You damn well know there's only one Patrick Mahomes.

That's like saying you don't have to use ticketmaster to watch Smashing Pumpkins, just go down the street and watch that garage band of teenagers if you don't like it.

Acting like a monopoly is bad for consumers and isn't any more ethical than getting around the bullshit of acting like one.
I deleted my post because I didn't see your clarification on the definition of a monopoly before I posted it, but the argument that their is only one Patrick Mahomes is dumb as shit. The talent within the product isn't what makes it a monopoly. Their is only one Classic Coke. Does that mean that Coca Cola has a monopoly?

The overwhelmingly majority of younger people are perfectly fine finding a stream for something. Hell lots of people pirate all kinds of shit from movies to games etc etc.

Hell, I have a pirated Mahomes jersey that looks damn near identical to the authentic Nike. Long live the pirates, matey!

$80 a year minimum to use the internet you pay for…to play the console you already paid for. Ridiculous.

For example...

I pirate EA games, know why? They have stolen enough of my money over the years on pure dogshit products I don't trust them enough to give them 70 dollars sight unseen.

It might be worth it if they would improve the extra tier like for example xboxes gamepass beats it's ****ing ass, yet sony want more.

Explain to me why the show 23 is available on xbox game pass but not on sony's game service? It's a ****ing sony game what the ****?

Streamers are collectively the reason why Patty isn't paid as much as he should be.

I hope everyone who was part of that learned a valuable lesson...Pat you do not want to be Lars Ulrich, don't say anything.

It's absolutely the level of competition that defines whether you can act as a monopoly.

If Coke only had to compete with Cheerwine or Moxie, they could act as a monopoly and basically do whatever the **** they wanted.

It's obviously not the NFL's fault that there's only so much elite talent out there, but it's absolutely their fault to take that advantage and act as a monopoly. If the XFL or whatever they're called could compete, you'd see HUGE changes in blackout rules and the availability of games and so forth.

They would be forced to act ethically in a competitive market, where as right now they aren't and don't.

I have to admit that there isn't much I can argue about in this post. Great argument and really good post.

Just funny how they are perfectly fine price gouging people but people who retaliate are the bad ones.
When you have an elite product like the NFL then you can get away with that. Not trying to get political here but that's the market. We've seen big companies lose money from the market.

Spot on.

The NFL is doing just fine.

No its not, I'm documenting a crime. I've submitted 100's of tips to the FBI about Illegal streams over the years.

So many so I've gotten replies back stating... and I quote

"Thanks BleedingRed, keep up the good work and surveillance! You are one of the good guys that truly has amazing morals!"
