Key tweets, and it's all gone to Hell.

I caved....subscribed to peacock this week for the US Open. $20 is the price of a sandwich these days in lower CT so it wasn't too much to really debate.

Been enjoying the golf coverage...watching now.

I thought about it. I think I will wait until they actually end up getting big east games, of course, it will be handy for the Olympics as well.

I have never had a problem with Peacock or streaming on my TV. I think you have an internet problem.

The only streaming platform I have problems with is Peacock. And it’s not internet related it’s a problem at the source.

I did the same earlier this week. Pretty good tv/movie selection too. Much better value than a lot of these streaming services.

This also seems odd to me. Keep troubleshooting because the bandwidth on their end seems to be fine for me on multiple smart TV's.

There is not much to talk about. No realignment is happening, and the ACC will be in court for the next decade while everyone plays the wait-and-see game.

People have been saying realignment is dead for years. When Louisville joined the ACC, people said realignment is over. Since then, we have seen SMU, Cal, and Stanford join the ACC, the Pac 12 blow up, Oregon, Washington, UCLA and USC join the Big 10, Utah, Colorado, Arizona, and Arizona St. join the Big 12, and Clemson and FSU trying to get out of the ACC. And, we have seen the AAC restructure with Houston, Cincinnati, and UCF going to the Big 12, UConn go to the Big East, and a number of schools join the conference. And, the SBC and CUSA had significant movement and UMass announced they are going to the MAC.

And, we haven't even started the era of revenue sharing with athletes as well as the shift to streaming which will create additional conference uncertainty. There are even rumors of the ACC cutting schools to increase revenues for the top schools. Will Notre Dame accept the fact that they are at a disadvantage as they are not eligible for a CFP first round bye as they are not in a conference?

The bottom line is that conference realignment is not over.

Uhhh not when there is a literally a message from Peacock saying stand by…

Stop carrying the water for this crap service.

IndyCar just announced they are moving from NBC to Fox. The fanbase rejoiced.

Peacock is garbage.
 
If I go through peacock on my cable box it's kinda slow and clunky. Using the app on my TV, it's fine and works just like Netflix or Prime. I've just don't use the cable box way and it seems fine.

I think it depends on what you are watching.

I’ll be ditching in August.

What a colossal ripoff. This deserves its own thread in the bball forum

It is, but the almost all the of revenues that the NCAA has are from the basketball tournament and the proposed settlement is with the NCAA. That said, there should be an annual payment coming from the CFP to help fund the settlement.
 
The odds of anonymous message board posters hearing legitimate information about conference realignment that concerns UConn in a positive light are the same as Halle Berry knocking on my door and begging me to sleep with her. Not that great.
