How many of you miss games not broadcast in your area?

Seeing another thread made me think of this. How many of you miss games because they are not "Broadcast," in your local area?

Also, the NFL Game Pass can be had for pretty cheap and will allow you to watch every game as soon as they end if watching games is a problem for you.

I live in Los Angeles and probably get 70-80% of Cowboys games shown locally here.

When they’re not on locally, I either stream the game from home (not ideal but doable) or hit a sports bar.

No, I don’t miss games unless it’s absolutely unavoidable.

I can't miss a game. I can't even DVR it.

Last one I didn't attend or watch was December 30 1990, when Babe Laufenberg couldn't get us past Deions Falcons and into the playoffs.

Had to work some Sundays that year.

People in my life just know I'm not going to miss games and it's never been a problem. Both women I married were told this on first dates lol. Full disclosure!

I overpay for Sunday Ticket and will never go without it again. Kinda sucks sometimes though because all but 3 Cowboys games have been broadcasted locally in my area, but I value the peace of mind. I haven't missed a game since the Bengals game in 2016, and I had that on the radio on the way back from the casino.

For instance, if I didn't have Sunday ticket, I'd miss the game Sunday because the NFL thought it was a good idea to flex the sub .500 Saints and Panthers into a 4PM game.

I only miss games when my kids want to go play.

The 4pm games are tough when it's nice outside in the winter(S. FL) and it's not hell on earth.
As long as the Cowboys are doing well, it seems I'll get them 13-14 games out of the year here. 2-3 games I'll have to stream.

The streaming options and quality nowadays are so much better than what I remember it being 5-6 years.

Yes, a will.....and satellite TV. Lol.

I know guys that watch most of the games but will miss them here and there for like weddings (pfft) or if it's not on locally they won't go to a bar...etc.

I dont see how they live with themselves lol.

The 2 to 3 games not televised nationally requires us to go to the local sports bar. Only game I missed this year was our horrible loss to the Broncos. Had the RZ on. There weren’t many highlites…
