They typically stream in market games on their website, but since all of todays are national theyre streaming them all. I went on for a moment to watch since Im not home and got this...



wtf. So its forcing me use my data? For what reason? The 2nd game streamed fine but its also the Niners (I live in Niner country). Ill check and see what the third does...

I saw there was a game on. Is it the playoffs yet? The Super Bowl is in January, right? So they should be soon. Are the Steelers in it?

Maybe some sort of thing where people share the content via wifi somehow?

Not sure why anyone wanted to waste their time on that game anyway.

Lions so bad they forced Brady out of the game.

No idea but they all worked on WiFi today. That was the first time it ever happened too. Really strange. I know they have a deal with Verizon so maybe for some reason that one game could only be streamed with Verizon. Odd. But the funny thing is I have xfinity mobile which operates on Verizons network lol.
