Peacock?!

I will probably keep it around for another few months because there will be multiple NU basketball games on Peacock this season. I’m sure I spend $6 a month on stupider stuff. 

 

Two more men's games in January.  One women's hoops game in February and one in March.

We have Xfinity internet, so we were able to get Peacock for free with this offer:  https://www.xfinity.com/support/articles/peacock-subscription-faqs#:~:text=How do I get access,take advantage of the offer.

 

If it helps anyone else, sorry I didn't talk to the wife about this before last Saturday for y'all.  It is a longevity thing, if you've had them for a while like we have.

Okay, I just came up with a more entertaining option.

 

I'm going to periodically drop into the HuskerBoard Game Thread and see if I can guess what the score is. 

 

I did this, probably late in the second quarter. The consensus on the Thread was that the Huskers were a complete disaster and might never win another game. I would not have guessed we were down only 7 - 0.

I just want to remind everyone how it sucked being away from home, have time to watch some of the game….but no…..no sports bar is going to have the f#&%ing Peacock network.  
 

Everyone else weee enjoying their game….not husker fans.  And I wasn’t the only one in the area. Others were frustrated. 

 

For $6.99 you could have watched on your phone.

 

I half watched/listened to The c$%k on my phone while my kid had 11:30 and 1:30 basketball games.

Yeah….I was with three other people, that sure feels like we are a member of a major sports conference…..hey, let’s go to a bar and watch our game on my phone while everyone else can watch on actual TVs. 
 

I hate this peacock idea.

I don’t know what to tell you. But if media is willing to give you $80M/year they get to tell you where and when the games will be aired.  I mean it’s 1 game a year that isn’t exactly a marquee matchup.

 

The NFL has a game on Prime every week. And they are going to have a Peacock only playoff game this year as well.

I know all that. I’m talking about the fan experience.  
 

if I’m at home, I’d probably pay the $6……maybe.  But, there are times when a lot of fans aren’t or enjoy watching the game elsewhere. 
 

Like I said, there were other husker fans there frustrated and that’s just one small town in Colorado.

Purdue had 3 games in a row on c$%k this season...
