoldBurgh.

    How did this happen to me? I was just an "Aww shucks" guy a couple weeks ago. How can I possibly survive this?

    I give up.

    Poor Goldbunny. From now on, every time he hears someone say "Peacock", he can be found on the bathroom floor in the fetal position sobbing uncontrollably.

    I've about had it with all of the streaming greed and trying to force people into it. And I don't like the precedent this sets. Playoff games now streaming exclusive?! Pretty soon, you'll need to pay $99.95 to PPV to watch the damned Superbowl.

    Nope. It'll be a pirate's life for me. (Or my fan days will be over) When is enough enough?

    We have had the misfortune of having a few bad apples in the community and so left for a bit, changed their screen name and comeback usually being the same as they were before they left. Others unfortunately had to be removed by the mods, I can't say that I miss some of them but one or two weren't all bad, or maybe I didn't care enough to poke the bear. There are some that have tried. I don’t think they were successful but Blast, Elvis, and CK would know better than me.

    Thanks for the explanation. I've had a couple people accuse me of that in the last couple days! What the hell???

    I wonder who I remind them of? It can't be good! :lolol:

    I'm not even sure it's the NFL behind it. Everyone and their sister now wants a streaming service and are trying to force people into subscribing. Want to watch this show? It's only on our streaming service. We strung you along for 3 seasons? If you want to watch anymore subscribe to this other streaming service, and even though we're charging you more money than the service is worth, that will be with ads unless you double it.

    I'm not sure, either, but I did hear on the radio today that the NFL is trying to master streaming. They were talking about the Peacock game and saying how smart the NFL was. Who knows, but they are some greedy MF's.

    I see you're sucking up to moderators now. Is that how it works?

    You call me several names and insult me, but you try to make up for it by kissing arse?

    Pucker up!

    Well, if we make it to the playoffs, I think we now know what day and time slot we’ll be playing in.

    The funny thing is, I'm not even against paying to see a game. Not completely.

    Back in the 90s, they started putting college football games that weren't in your market area on PPV. I really thought that was a route the NFL should pursue. Instead of paying an exorbitant fee to see "every game" with Sunday Ticket, why not pay for individual games? (That wouldn't otherwise be on the air)

    When streaming became a thing, I thought they really missed the boat again. Sure, NOW Sunday Ticket is an internet instead of satellite thing. But again, you have to pay for an entire package you probably don't want or need. And so, many don't. But individual games for fans out of the area? They could rake it in!

    Amazon is bad enough, but most people have it by default anyway what with free shipping and all. But NBC wants to shoe horn in for their own service. Pretty soon, Fox, ESPN and CBS will all follow suit. And the average fan gets pinched or forced out. Very short sighted, IMO. This will hurt viewership in the long run.

    I have a problem with it since I'm already paying $ 150/month for DTV. The only reason I keep it is because I have surround sound speakers built into the ceilings of the living room, kitchen and outside and I can't use that with streaming since my TV and components are in different rooms and are too far from each other to run an HDMI cable from the TV to the Denon reciever. I have an ESPN+ and a Prime subscription but can't enjoy surround sound for either of them and now I may have to get Peacock for a month? Getting sick of it all.
