Cutting cable

Trying to figure out how to watch Canes games. Bally seems to only cover Florida. But cable is insane.

I can watch on the computer, but I need weekend yard games.

I changed from Direct TV (they are in dispute with Fox and can’t watch Panthers) to Hulu and got the package with ESPN+, now I will use my NordVPN ($5 month) to pretend to be out of town and watch on ESPN+
 

Only other option for me was to to pay $20 a month for Bally App, wasn’t going to do that.

A whole lot of gymnastics to watch my home team.

I got rid of DirecTV as well and went to Hulu with the ESPN+ package. I'm not sure if I live far enough from Raleigh to be able to watch on ESPN+, to be honest.

If it comes to pass that I'll need the Bally app @ $19.95, then I'll pay it during the hockey season.

Ya from legit lines looking more and more like the Bally app is the only option.

I have the Disney/ESPN×/Hulu bundle. Hoping I can find a Reddit stream and cast it to the tv.

Nord VPN is only $4 a month and will allow you to watch on ESPN+

VPN also has added bonus of ad blockers and general internet security. Not a bad idea to use one when browsing generally, not that I’m any expert

Y’all need to learn to VPN. You can be anywhere you want in the world at any time. The issue is VPNing between your router and tv.
 

Or you can sail the seven seas. I can teach you the fundamentals of being a pirate very quickly. 
 

 

Send me a PM. I was doing it on my computer but could never cast to TV without it screwing up the feed. I might do fubo because they have bally plus locals and all the others for 75 a month.

I use VPN app on fire stick so no computer link needed. 
 

Open up app on Firestick/Amazon Tv and connect to server in New York then open up ESPN+ app and canes games are available on TV.

Are all the games on ESPN+ ?

All but three of the regular season games will be on ESPN+ if you're out of state.

The three that aren't are Nov 15, Dec 6, and Jan 24; those are all on TNT, so you'd need either a cable, satellite, or streaming live TV service like YouTube TV etc if you want to watch those legally.

Also remember playoff games after the first round are all ESPN/TNT, so ESPN+ wouldn't cut it for those.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
