Do you want me to send you a free streaming link to watch sports?

I’m tired of hearing about all this paid stuff when we on this thing called the internet.. free99 .com happened when internet service speeds increased.. I look at down at paying to watch sports like prince Akeem father looks down at the thought of his son working

I would pay for this just to watch Inside the NBA during the season. Only thing I really miss since cutting the cord years ago.

Unless you want to watch live... all the segments (Pre, Half and Post) are on YouTube and NBA league Pass...

I fucking hate ESPN+.

Only reason I have it is because it's included with my Hulu and Disney+ package. If ESPN got rid of regional blackouts watching shit on ESPN+ I'd be happy.

I live in Buffalo and last nights Yankees/Blue Jays game was blacked out for me. Same thing whenever they play the Indians. Same thing whenever the Mets play. I just want to watch NY Baseball and the only games I can see are fucking Milwaukee and Cincinnati Reds games on a regular.

If they got rid of the regional blackout shit, I'd be a big fan of ESPN+ for an only streaming option. Other than that, fuck them.
I don’t get the blackout things

It seems like stealing to me

How I pay for some shit but it’s “blacked” out

I have IPTV and I love it but the downside is that there's a 30 second to one minute delay. So people are calling you and shit with spoilers because your shit is delayed. So if ESPN and TNT did something I may be interested. Hopefully IPTV can fix the delay

It used to be about protecting stadium owners to make sure that people actually attend in person instead of just watching on TV. Nowadays, it's more about protecting broadcast contracts. For most leagues, the local broadcaster has priority. HOWEVER, some networks pay for rights for games at specific times of the day. That will even black out a local broadcast and is basically designed to boost the national broadcaster's ratings, because it's figured if you can't watch your home team, you'll what whatever Fox or ESPN is showing instead...

people are so self-centered they don't realize if nobody paid for any of this shit it would be free again. but no one is willing to give up watching for a few months and listen to games on the radio/computer.

You don’t have to give up nothing.. this thing called fast internet and many free streaming sites have allowed humans to watch any fucking game for free on your phone, tablet, pc, laptop, tv, etc.. it’s literally been available for over a decade.. I literally have been without a cable box for probably 14 yrs.. cable modem + tablet, phone, laptop, pc literally any of those devices will show you the game. It’s wonderful being able to watch any fucking game.. no not the couple cable let’s you see but any fucking 1.. free99.com.. why do people not take advantage of this.. it’s like if I had free $500 ebt cards and I was handing it out in front of Costco and saying here you go guys free food on the house and people denying me like no i rather spend my hard earn money on food instead of saving money or taking advantage of this great offer.. will never understand this shit

For the price I'll deal with delays and buffering.

I pay 8 bucks a month and that's considered on the high end, but I pay for ease of use.

I could get it all for free that I don't feel like doing all that clicking
