Ive had YTV for several years now. Nothing compares for sports IMO.

I already signed up for Sunday Ticket so I could get the $100 off.

The live chat will be a cesspool though. 

 

Why do you feel it’s great for sports? I have Hulu Live ESPN+ and am curious on what the differentiating factor would be?

(Asking cause I’m inclined to switch)

Bit the bullet and made my purchase for the year. Between Fantasy and being out of market for a new exciting rookie QB here in Carolina it was kind of a no brainer. 

^^ This ^^

Was just waiting for the monthly option to show up.  This will be the first year in several that I havent had to watch on my laptop through less than legal means.  It will be nice to not be stuck on a 17" screen.

Google NFL ... and then what you do to an apple to pierce the skin. Dozens of streams for every game. Minimal ad intrusion (zero if you know how to block them ... and the way to get to the actual stream*), and the streams are actually decent. In HD, shows local coverage (as in the real commercials you'll see), and just a few buffer issues a game if any. If you're not a hardcore "Sunday is my holy day" NFL guy, and the Panthers don't come on where you live, it's pretty much perfect.

*key

I loved streaming red zone like that.

I tried Hulu Live and the UI compared to YT was absolute garbage. Maybe its better now but it felt extremely slow and clunky.

Really like the dual and quad boxes YT has added for sports as well as the deep channel lineup just for sports.

Is YouTube tv a separate app on smart tv’s from the YouTube app I use now? I cancelled my Sunday ticket along with directv 3-4 years ago and went to Hulu. But if YouTube tv has everything Hulu has plus Sunday ticket, I might switch again. 

YouTube TV has anything you want.

Yes it's a separate app.

You don't need to subscribe to YTTv for Sunday ticket.

I have directTV and you guys told me youtube TV was the only way to get sunday ticket. I bought youtube TV and then direct TV called me and was like no you can still buy it through us lmao.

got fuggin finessed thanks huddle.

Nobody ever said you needed to buy YouTube TV to get Sunday Ticket.  You get a discount if you had YTTV, but ST is available separately -- it's purchased as a separate YouTube Channel.

Totally understand that there is confusion in the marketing of "Youtube" vs "Youtube TV". It's horrible branding from a consumer viewpoint.

DirecTV is advertising that their users can watch ST, but it's because you can use the YouTube APP on the DirecTV boxes. You still need to buy ST from YouTube, separate from DirecTV.

If you did drop satellite for YouTube TV, I'd say you probably did the right thing, pricewise.

Seriously, this going to YT is the best thing ever.

Being a Panthers fan in Michigan and thus almost never getting our games on TV here, pre-Covid I'd go to BWW almost every Sunday of the season, maybe would get 1-3 games of ours each year on TV here to not have to go.  That would run me anywhere from $25-40 each game depending what I would have to eat/drink on the day, over the season that REALLY adds up, but I would get to at least see the other games on to follow my fantasy teams.

Then once covid hit, in 2020 I just shifted to finding streams and even though they sometimes weren't great, since we were terrible, it just made more sense to keep doing that than go back to BWW to spend that money again.

So now I not only will get our games in high quality again, that also always work, but I can now also throw on any game at any time to watch my fantasy players.  Freaking love it and so excited for this season because of that.

      Grading the Panthers' 2026 Draft Class

      By TheSpecialJuan · Posted

      https://nfltraderumors.co/2026-nfl-draft-grades-for-all-32-teams/      Grade: B+ Best Pick: Sam Hecht Biggest Reach (consensus rank): Jackson Kuwatch (NR) It's easy to love what Carolina did. The Panthers traded four times but ended the draft with the same number of selections that they started with and in approximately the same ranges. They did not take a player ahead of the consensus until Kuwatch at No. 227, and it's easy to see how he fell through the cracks playing at Miami of Ohio. He's a high-end athlete, though, and has a chance to develop, which is a fine profile for a seventh-rounder. Freeling and Brazzell also checked the high-end athleticism upside boxes for the Panthers. Carolina let the board come to them in the first round and could have a long-term solution at left tackle, which is a hard position to fill. Brazzell slid because of some maturity concerns as well as the difficulty in projecting receivers from Tennessee's Mickey Mouse offense. At 6-4, 200 pounds and 4.37 in the 40, though, the upside is undeniable. On top of that, the landed three starters on Day 3. Normally that's a high and unrealistic bar, but Hecht and Wheatley were both firmly inside the top 100 on the consensus board and have paths to win starting competitions. Lee fits the scheme well and has some interesting traits as an outside corner. What stopped me from a full-out A grade is not loving the Hunter pick, though he does fill a need to replace DT A'Shawn Robinson. There were prospects at other needs positions I would have been more jazzed about. The Brazzell pick is also an interesting risk for a team that's still in building mode, even coming off an NFC South title. Still, I'm nitpicking

      I was just a teenager when I joined in 2013. I've loved the many opinions on this forum, even though several are infuriating. I've had several bad takes, myself,  that I've hopefully grown out of over the years.
