I just cancelled my NFL Sunday Ticket

I've watched the prices of it go up every year by $20-25. Being still close to KC, almost every KC game here is televised. If you are thinking about canceling Sunday Ticket and you have to cancel it before the end of July or they will make you pay the full amount.

$250 a year was too much for me...

I dont think i could just not have the Sunday ticket. At least not anytime soon. There is no way i am watching the Raiders and 9'ers play. I hate these 2 f'in teams. If i lived in KC or something, then i would have no problem not having the Sunday ticket.

I'm pretty sure you don't have to watch football to live in society today.

Because the cable companies are still allowed to bid on the NFL package.

That was both in my case. If you log into your DTV account online, you can see what they will start charging you next month. For me, it was $49.80 over 5 payments.

I get that. What I don't get is why is it exclusive to DTV? Everyone has the MLB, NHL, NBA, and NCAA packages available.

Sounds like they are throwing lots of sh@t out there. I definitely am giving them the $45.80.

I just purchased it because it was on sale @buy.com.
I will let you know as soon as he sets it up. I live in Atlanta and hope it makes it a lot easier to catch the Chiefs. Will update after I use it.

Basically, find a friend who is inside the Chiefs broadcast area and who is willing to let you leech off of their internet for a few hours each week, and you can get decent quality games streamed to you for free.

You can typically find ways to get streamed games otherwise (a la SOPcast), but this is much higher quality.

Cool. I'm debating between trying this out or biting the bullet for DirecTV. If the quality is decent, though, I'm sure I could talk a family member into hooking it up for me.

I'm guessing here, but it's probably because in exchange for the ridiculous amount of $ that DTV is giving the NFL, DTV wants exclusive rights.
