Find out if the Steelers are on TV in your area

Can't wait until after 2022 when the DTV/NFLST contract expires. Hoping it farms out to several broadcast/stream services. Even better would be an "a la carte" option. I'd be happy to pay $99/season for Steeler games only as opposed to $300-$400 for ALL the games. Then again, this has been a pipe dream for many NFL fans for years, but the greedy league won't likely let that ever happen.

Geeez. Here up north you can get Dazn. 20$ a month. All the games. Perfect pic. No contract,watch anytime. Seems like a bargain compared to that. Plus all the baseball,Europe soccer etc.

I think they'd make a killing doing pay per view. I'd drop $20 per game for every Steeler game that isn't shown here in Iggle-land. Frankly, I don't want to get DTV, so I have no legal opportunities to see them live.

Plus internet service. Wig,I used to do all that till I got fed up. Plus my cell phone....4 kids cell phone,wife’s.
Everyone wanted data. It was getting crazy. Snip,snip. I got an HD antenna for 15$. Gives me 7 live pure HD tv channels,for free. It’s all I need. All the major networks and local. Then of course I stream with internet.

It’s funny I was so used to getting that 100+ channels,now I don’t miss it at all. Especially the $$$$$
I go to my sisters place,and spend half the time flipping the channels wondering what to watch,cause there are too many selections. Never again.
 
Don't get me wrong. I spend some long green on entertainment channels. I have Prime and Netflix, but no cable. So it's not like I don't spend a penny, but man, I think my wife would ******* kill me if I spent $2500 on TV. But hey, this is America, man. You do what makes you happy, and I'm happy for you.

Hey everyone, Games at Blitz's!

They don't work too well out here in the windy sticks. That's city boy stuff only, as far as I can tell.
 
Houston V Jags.... will be at the bar not watching that gag fest. Blah
 
Strange thing about it is that after years of making my annual call that turned into a routine refusal to give me any sort of deal on the ticket, I like many of you couldn't justify spending the $300, so I hadn't had it in probably 4 years. Last year, as Zona said, I got it free for whatever reason. Then in the first week of August I get an email from DTV thanking me for being a "loyal fan" giving me Sunday Ticket Max at no cost. I ******* hate even thinking about the cost of TV and how much I've spent on it over the years. That was often one of my negotiating techniques as my whole motivation for getting DirecTv in 1996 was the Sunday ticket so I could watch my beloved Steelers. Now the ****** part, 25 years of DTV at 100 per month (average but anyone who has had it nows it was probably more) means I'm in at more than 30k. I used to point that out to whomever I was dealing with and it worked until ATT bought them which coincided with the end of any sort of deal. I guess the point is it's free again or is it? Also was I "loyal" or stupid? It could go either way.

Brainwashed, is what I call it. We were advertised to believe we needed everything snd good a deal it was VS a plain package.


I use to pay about $260 a month for everything, "the WORKS" package. On a two income family it seemed ok but then I became a "single income" family and re-thought how many things I really didn't need. I cut the strings and now ONL have company phone/Internet (paid by company), Company also has Amazon PRIME, my daughter has given me one of here passwords for her 4-HULU account, bought a Samsung TV and unbelnowist to me I get "Samsung TV" 165 channels for free. I'm about to get PARAMOUNT + and that will cost me about $10.00 a month but will give me local CBS and an array of many other viewing pleasures.

So to sum up, I'll be paying about $10.00 out of my pocket for near or better than my $260.00 gave me years ago.

I also realize that we really only need a handful of channels but in my case the rest are free so I brose them occasionally.

I commend all those who take the TV into their own hands and NOT let the corporates dictate their spending !




Salute the nation
 
I would get it, if I had any TV service at all.

directv has me hostage. I pay $$$$ to direct tv just to get the ticket. but I would pay more by going to Steelers bars

Last year of that. No DirectTV Sunday Ticket—where will it go? Not sure but several contenders
 
Here locally, Atlanta, we got jags-texans. But my wife went on a bitching tirade with D-tv and got the ticket for free. She's good for something. :D
