    This season I’ve been watching the recaps on YouTube a few hours after the game ends. Free, no ads, and you are in and out in under 20 mins. I might not be able to sit through a 3 hour football game on TV again. Got so many hours of my life back this year

    Here is a secret: you don’t have to watch it. You can just watch sth else. If they didn’t want you to see it and talk about it it’s their loss

    They’re doing the same thing for the NHL, and the terrible part is Prime’s video is usually way better than Sportsnet. Still cheaper to sail the seas though!

      Same. I was annoyed enough by unreliable streams that I looked into paying. It would be an absurd price for less than half the games. And that’s assuming their stream even worked, because last time I tried the Comcast and NESN official streams they just straight up wouldn’t play.

        Up here in Canadia for full NHL access (bullshit blackouts), it went from $250 to $340 a year and stream quality seemed to get worse somehow. Almost every game I’d have to log back in to the app and restart the game, but it would automatically go to live (I liked to wait a bit and skip commercials.

        The joy of cancelling that shitty service was sublime!

        Rbtv77 has been exceptionally stable for me this year. It’s a sideloaded android app, works on TVs too.

        There’s the big 4 sports plus soccer, but there’s also a ton of international niche sports. Like I fire it up and catch cricket, handball, rugby, half court basketball, volleyball, table tennis, billiards, days long car races, whatever. Some of the games have an audience of like a few dozen people and aren’t broadcast in English but only if they’re international.

        I definitely didn’t set up a raspberry pi 4 with Kodi, and got the addons “mad titan sports” and “the loop” to watch live sports.
