Well shit then if you are going to do a deal with Bars let the regular consumer have the direct TV in his or her house. We want to be able to watch it at home. I’m a paying directTV customer. I should be able to watch the NFL. This is the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard of.

[Hacksaw]

About as dumb as D-TV Stream not carrying the NFL Network. Only the dish side broadcasts that channel.

Here’s how the bars will get Sunday Ticket now.


NFL, RedBird Capital Launch New Company to Deliver Games to Bars and Restaurants

EverPass Media will offer NFL Sunday Ticket to commercial venues, with YouTube holding consumer rights to the package

The NFL is partnering with Gerry Cardinale’s RedBird Capital on a new venture that will offer NFL games to commercial venues like bars, restaurants and hotels.

The new company is called EverPass Media, and has a multi-year license to sell the NFL’s Sunday out-of-market TV package NFL Sunday Ticket to commercial venues. The NFL says it will be offered on a non-exclusive basis through all cable and satellite TV companies.

EverPass will be led by media veterans Derek Chang, who will be executive chairman, and Alex Kaplan, who will be CEO. According to RedBird and the NFL, while its first offering will be Sunday Ticket, it “intends to grow its content offering beyond NFL Sunday Ticket, providing businesses a broader premium live sports and entertainment service both in the US and globally.”

“Creating a platform that allows commercial establishments to deliver the content that their customers desire is a significant opportunity and technology allows us to aggregate this content to a platform that can scale and evolve the viewing experience,” adds Chang.

EverPass’ only real competitor in the space is satellite company DirecTV, which used to hold exclusive Sunday Ticket rights. DirecTV is the provider of NFL Thursday Night Football to commercial venues (the game streams on Amazon Prime Video), and also offers Apple’s MLS and MLB games to commercial locations.

Everpass was already getting it. Seems smart if they are partnering w DTV instead of competing with them.

The YouTube deal is only residential.

We DO NOT want to watch it at home on DTV.

No different than the MLS/Apple and Friday Night Baseball/Apple deal where sports bars and restaurants still run off DirecTV. Legacy equipment.

We will see how many the "We" will be for YTV, many of us rather watch on DTV.

Thanks for saying. Yeah well I’m speaking for me. I don’t want to watch YouTube streaming Sunday ticket. I’d like to watch DirectTV at my house. I like to watch the different games. I pay for multiple streaming packages. I like Hulu but I want my different direct TV Channels. I pay about $500 for the direct TV I just like it that way.

I go to rams games. I just like to watch at home sometimes. So they did a deal with bars that’s great. Do a deal with some of the home TVs.

To be clear. You said “we” not you.

Your entire first post I responded to said WE



I AM POINTING OUT, that your WE IS NOT UNIVERSAL

[RedAlice]

It is better to END the strangle hold DTV had.

It is BS.

I used the word WE because he did.

And. I can guarantee you that streaming is ok to everyone except old people.

It’s not an issue.

Also I suffered my whole football life being dictated to by DTV. That is finallly ENDED


YAY. YAY. YAY.
