We have off this week, then play the divisional round, if we win we go to the conference round then to the SB.

@Matt lol wow all I had to do was scroll down on my Google search. That would have helped. Thank you for the copy pasta my friend.

[TinMan]

It was awesome following along and watching your pool develop. Congrats to the lone iron heart survivor!

What is this craziness you have to have peacock to watch chiefs/dolphin playoff game.

[Mizmazzle]

I was just about to post about the Peacock BS!! Love how they market it as a first ever event!! Likes it a privilege to have to buy their service to watch the game. Annoying as hell.

@Mizmazzle I agree 100% it sucks. It’s $5.99 for a month,you just have to remember to cancel. There’s also a movie on Peacock that I want to see as well. Earlier this year Roger Godell said the the NFL is well on its way to making 25 Billion a year. They don’t care,They don’t have to.

[Matt]

We don’t have cable so we have most of the streaming networks. Peacock has some good shows. Poker Face is good. If you don’t have it there should be a free trial that would get you through the post season.

[Mizmazzle]

Does it have to be Peacock premium to get the game?

[Matt]

That’s what we have and we get the Sunday Night games. Premium is the $5.99 plan.

[Mizmazzle]

Gracias compadre!!

[Jett129]

@Mizmazzle And there’s an $11.99 plan if you want to 86 the commercials.

[Matt]

I don’t find the commercials to be overly obtrusive It’s not worth the add $6 to me but I understand the need for some to eliminate them.

[Mizmazzle]

@Jett129 I hate commercials so bad. Don’t bother me during games, but movies…can’t do em!!

[Jett129]

@Mizmazzle I hate commercials so much that I DVR most shows,so that I can Fast Forward through them. When I watch football I record and then wait about an hour to start watching so I can zip through the ads,and as you know there’s lots of them. Usually watching in real time by the 3rd quarter.

[Mizmazzle]

@Jett129 solid strategy. I’ve got the DVR I think…never have used it.

[mclaincausey]

Not going to buy a streaming service I don’t want just to watch a game I don’t care about. Fuck you NFL and NBC even if I wanted to I wouldn’t on principle.

[Jett129]

@mclaincausey If The Chiefs weren’t in it,I wouldn’t do it. It sucks,but I really want to see the game,and they got me by the…and $6 won’t kill me.

[mclaincausey]

Fair enough. The principle chaps my hide enough not to be into it no matter who is playing. Just pathetic. Voting with my dollars.

[Matt]

I’d rather pay the streaming services than the cable mafia. At least I can pay my $6 and bounce. I prefer that to a two year contract and criminal levels of customer service.

[mclaincausey]

Agreed, and I’m not adding Peacock.

Playoff games need to be widely available IMO. I hope this blows up in their face.

I do to,but I fear this is just the beginning. A friend of mind said,well I’ll go to a sports bar and see it. I said to him you’re gonna drop $70-$80 on food and drinks,so you don’t have to pay $6. Yeah you showed them.
