I Hate The NFL

First and foremost, I obviously love football. This is why I hate the NFL. I personally think the NFL is too restrictive with its licensing for its own good.
Roger Goodell is a clown and a bad commissioner. He wants the NFL to expand to foreign markets, and wants to make the sport globally acknowledged and loved by all.

So why does he make it impossible for the sport to be seen anywhere outside the U.S.?

He has gone as far as exporting regular season games to London just to build a fan base.
So why the hell would he make it extremely hard to watch games online even in the U.K.?


Ehh, I might be able to care less...but it would be hard.


The NFL has an online service that allows you to watch all of the games of that season at any time for $20. NFL Rewind is only available in the U.S.

There is also NFL Field Pass, which allows you to listen to the live broadcast of any game, and its only $30. But theres no visual. Visual is a necessity.

NFL Game Pass is the only way that someone outside of the U.S. can watch an NFL game live, and it is a mere $240. You could pay $210, but that only allows you to follow one team and see only their games.

In the terms and conditions, though, it says that this feature is not available in the U.K. Why the hell not?

Also, while the product is described itself as "unlimited access to live and archived video of every NFL regular season and post-season game", it apparently is limited to the regular season only, and the "unlimited access" to an archive of video is actually only referring to access to video of the game within 1-3 hours after the live broadcast has ended.

This is my conversation with these clowns:

i am currently living in Korea, thus making it near impossible for me to watch any NFL games live since I work regularly (8am-5pm Tokyo time).

I would like to follow my Baltimore Ravens, but i would like to know:

Is there unlimited access to all of their games throughout the season available at any time in a game archive?

thanks for the help.

JB,

Yes, this is umlimited access, but only to Baltimore games. You can watch the games either live, or in the on-demand archives between 1-3 hours after the live broadcast ends.

I hate you.
