There is absolutely no way in the world I could watch, let alone fathom watching, a shitty stream on a mobile device.

I have a 65" LED in my family room and it's STILL not big enough to catch everything on every play.

Hah. Alright, I'm talking to cool Dane right now. We can hash this out real quick with no need to get nasty so don't take anything I'm about to say as a slight:

But that's not the first time you've mentioned me watching the games on a mobile device. Where did you get that idea? I've actually legitimately never watched a game on my phone. If anything, I'll watch the streams on my laptop while supplementing my (shit) viewing experience with NFL Gamecenter.

I'm actually in Orlando. Of course there are tons of bars and places to go. The reason I don't go is just that I get really passionate about the games. I tend to watch them alone because the ebb and flow of the game usually really ****s with my emotions. Should we lose, I'd prefer to be pissed off and despondent in the comfort of my own home so people don't judge me.

Dude, I don't know how you can watch them on a stream. It's so awful. I think you'd be better off at a sports bar while learning how to control your emotions.

That said, I'll take a completely different tact when responding to you on game days and in the future.

My apologies.

Not everyone wants to spend money to watch the shitty ****ing Chiefs. I wish I'd take my own advice one of these years.

I feel you. It really sucks but the alternative is spending $30-50 on 3 hours of frustration.

When we were good in 2013 and 2014 I had Redzone and visited sports bars often. Now, tuning in each week I expect a loss and can't justify spending a dime on them.

Lewdog's got it right, although Sunday Ticket streaming is actually much more affordable now. I think it was only like $150 or something for the entire season.

Aren't there sports bars in the suburbs of PHX?

The entire Sunday Ticket and all the extras only cost me $167.

I'd drink and eat that much in Hollywood in two Sunday's, then come home hungry, especially since parking is $15 and beers are $10 dollars plus tip.

Yea, going to the bars for every game would cost way more than Sunday Ticket. But neither is worth the price of what the shitty ass Chiefs provide for entertainment. I pay the $167 like you for Sunday Ticket. Not sure why as this team is a dumpster fire and I get every Cards game anyway....a team that actually tries to win. It would be better just to stream the Chiefs for free.

For me, at the end of the day, it's worth it just to have access to every game.

I must say, however, that Goodell has done a horrible job with the schedule. Two afternoon games yesterday?

There should be balance, IMO. It would make Sunday's more fun.

Yea I don't get the afternoon schedule either. It used to be around 4-5 games all the time! Yesterday was horseshit!

Me too. The only games I've missed in the last few years were when I was out of the country. Otherwise I watch every game, win or lose. I'm not a bandwagon fan that stops watching every time they have a losing streak.

Sunday Ticket is great when you don't live in KC.

Not as bad as you think.

Random screengrab from my stream. I can port it anywhere from my 60' in the living room to my ipod touch. On the PC, I can maximize it on my 27 monitor, or window it to a corner while I do other things, such as type this post.

And if you look hard enough, you can get even higher resolution, up to and including anything your cable or satellite can render.
