St John’s on peacock exclusive is a fireable offense

This goes back to Disney putting UNC/dook on ESPN2 when they were both topped ranked and Disney was trying to put pressure on operators to add the deuce to their cable packages.

This should be a pinned post. I don’t think people understand that 1/3rd of these games will NOT be on linear TV. I can’t remember any season in recent history with that many. Be prepared!

You know for each game that is on a streaming subscription someone will start a thread asking how they can watch the game that day. And then lots of posters will complain about it being on a streaming channel. You know it's coming no matter what you tell them now. 😀

Anyone have a peacock deal?

Anyone have a peacock deal?

Usually they offer a year for 20-25 bucks around Black Friday. You would miss the UMass Lowell game if you wait til then, if you don’t mind.

How many of these, if any, would not be available on Youtube TV? Sorry if that’s a dumb question. Just covering my bases.

1/3rd. Essentially the same as cable. My point is everyone will need Peacock or you are missing at minimum 9 games. The one espn+ game is the only other non-linear game. And remember, peacock has rights to like half of the BE tourney too.

 

[Ha Who]

Is that the new math?

 

[UConn Dan]

NBC Sports Boston??? What is that? I assume also on Peacock?

 

[navery12]

My only complaint is that Peacock doesn't let you start the game from the beginning if you open the app on your TV mid game

Last year it was simulcast on UConn+ for the BC scrimmage. I presume it will be the same deal this year.

Chief00 is going to have a hard time with this!

Celtics channel

They carry most Boston Celtics games.

This is only for the BC exhibition. I'm not assuming this would be on Peacock.

Good question whether it will also be simulcast on UConn+. Makes sense if they would.

8 games on Peacock? .... SMH.... The worst of the worst.

The current WNBA commissioner seems to be looking for a new job. Val is going to be feeling the heat.

 

[superjohn]

This is horrible. How the hell is Val Ackerman still employed?

 

[InKembaITrust]

Typo for Kansas. Dec 2nd is a Tues.

And the amount of Peacock is annoying.

 

[jibsey]

I hate this crap but obviously I’m going to be getting Peacock. Will try Black Friday but it would not surprise me if that deal of $25 doesn’t happen same as last year.

 

[Flipside]

Peacock games will not be watched, ha ... loving the weekend dates & times @ Villanova and St John's

9 different channels for a blue blood seems outrageous and criminal. Its like we have no home.

The Big East media deal is looking worse and worse. Barely a raise and went from nearly 100% linear TV to 67% on a million different stations

8 p-cocks. Woopi woopi wow. screw that

I’m doubting that will happen again. They just raised the price to 110 from 79. Might be better off paying 11/month for 4 months

Selling games to a streaming only outlet entirely is a fireable offense. Like I don't subscribe to enough streaming platforms already, now UConn is forcing me to subscribe to another for four months
