How come? Isn't that usually how student discounts work? You use an .edu email instead to show you're a student? I've never done it but thought that was how it was done. 

That's how it was done with DirecTV, yes. Wouldn't put it past Google to see some third-party enrollment verification service come to light for this purpose, similar to how cell phone companies now confirm employment for employer discounts.

They're more sophisticated than that. I've worked at Higher Education institutions all my life and ALL my emails from every Higher Education institution I worked at didn't work.

So you're saying I'm going to have to break into a local college and enroll myself in their records to get this discount?

 

So be it. Desperate times calls for desperate measures.

If only YouTube TV guide wasn't terrible

Does it suck? I was thinking about getting it for football season this year to watch the regular channels. Sling has a pretty good guide but you pretty much have to get both the blue and orange to enjoy a good selection of channels and then still have to find a decent antenna to pick up locals. It would be nice if Sling would just carry the locals like youtube tv does but im sure they would charge even more than they already do to a growing price hike they have constantly.

Live Chat? Oof. I'd hate to be a mod for that scenario. Picture it now, you're watching YT Sunday Ticket on your 65" and chat is on. Your screen is afire with insane-speed text scrolling up. You see emjois, swastikas, the n-word, and then when something big in the game happens that insane-speed reaches lightspeed and you can't even read a word. Oof.

They had the same student discount plans for the DirectTV Sunday Ticket, genius. 

Jesus Christ it's like teaching infants.

How are you pirating? Please teach me the way as I may join your jolly group of pirates as well.

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.

My student discount last year only asked for my college email, which they accepted once I confirmed it via that email, nad my brother did it for years via his college email. If there was more behind the scenes it wasn't obvious.

      I honestly think XL will step up this year. Drafting another WR will be great for competition and I think his best days are ahead

      Bryce has a horrible rookie year Huddle: poor guy needs an o line and some wr Panthers get him an o line and wr Half the huddle: man he sucks since he can't do anything without an o line or wr ( even tho all world mahomes looked mediocre with no o line and only a hof te and mediocre wr - even tho they've drafted a wr in the 1st, 2 in the 2nd and 1 in the 4th in the last 4 years)

      The Panthers upgraded the offensive talent so that the PANTHERS could win football games. The offense now a ton of talent and DEPTH. Ask any coach/GM if they could have a dominating offense or defense which would they choose? Of the 2, it’s offense all day. Eagles don’t sniff the SB without Barkley. Home run hitter. 3 and out insurance policy. Defense stays fresh. It’s not the other way around. Far more games are won converting on thirds than stops on third. Dominating defenses are there to seal the deal.  2003 went from SB to suck from losing their WR1. 2005 was an almost. 2015 went from dominating to never again. Never a back to back winning season. Revolving door coaches. No true offensive depth and talent, EVER.  Now that the offense looks loaded, the same fans who pounded the table for #1 to get some DUDES again remind everyone how misused and cheated he was… well he was and everyone knows it. The coaching was bad. System. Talent…. Bad, except for a few players. Bad. Could he have developed in to a more complete player with better everything. Yes…. But good lord get over it. This is not righting the wrongs of the past because that is not possible. This is trying to win games in the NFL, the way everyone else is doing it.  Will BY throw for more yards and TDs this year than Cam did in 2015. Very likely. But so what. I hope he does. I hope all of Cam and Jakes records are obliterated one day because it will likely mean the Panthers are winning more football games. To feel otherwise is obtuse.  Defense was not and is not being ignored. What Dan and Dave have accomplished in 2 off seasons with the offense is nothing short of a miracle. They obviously know what a grown ass football player looks like. What logical reason is there that indicates they can’t/won’t do the same on defense.
