Pretty much... the general idea was if you just want to watch sports, give me all the sports. And then if you don't watch sports, you don't have to pay the premium prices for adding ESPN to your cable package and so forth.
Except everyone is now segmenting sports, making each ala cart option more expensive for everyone while sports fans have to purchase every ****ing streaming option available.
And while it grinded my gears to purchase a month of Peacock for the playoff game, it's probably a better option than what I had before, paying $90+/month for Dish while they constantly had contract disputes and killed channels for weeks/months at a time.
I'd say these days I'm missing more sports due to the bullshit versus paying more.
