way to put a premier late season matchup on paywall

Making the Chiefs play Christmas two years in a row is kind of a dick move

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

I wonder for us Canadians if this is the one where we will HAVE to pay for the streaming service to see these games. Wasn't the case for Amazon or Peacock ones.

Pro League: Hey, you can watch a game on this streaming platform...
Me: Neat.
Pro League: ... only.
Me: Go **** yourself.

Lol the Netflix games will just be on TSN in Canada

Think it helped that CBS produced it in this regard.

Xmas games are here to stay forever.

They’ve got 5 years to figure out how to make Christmas games on a Tuesday work, which is easier than Wednesday. By then they might be playing every night of the week anyways.

 

[John Price]

there was no buffering which was a huge surprise

netflix recently acquired the rights to the 2027 and 2013 Women's World Cup too so they are making moves

I can see in 10 years everyone will be watching sports through online streaming services. It's wild.

That was always going to be the future, it was just a matter of how long

I've been streaming virtually all of my sports for several years now, just through the network's own apps

That's easy. The teams playing on Tuesday will just play again 5 days later on Sunday.
