I used streams like this for the last 15 years. I hated dealing with the ads, the buffering, the annoying stuff. I decided to purchase an IPTV service… best media related decision I’ve made. It’s $50 for the entire year.

30,000 channels. Organized into sections like football, US news, etc.. also a massive selection of free on-demand movies and TV shows. HD quality.

It was kind of annoying to set up. you have to buy an Amazon fire stick, connect to your TV, download the software to the fire stick, blah blah blah

But it’s flawless once you set it up.
Hmm...I already have a firestick. I might have to check this out. Can you watch all the Bucs games on this service, or is it only if you live in the Tampa Bay area?

Is the IPTV service you use legal in the United States? Many of them are not and you, the user, is the one breaking the law if caught.

@Buc2 google it. You'll have access to any game from any (major) sport from any state/country/continent you'd want...all of em, no matter where you are.
You'll also have all of the HBO, Showtime, etc. as well as nearly every single local NBC/ABC/CBS/FOX affiliate as well. It's how I watched the Bucs' PS games even though I'm in Fort Myers, I was watching WFLA I think it is?
Best deal going IMO.

I’ve added one more player to make it +1100. You need to figure out how to do it.

Stop being so cheap and get YouTube TV. Jesus Christ!

It’s only $49.99 for new users, and then it increases to +$79.99 after two months.

or

Get a Sunday ticket for those who don’t live in the Tampa area.

You can watch everything period. Arabic small town local news. Scottish fourth division soccer. Local programming for Dothan Alabama.

When I say it has everything, it’s almost too much.

When you sign up for the service, they ask you if you want international included. I recommend not. because manually disselecting 100+ regions is annoying.

I'm picking the Eagles for tonight's game because defending champions rarely lose the first game. If the seaon. The Cowboys are without their best defensive player, Micah Parsons, so I'm not sure if Cowboys offense can keep up with the Eagles offense

Cowboys 20

Eagles 34

Wonder if Carter will be suspended? no specific rule about spitting, and apparently no player has been suspended for spitting, but he did it on national TV right before the start of the first game of the 2026 season. If Goodell really cares about the shield, you'd think Carter would be getting some kind of suspension.


Also, the PHI D seems pretty inept without Carter. I know 5 defensive starters left PHi, but still. this is borderline embarrassing for PHI right now.

probably not. But like I said, the optics for the first game of the season are pretty bad. Won't be shocked either way.

That and since it was before play started he probably can't use "it was the heat of the moment" defense.

Won't happen. Optics might be bad, but you're gonna have a very hard time justifying an ejection AND suspension and there were no punches thrown.

Spitting is dangerous business in the age of COVID. But on the whole, i agree with you. just wondering how Goodell will view it, through the lens of "protecting the Shield."
