Stand back, this could get messy.

I just moved and my new roommates don't have any TV service. Honestly I haven't missed TV at all...until now. I purchased one of those indoor antennas for the "Digital HD Broadcasts" but it only picks up a single Spanish TV station. I saw DirecTV has Sunday service available to stream, but they only sell it to you if you are unable to get their TV service due to location. I need to see my Redskins but I'm out of ideas.

Are their streams available game days or is that :filez:?

Bad, very bad!
There are generally streams posted in GDTs, and if one isn't ask and someone will find one for you. You might want to check this thread out if you're willing to shell out some cash.

Only question I
ever thought was hard
was do I like Kirk
or do I like Picard?
Where did you move, that you only get one channel? I think the major networks all still broadcast. I use an antenna in Chicago and I get probably 60 channels

I usually toss up any of the stream links I can find and already have a hd stream of redzone lined up for the season. I don't have cable either so its the only way I can watch too.

That should cover most games in most places. HD streams show up from time to time and people post links to them.

Make sure you have AdBlock+ installed or they'll be unwatchable.

I have been cable free for ~3 years now. Paying to watch commercials is silly IMO. I have a digital antenna for the basics and use streaming services for the rest, along with streaming sites for live sports.

The above list of streaming sites is good.

Yeah, live sports is the only thing I miss, but gently caress paying $350 for a service to watch my own city's team.

Bad opinion. Sports bars are universally awful.

No I mean your local neighborhood dive bar where the bartender knows your name and you don't pay for your drinks

Do they not have those in Baltimore?

Sports bars also aren't all awful, that's ridiculous

Depending on what team you want to see, there are often bars dedicated to that team even far from their area. I watched lots of Browns games at the hideaway in Denver and it's a great experience if the crowds are good

If you have sports bars that aren't BW3 or Old Chicago in your locality I envy you.

EDIT: If anyone knows any decent, affordable sports bars in Lincoln, Nebraska I'd appreciate you telling me right now.

I'm pretty sure most bars make you pay for your drinks.

Let's talk Football.
Also even the "local divey bars" if they have a reputation for being a place where fans gather get overrun. I used to go to a bar all the time but once football season rolls around I never even bother on Sunday's. Just overcrowded and annoying.

Got a free Fireball shot tonight if that counts. I usually chill with the bartenders for SNF games and usually go shot-for-shot.

Shes cute and I have money/no shame so its a good matchup. :feelsgood:

When the Broncos are having a poo poo season I find it cheaper to go to a bar to watch the games not playing where I currently live (ATL) it's cheaper than paying for DirectTV's NFL ticket. Plus you get bar food. Luckily they've been on most of their games for the past 3 years because they draw a crowd. When Pey Pey retires they'll go back to being poo poo and I'll start going back to my local bar.
