Google is reportedly the latest company to make a bid for NFL's Sunday Ticket starting in 2023, according to Tripp Mickle, Kevin Draper and Benjamin Mullin of the New York Times (h/t Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk)

If a deal is completed, NFL games would be streamed on YouTube, which is owned by Google.

Apple, Amazon and Disney are among the other companies bidding for the NFL rights, which are owned by DirecTV through the 2022 season.

"A number of companies are in strong position to potentially land Sunday Ticket, but we still have a ways to go in this process," NFL media executive Brian Rolapp told the New York Times.

Rolapp still expects a deal to be finalized "in the coming months."

Every game? I didn’t know that. But I’m still not watching.

Is there still an NFL?

I didn't think they were a distinct entity after becoming a subsidiary of Black Lives MatterTM and the Democrat Party.

*So, is it the drinking for 3 hours bothering you or the blackout dates and backdoor conniving cable company deals where a person SHOULD be able to watch EVERY SINGLE GAME of the team of their choice without going through any hoops?*

It’s spending $5 on a beer to watch it at a bar.

I got an email from DirecTV that they are offering NFL Sunday Ticket to me for free. BFD. I haven't watched football since the anti-American wokeness took over the league. I have no idea who plays for which team any longer or who won the last Super Bowl Bore.

I used to be a big fan. As a kid I was big fans of the Baltimore Colts during the Johnny Unitas era. I still remember the excitement of watching Green Bay & Dallas in "The Ice Bowl" on TV with my dad. Now, I don't care if I ever see another football game.

This team lives off of it's past. Brett Favre won just one title and Aaron Rodgers got lucky and won one title. He chokes every year.
