What and awesome story. Thanks for sharing it! We are so lucky to have Josh the player and Josh the manas our QB. Happy Birthday!

Marvcus Patton...his mom was a professional football player.

Its the same package...just at a different price. I'm sure you can legally share with your parents if you guys live in the same house.

First, if you are on an auto-renewal plan through Youtube TV or Youtube, cancel that autorenewal. It won't let you register for the discount if you are in an autorenewal program. Next you have to create an ID.me account using the same email address you use for YouTube. (I had an existing account from sometime in the past...I can't remember how long it took to set up, but probably wasn't too hard because I would have gotten annoyed and quit if it was complicated, LOL. Then you link that new ID.me account to the VA website. There is an icon on the ID.me website which is used to start the process of linking the account to the VA. There are link three or four steps in total including uploading photos of your ID (I used my passport card). This took about 5 minutes. As far as I know, I didn't have an account at the VA website before today. Once that is done, use drop down menu on the home page of ID.me under the section labeled "save money" and select "all discounts". Use the search feature to look for Sunday Ticket and choose either military, teacher, EMT, etc. For whichever you select there will be a link that connects you back to YouTube where you can by Sunday Ticket for $198 or $240 depending on if you want Redzone channel or not. The whole process took less than 15 minutes. Let me know if that works and thanks for your service!

Thank you! I am a veteran and saved a bunch because of this. really appreciate you passing this on!

No. What you are doing is allowed. It’s when you charge people to come watch the game you paid for.

There is a user agreement for everything we stream. Netflix, Hulu, Sunday Ticket. Those user agreements state the terms which we agree to follow as part of the deal for being able to stream. of course none of us ever read them, but we all have to acknowledge them when we sign up.

To me, the guarantee of victory would take away the joy that came with it. When I picture the clock hitting zero in a Super Bowl with the Bills on top I think of all the pain and disappointment over the years and all the angst that will go into the lead up to the game itself, and how they won’t matter anymore. All the previous hurt and worry will actually fuel the joy I’ll have at the Bills finally being champs. If I know we a will win in advance, I won’t get to have that singular moment in the same way.

I think what you are describing is not the issue. Of course you can have friends over to watch the game with you. Same as with PPV, etc. The prohibitions come in if you start charging people to come watch the game at your place and that scenario is covered in the agreement you sign when you subscribe. There is a separate product and pricing structure for businesses like sports bars. I think the gray area comes in with two friends who share the subscription costs. I did that years ago with a friend and I went over to his house every to watch games together. This was before streaming. Now in the streaming age we would have the option of each watching at our own home and I am not sure about the legality or morality of doing that.

I appreciate that brother. go Bills!

NFL fans didn’t help build the NFL. They just bought a product. I buy from Amazon…but I didn’t build it. Jeff Bezos did. As far as what I can afford, I can afford Sunday ticket because I live a very modest lifestyle. I don’t have a car payment, I don’t eat out, I don’t buy TVs or take expensive vacations. My biggest line item in my budget after housing is charitable giving. I can afford Sunday Ticket because of choices I make. If I made different choices and could no longer afford to pay for it I wouldn’t be justified in stealing it. And your point description of people’s piracy as being some sort of protest is not realistic. These “protesters” have more in common with looters who simply take what they want but paint it as some sort of moral stance against corporate greed or whatever. A little suspicion of the motives of any protestor who suffers nothing and gains a benefit for his stand is always warranted.

Okay…so stop consuming their products and feeding their greed. if they are alienating their customers then the customers have every right to reject them and their business. But none of us have any right to their products without paying for them. Their greed doesn’t justify our theft.

First, you are right. Watching your favorite football team live is not a need. Second, even with needs like water, the fact that they are needs doesn't change what it costs to provide them. In a natural disaster, the costs of providing those needs goes up and should be reflected in the price. In fact, in a free market high prices in a time of disaster are a good thing for a few reasons. 1) because they discourage hoarding. If a bottle of water costs $10 people will buy only what they really need therefore rationing the scarce critical resource so that everyone can have it. 2) because the high prices signal a demand from consumers (and they signal a chance for profits for providers)-which incentivizes those providers to provided the critical resources needed. I say that only to say that it is NEVER as simple as greedy and evil-even though thinking that way can be used to justify doing what we want to do. In the end, if one really believes that the owners are being greedy, one should then refuse to feed into their greed by boycotting their product Otherwise, you are left with trying to defend the idea that two wrongs make a right-they are "greedy" so it is okay for me to steal.

How are they ripping you off? The NFL offers a product that comes for a price they are charging. If you think the product is worth the price you buy it. If you don’t, then you don’t. We all love the Bills here. For me, frankly, the idea of not being a Bills fan anymore is analogous to not being a brother to my brother. It’s unthinkable. But that love of the Bills and decades of devotion doesn’t give me any right to someone else’s product that I haven’t paid for. i live in Virginia where I don’t get every Bills game for free like Buffalonians do. I want to watch the games live so I pay for the Sunday Ticket. In the past when I couldn’t afford Sunday Ticket I watched the recorded games on GamePass through NFL.com. Lastly. Why is it that the owners are considered greedy? I notice it is always the other person who is being greedy. I’m certainly not greedy when I try to maximize my salary from my employer and I would assume no one here would consider themselves greedy for doing the same. But an NFL owner wants to maximize the return on his BILLION dollar investment and he is condemned for being greedy. An owner doing the same thing I do-trying to maximize a return on investments-isn’t more greedy than I am just because his net worth has a lot more zeros than mine does.

I liked Solomon coming out of the draft so I may have some confirmation bias going, but I felt like Solomon flashed quite a lot last year-sacks and pressures.
