The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

I tried to be the good guy last year. I paid for Sunday ticket so I could watch all the games. Then the playoffs come, and they put a fucking playoff game on fucking Peacock that was exclusive to Peacock. NBC wouldn't even air it on the local affiliate. The playoffs have always been on network TV to get maximum viewing, and now they put it behind a walled garden on the worst streaming service. Fuck them. I cancelled my Sunday Ticket and will never give them another dime. I know /knew how to pirate, but again, I was trying to follow the rules, and they fucked me. Now it's back to the seven seas.
