No. Fox is still the lead network, so many games will still be on their service. But paying for cable is the still foolish. I, a boomer by definition, though a Gen-Xer by all other measures, was able to save $130 a month by switching to Youtube TV, got all the channels I wanted and can put that $130 to paying for my various subscriptions and still have a fair bit of money in my pocket.

I actually get You tube TV myself, just not Peacock.
 
Same here...switched from cable to Hulu a few months ago and felt great saving $. Since then my wife added two subscriptions and now will likely also need Peacock. I'll pay during season then cancel offaeason.

You can save even more if all you pay for is high speed internet service and use VPN.
Just jailbreak a Firestick. Then use Downloader to add every internet available free programming.......IPTV......gets you thousands of stations worldwide and every pay service.
Not that any of us would do such a thing!🤥

Although most IPTV services don't stream well unless you give them some cash to get the High streaming service.

Its better to sell your neighbor on Peacock and get their password.
 
While some posters like Money and others would have you believe that schools make millions of dollars in their athletic programs while these “poor” athletes were only getting room board and tuition is only a half truth. First of all, only some Power Five conference teams were making millions and coming out with a profit. Athletic programs like St John’s made nothing in 2023, after expenses on their program and will lose money in the future if forced to pay athletes significant sums of money.


And let’s go one step further, where does all the money go when colleges do profit from sports programs? Certainly not to line the pockets of administrators but to pay staff, fund research programs and offer scholarship assistance to those students who are worthy of getting an education, students from poor families, students of color etc. whose families can’t afford as such. Plus other money to sustain the university.

Sure let’s mandate that colleges pay athletes big money and stop giving scholarships to those who can’t afford school and are worthy of such, let's jack up the cost of tuition, athletic contests, cable and streaming subscriptions etc. just so all your college athletes can drive around in BMWs and wear diamond earrings.

But let’s stop the BS that colleges make millions while athletes had nothing to show for it.

LOL... Not sure why but I'll bite...

First of all the "business" of college sports is and always has been primarily related to the power 5 conferences and those other conferences and programs that aspire to be in that sphere (which is pretty much every single one)! So based on your "only half truths" this is 100% true - Power 5 conferences have been making millions and paying their athletes - hmm - NOTHING.

In regards to the poor SJU's of the world. Astonishing that they are able to fire a coach with millions due, hire a new coach and guarantee $20 million over contract. On top of that they somehow found a few nickles and dimes in the administration office cushions to build a new on-campus PRACTICE facility for - ready for it - the Basketball team only (estimates of $50M+).

Yet, in your warpped mind, the athletes who put on this show which then generates the revenue should shut up and be happy with tuition, room and board. Maybe that's the package they should have offered Pitino or the AD or the assistant coaches? Hey it's for the betterment of the university right? All should be on board for that... and btw, if you are so concerned about giving people of color an opportunity, would you care to tell us who IS most impacted by the inequities of revenue in this equation?? anxiously awaiting your answer to that one.

BTW, if you think only Power 5 are making investments into sports you may want to educate yourself on the matter, I'm happy to assist with a few articles and even a video (easier for you to follow, maybe).



Cheers!

Wrapped mind? Nah in your way of thinking filed with greed etc. you place money above all else and don’t seem to possess much of a conscience when it comes to humanity and fair play. In your warpped world, if everything was based on money, we wouldn’t need elections, just let the people with the most money call all the shots.

And why shouldn’t athletes be happy with tuition, room and board plus other perks, which based on some reports average in excess of 100K a year, far more then the average salary of a family of 4 earns in the US.

And in your world, forget about using generated income to college scholarships for families in need, let’s line the pockets of 18-20 year old kids with money that they will probably go through in no time.

Have a great day.😎👍

Honestly you are pathetic...

This sermon on greed comes from THE guy who applauded and worshipped Dan Hurley from stealing a few more million a year from UCONN... according to you it was just brilliant negotiating tactics.... BUT the kids he utilizes to make those MILLIONS, screw them.... You want to lecture me on greed, get the f out here, pathetic warped mind.
