Hot Buffalo Wings Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 How many bars are open at 9:00 AM on a Sunday ?? Bleacher Bar in Boston (Bills Backers) opens @ 11am, SON! I could catch halftime there. I know this because I had to wait outside for it to open in order to watch Bryce Brown fumble my hopes through Scott Chanlders 7 hole and then out of the back of the endzone that day.
BuffaloHokie13 Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 Should we start taking bets for how soon after kickoff people will start bitching about the glitches You think it will take until kickoff?
Nick the Greek Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 Anyone know if you can stream the game using Roku?
Tenhigh Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 You think it will take until kickoff? They've already started, and it's barely June.
ddaryl Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 Why not invite your friends over and have a bloody mary party at your place? Could be fun. Have the ladies wear pajamas.... I for one hate direct TV. The only decent thing about it is the football package, and it's unfair that the rest of us have to choose their terrible cable service if we want to watch out of market football. Personally, I usually go to the bars on Sundays too, but I would greatly prefer to watch football all day on Fios at home. Unfortunately, the best case we have is to wait until 2022 for the contract to expire. Unless DTV goes under before then.... weird.. I think DirecTV rules the planet over any cable company when it comes to TV subscriptions. In fact every-time I have to use cable I am reminded how terrible it is, and how much I prefer DirecTV that being said I'm not signing the petition
Numark3 Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 (edited) Should we start taking bets for how soon after kickoff people will start bitching about the glitches Sure, I'll take 4 months after people bitched about it being streamed online for free Edited June 3, 2015 by Crayola64
thurst44 Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 More people can see it online than DirecTV....Most people have internet....not everyone has DirecTV. What's your reasoning? Have you ever tried to watch anything on Yahoo! Screen? If so, I hope you've had better luck than I have -- it tends to buffer and freeze a lot; it's hard to pair with any casting device. I love "Community," and feel this has been a great season, but am now episodes behind, b/c it's just near-impossible to try to watch. Hopefully they will grow by leaps and bounds by then, but it's definitely valid and not overly petty to protest a "free" thing if it's something that is time-sensitive, for which you are currently paying, and which now you may not be able to get. Should we start taking bets for how soon after kickoff people will start bitching about the glitches If you cannot watch the game, are you not going to be upset? The Bills Bars in NYC go crazy when the satellites go down. This seems the most basic of fan desires, the ability to actually watch the game.
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 I don't know about this petition. But I have faith in DTV. They will figure something out. Maybe a recorded broadcast shown at 1 pm est?
MOFO Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 weird.. I think DirecTV rules the planet over any cable company when it comes to TV subscriptions. In fact every-time I have to use cable I am reminded how terrible it is, and how much I prefer DirecTV that being said I'm not signing the petition I agree DTV is so much better than cable...you can negotiate discounts all the time... I also will not sign the petition, but rather, will add this game as a reason that I should again get the Sunday ticket for free. Has that thread been started yet?
Lurker Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 Do you realize how much bandwidth you'd need? Also data reserves if you're going to connect by phone. In April I used my cell modem to watch the Masters on my laptop and it used up my monthly data allocation in just a few hours (and I had to pay an overage charge). Not doing that again...

So what time are we coming over to your house, and can you send pics of the girls coming in pj's? Just kidding and not a big deal. I'm just hopeful as I just changed out and have all internet TV's that I can enjoy not on the laptop.
todzilla Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 I was just thinking about a Bills Breakfast party. A nice casserole, donuts, and of course bloody Mary's. I've never streamed on yahoo but I've used WWE Network to watch wrestlemania live and it worked great. Clear HD picture and no slow downs at all, and this is on the big screen through Apple TV. I'm not sweating it too much.
Mike in Horseheads Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 chromecast I'm sure they will put yahoo at the top of the list.

This seems the most basic of fan desires, the ability to actually watch the game. I haven't had an issue watching Community on Apple TV. It's basically the same quality as Netflix has been and I have the cheapest internet only package through Time Warner. Not saying this to discount your experience, but it could be something else causing the problems.
Mr. WEO Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 proof that any offseason thread can get at least 2 pages..
BillsBytheBay Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 Why am I mad that I got the same free ice cream cone as everyone? Because I paid for a banana split!
The Real Buffalo Joe Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 You pay $1.22 a game with Sunday Ticket. They'll credit you and round it up to $1.25 for the inconvience.
Kelly2Reed Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 ESPN ticker stated game will be shown in local markets on TV
Just in Atlanta Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 No way. This is a great thing for football fans, and technology. Why are people so attached to their cable and satellite providers? Just hook your TV to the Internet already.
