Add the Bally Sports network and it would be athletically perfect

I have been a sports fan. The money, the commercialization, the de-emphasis of excellence has driven me away. Used to love golf, LIV has ruined it. Used to love CFB, NIL is trashing it.

No big deal. If it’s on my tv at no extra cost, I may watch. If not, lots of other stuff to do.

I’m turning into the old “get off my lawn” guy.

ESPN already had a sports streaming app. They must want to pool resources to compete with the major broadcast networks. Thus, you will pay a fee to watch popular team professional and college sports.

Unless they’re each going to continue to offer standalone services which compete with each other, isn’t there a huge antitrust issue here? “Let’s not compete for viewers or on rights fees” isn’t exactly consumer friendly.

I hope every tv, computer, and phone that downloads this app explodes.

The triumvirate is seeking to be a streaming monopoly for some sports venues. Whatever happened to antitrust? Instead of competing every year to have those venues on their own “app” they are colluding to not compete and have their triumvirate get a lock on the venues for themselves.

I usually caught all my games: Buckeyes, and Lions on Local FOX & ABC channels over the years. Always had to go to bar over the years to catch the College Playoffs.
Finally signed up with YT TV to get College Playoff this year (ESPN). $65 a month.
I guess I will have to wait until the Fall to find out how this shakes out. Ill defiantly have some Subscriptions to eliminate, and some to purchase. My Head is spinning! :)

How much will this cost? Will outlets that lose channels or options reduce their consumer costs?

Lots to shake out here.

“Losers” is the name of the new streaming service right?
