Bally Sports NOLA is charging $20 a month for their product. Which is normal for other Bally Sports regions. The issue here, however, is that they only offer the Pels. No other teams. Other regions you get the local baseball or hockey team. There is no such thing here. Yet the price is the same. Locals (on twitter) are livid.

AsInHowe posted:I'd love to see these tweets, the guy in charge of Bally Sports (at least publicly) is a known local jackass who is constantly doing greedy things to make a fool of himself. Just look at the replies and quote tweets (and the replies and qt's of those). Nothing unhinged. Just a lot of Bally sucks, guess I'm going to keep pirating, Pels are complicit and shouldn't allow this, etc. With a few, well I guess I can afford it if I cancel my cable entirely sprinkled in. https://twitter.com/cclark_13/status/1559894532895940611?t=1sdM3eojXXn1OwiZu-x8uw&s=19

AsInHowe posted:I think it's time to talk about who operates Bally Sports, for example. Absolute cheap, greedy bastards. The last couple seasons they have been broadcasting the Pels and I was always pleasantly surprised when the video feed was a clean 720p. It was nearly always worse than that. I came to find out later that the better picture only came when they were on the road and could rent/borrow other people's equipment. Yeah.

harperdc posted:60/40 ownership by the Mariners and WB-Discovery, so part of the AT&T groups. And for reference they have live rights for the Mariners, Blazers, Kraken and Portland Timbers. According to a friend (who used to work for the Blazers) on another forum, it is 100% the team's call. quote:They're employed by the team and always have been.

Mahoning posted:I wonder what the median age of the average NFL game is. Probably pretty close since about half of those viewers are from the local broadcast, according to his later tweets. Or maybe it is just the older crowd that are enough of die-hards to tune into a local pre-season game. Or maybe it is related to the age of the owner of the account and not the viewer, like a previous poster mentioned.

One of the few non-Pels sports guys I follow on Twitter. Unfortunately, I only go on twitter when linked tweets from forums and discord nowadays, so I don't see his tweets as much

Most of us already do similar things to watch our blacked out teams.

Kinda related, but the Pels just straight up gave me League Pass Premium with my season tickets this season. First time I have ever seen that happen. I know there has been a lot of local hate on being tied to Bally’s so maybe this is an attempt to assuage that anger?

The Lafayette market also got a deal done so now the entire state of Louisiana and the Gulf South areas of MS, AL, and part of FL finally get the Pels games. Games were restricted to only the greater NOLA area before this. Only took 20 loving years to expand! https://twitter.com/rondaadonn/status/1745515738264203413?s=20

Lockback posted:I'm cautious and skeptical but intrigued. The current deal is so bad I just have to pirate, so Amazon couldn't be worse. I have to pirate to watch Pels games against Dallas since I live in north Texas. When we go to west Texas to visit my partner's family, I have to pirate to watch the Pels against any of Dallas, Houston, or San Antonio. They aren't over the air, aren't on Hulu, and are blacked out on League Pass.
