So Fox and the other networks pay big bucks to bring football to the masses which I can receive. Then the pricks decided they could make more money by selling a Sunday night football game to a satellite only station. Well gee, they made their money but some people couldn't watch the Sunday night game. Then they sold Monday night football to a huge satellite station. Now many people can't watch Monday night football. Laugh at that if you will and maybe I live in hicksville but I know a lot of people that can no longer get Monday night football. Now they start their own network to broadcast games on and again alienate more people that live in rural areas.

So basically unless I want to pay 150 a month for all services I can't watch my local team that I've followed for over 40 years because these greedy pricks decide the market I'm in just doesn't matter?

So from rural USA I'm as of now making a statement and sending letters to this extent. I am henceforth listening to games on my local radio station. The ONLY game I will be able to receive is the Packers. No playoffs, no Super Bowl no nothing unless the Packers are involved and I can hear them on radio.

Fuck You NFL and the horse you rode in on.
