You're not alone. That is why there are dozens of "premium" channels collecting monthly subscriptions.
If you like that, then dont complain.

Same place I always watch … sportsbar. I like talking **** back and forth with randoms in public.
Gents.
It's FIVE ******* DOLLARS a month.
We spend that much at a sports bar on a beer.
I'll tell you this: I got rid of cable TV a few years back, after the cost started creeping up around $200 per month with Internet and random fees. I'll take plain old Internet, YouTube TV, Amazon Prime, and whatever services I feel like from month to month, and I'm still saving a ****-ton. I ditched HBO Max for a little bit, that saved me $15 per month. Same with Paramount Plus.
It's one playoff game. If you really want to watch it, either get the free trial or spend five dollars. Then have one less beer.

Last year it was an extra charge to watch Thursday games. This year it's an extra charge to watch a playoff game. What are we going to have to pay extra for next year? And the year after that?
Same. Bdubs in my son and I's spot on Sundays.
I mean, I'm actually surprised that cable is still able to charge so much and not only that, but passing broadcasting and other stupd ass fees onto the bill and people are still paying. It's crazy. The fees alone just for tv service on xfinity are 50+ dollars. That doesn't include the service. I have my digital TV antenna to get the local channels, and a miture of streaming which saves tons of money. The NFL knows that it's only a matter of time before cable is obsolete and most people are switching to streaming. So either way your paying. Or you don't pay and don't watch
I didn't until last year. That's the thing. I don't want to have to keep adding services each year to watch football. But that's what seems to be happening. Where does it go from here?

Good article to read on the subject of streaming NFL games. It isn't going well for Amazon.
Fox CEO Lachlan Murdoch: TNF switch from broadcast to streaming is a "disaster"
For the NFL, streaming isn't the future.profootballtalk.nbcsports.com
Where in the article does it say it's not going well for Amazon???
Don't quote the Fox guy cherry-picking nonmonetary KPIs.

So much this
I spent well over $100,000 going to Dolphin games home and away for over 40 years. So I have never had a problem spending money watching the Dolphins play. As far as the other teams in the league are concerned, I really have no interest in spending a penny to watch them play.
So I will watch the Dolphins, no matter the cost. I wouldn’t pay for any streaming service just to watch any of the other teams play. If they ever make the Super Bowl pay per view and the Dolphins aren’t in the game, I would just find something else to do during the game and read about it later.
