Comcast/NBC execs need to know by now that Peacock isn't gonna happen.  

But I guess they're trying again after Disney bought Comcast's (NBCUniversal's) remaining Hulu stake. 

So now NBC is trying their darnest to push Peacock and no one is biting.  They're gonna keep trying.  Prepare for more annoying sh*t

 

Two words about last night game. Taylor Swift. They banked on all the swifties paying for peacock to broaden the market. They didn’t give a poo about actual football fans.

It’s a much larger deal than Swift. People are overblowing how much the NFL and networks are hyping her or whatnot. So what, they show her in a booth like they do with owners for a few seconds during a game. It’s really not a big deal.

She’s become arguably the most successful music star in history from a monetary standpoint. She’s in that Garth Brooks/The Beatles/MJ tier when it comes to sales, tours and cultural impact. As a guitarist, not my cup of tea but I say, so what, it’s really overblown IMO.

Oh I agree on all fronts but I think you are underestimating swifties or what ever they are called.

Peacock paid $110m to air the game before Kelce and Taylor started dating

I will not subscribe to Prime or Peacock to watch a football game.  Even if it means missing a Panthers game in the future, no dice.

Not gonna lie. I love Prime on its own merits. TNF is just icing on the cake.

I cut all my streaming services.  I may sign up for Apple when Masters of the Air comes on, but the cost of all of them was getting ludicrous. 

Also, at one point in time, boxing was one of the biggest sports in the US.  Millions watched Sugar Ray Leonard or Ali on network TV.   But all their main events were PPV.  Don't get me wrong, boxing had a lot of problems, but PPV is one of the reasons that it is no longer a major sport.  

NFL should take that lesson to heart. 

Yeah, but UFC essentially took boxing out didn’t?  And UFC uses essentially the same PPV format boxing did.
