I just sent the NFL an email voicing my displeasure about their choice to use Peacock for this game. I would encourage everyone to do so. Angry letters and low ratings make a difference.

I wasn't thinking about the NFL, but Peacock. And, although it's owned by Comcast, apparently, like a number of other streaming services, it's struggling.

I have cut the cord. I have Hulu Live which includes ESPN+ and has enabled me to watch most games. Peacock is a competitor with Hulu.

Some people don’t think negative impression makes a difference but brand loyalty is a big factor.

I added my thoughts on this.
Thanks for the link Al.

A person actually emailed me back and basically said "sorry, we appreciate your loyalty, have a great day".

I went to this guys ( “this shit sucks” ) BBQ joint ( was decent, did not suck ) the week it opened. He came with a big group of us to watch KU Mizzou when TRob got called for that bullshit offensive foul in our last conference game v them.

He’s right,
This shit sucks.

Hey, email 'em if you want to—no argument from me—but you can also just watch for free on any number of really good stream sites or start sharing passwords widely, both of which matter more to Comcast and the NFL.
