He's a nepo baby that is also terrible at doing football games. One of my favorite aspects of last night is simply how this game was Peacock…I mean, of course it takes an additional payment based subscription to watch a local school take down the nations #1 ranked team. 1 Quote Link to comment

He might still be the biggest (or very close), but he won't be anywhere near the strongest. He will be drafted, but probably late 1st/early 2nd and not play much. He can't guard anyone outside the post and can't shoot from outside 3' and is extremely timid. He's a great college player but doesn't fit in the modern NBA. He would have made a boat load of money in the NBA 25 years ago, but now he'll rarely play. That's why he came back for another season. He is probably making 1M+ in NIL and gets to play where he is worshiped. If he were in the NBA he might make more money but be sitting at the end of the bench (or in the G League) in anonymity. 3 Quote Link to comment

No chance he is a 1st rounder IMO. Kofi Cockburn went undrafted (currently plays in Korea). Luka Garza went 52nd (currently sits on the TWolves bench in street clothes). 1 Quote Link to comment

Already subscribed--that we get B1G Football and Basketball (and hopefully Baseball...) on it is great. Also, it's kinda funny/sad how quickly people forget we had to pay $39.99 for ONE FREAKIN' GAME when we were in the Big XII. One year we had something like three games (Kansas, Kansas State, Iowa State IIRC) all on the Fox Sports PPV s**t. $39.99 for one freakin' game vs. $11.99 for a monthly sub that gets you a hell of a lot of quality programming? Some folks need to get some perspective... Quote Link to comment

Has some Husker sports occasionally and some good flicks. I like it. I didn't watch the game tho bc I was under the weather and forgot about it. My gurl took me for Pho and after that we got under the blankets and she watch BET channel. Keeping me ok. Of all nights to watch a Nebraska game and all I could do was lay in bed and sleep.

admo Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 On record, stop complaining about Peacock and Husker sports. You are so sophisticated and buy things like an iPhone for $850 dollars every few years, you pay for electronics, PS4/5 and games, you spend for movie apps and subscriptions...... For peacock you pay for it the night you buy a $10 dollar ribeye steak to grill. In other words, it's not a suffering amount o pay for a service to watch sports and movies as you think it is. Just remember that your butt warmer seats in your SUV and iphones will console you...... With that steak on the grill Quote Link to comment
admo Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 LOL I'm sorry. My brother @Mavric might move this to Peacock Sports thread - New World 2000 This weekend I am happy to say, because I do have Peacock, I will get to see the NFl payoff game - Miami Dolphins vs KC Chiefs If you don't have it, put your internet radio on and imagine. You still get to see the Steelers play Houston or the Browns or Buccaneers or something. Also heard the new iPhone 15 is titanium. Totally worth it $$$$ Miami Dolphins vs KC Chiefs..... Exciting and only on Peacock Quote Link to comment
Savage Husker Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 People have some pretty defensive and accusatory justification over simply identifying how the biggest upset of a #1 team, playing the game in your local market, is not easily accessible as flipping to a channel. The streaming service is a disservice to the casual fan, especially when there are dozens of cable stations dedicated to sports alone. Oh how the times change from when we missed the first 5min of a bowl game because UCONN women *losing* is played on 3-4 ESPN stations. 2 1 Quote Link to comment
ECisGod Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 I don't have Peacock because I have season tickets so the only hoops game I missed was Oregon State in Sioux Falls and there is nothing on the platform that I care about. Are there a few Universal movies I might want to watch for the 10th time, but nothing I can't live without. None of their "original" programming looks that good based on ads I see. If I saw any reason to get it the $6/month wouldn't matter. 1 1 Quote Link to comment
