So, mobile-only and you can't get out-of-market games? Guess I'm still illegally streaming lmao

Either Apple or Amazon will buy Sunday Ticket then we’ll be able to stream on the TV. I’ve been bootlegging DirecTV for years and the quality is such shit lol. Thank god I have both Amazon and Apple

 

[JAAM]

Actually, I'm confused. Is DirecTV running the show for this upcoming season?

According to PFT, "...That’s the only thing that’s known at this point; after 2022, DirecTV is out. At some point during the 2022 season, we’ll find out who will be in come 2023."

Plus I got an email from DirecTV last week saying that they'll renew my subscription for this upcoming season or I need to cancel by 9/10/22. Do I have endure their shitty streaming for one more season?

Mixed feelings about this. Rod is cool, but he went into the Hall as a steeler.

Directv has Sunday ticket for 2022 season. They're out after that.

It's going to a streaming service (NFL has confirmed that) but unknown which one. Also, sounds like based on how the recent TV contracts stipulate, there won't be a sharp decrease in pricing for it either. So the hopes of like Amazon or Apple bundling it for cheap won't be happening, at least in the short term.

So even through a streaming service, it'll still cost like $200-300 or more per season for the short term. And I've seen nothing to suggest the NFL is currently interested "paying for one teams game" plans.

That’s what I feared. Fuck. And honestly, to me, I don’t mind the price. Being in California, having the ability to watch Ravens games with my mom is priceless

technically you don't go into the hall of fame based on the team you played for, but I understand what you are saying.

yes, DirecTV has Sunday Ticket this season

If you listened to his acceptance speech it was fairly obvious where his allegiance lies, there’s no question he went in as a steeler. He may act differently for a bit to make some do re mi broadcasting, but he isn’t a Raven. So yeah, screw Rod. lol

Also Kyler Murray can lose his $230M by breaking the no-baseball clause that's also in his contract.

Murray’s deal includes a very broad clause that triggers a default as to his guaranteed money in the event that he has any involvement with organized baseball. A default occurs is Murray “participates in any type of baseball-related activity (including, without limitation, a tryout, workout, practice, scrimmage, exhibition or game) for any baseball team, in any baseball league.”

Kyler Murray contract also includes very broad no-baseball clause

Kyler Murray has said he'd like to find a way to play both pro football and pro baseball.

Doesn't feel like a maturity issue to me. Media is overblowing it to begin with. It's basically just bad PR. If they were that concerned about his film study habits, they wouldn't have given out the contract.

Also naïve of the public to pretend like all QBs have Peyton Manning or Tom Brady's film study habits and spend 12 hours a day in film sessions. I can guarantee few other players at other positions do that, and even at the NFL level, there's plenty of guys who believe they're there purely on talent and desire.

Kyler has came out and stated that he wasn't into studying and doesn't feel the need to study because he can naturally see what's going to happen before it happens.
