Fox is milking the Cowboys

[Galian Beast]

Have to say I'm pretty furious with the way this works. I live in Massachusetts, so obviously I don't get local Cowboys games, but I cut the cord because I didn't want to pay 100+ a month for cable.

In order to watch Cowboys games I purchased NFL Sunday Ticket (Go), but I think in 9 games, I've watched only one Cowboys game on it, because Fox decides to play the Cowboys over all other games in my region thus blacking out the games. I had to purchase PlayStation Vue to watch the games on an iPad....

They don't make it easy being an out of state fan, but Fox is now making it significantly more difficult just because the Cowboys are doing so well...

Just can't win as a Cowboys fan...

Buy a cheap HD antenna and watch local channels for free?

This is where the NFL is still a dinosaur and it's gonna kill their product in the future if they don't make all their games more available.

It's pretty ridiculous that in 2016 you can't watch whatever game you want to watch but on Saturday I can watch any of 120 college football teams

I've watched ever game on national tv I think.. Sunday ticket has been a waste of money.

You can watch them on the FoxSportsGo app and stream with Chromecast if you have any friends that will share their cable or DirecTV account details with you.

Except the Cowboys aren't local. And Fox won't play all the Cowboys games, so I'll still need something to watch the games where they don't decide to milk the Cowboys...

Cut the cord, invest in a jailbroken tv box and use reddit nfl streams to watch any game you want.

I missed the first few minutes. Did Dak cough it up on the opening drive ?

Not sure I follow. If they aren't played locally then you should get the game on Sunday Ticket.

This is what I do....

The Cowboys aren't a local team so I can't rely on Fox to play their games. Since they are winning so many games this year, Fox has decided to play their games almost every week. As a result I have to spend a ton to cover my bases just to watch these games.

Think I'll combine an antenna with sunday ticket so at least I don't have to pay for the IPTV

Local as in a local broadcast. Today the game is a national broadcast by Fox so if you had an antenna then you could have picked up Fox for free.
