Cord Cutting-How to watch college/pro sports?

Good luck. I've tried cutting 4 times over the last 10 years, still end up going back to basic Directv (it's not cable!) so I didn't spend half the day prior to a game trying to figure out where it was going to stream, and then just sitting at my desk at home office watching on the monitors (what good is an HD TV?). The apps on the TV are even more of a pain in the ass. Decided it wasn't worth all the hassle.
And, I can record the games on DTV, which is important for me here in Denver with the time difference.

Can we pin these since it comes up every third week?
It’s so easy. I pause it after March madness all summer until football. The DVR even keeps recording the shows so you can catch up. Plus I use it camping.
Hulu,Disney ESPN + package. 85 dollars a month and covers about everything. 25 games at any given moment on Saturday during football and basketball. It has SEC, Big10, ACC networks Fox sports 1 and 2 aswell as NFL network they show what ever team is in the red zone (about to score) so you get all action there. It's streaming so you need wifi. You get log ins and can watch you stuff anywhere. I recommend this product. You get all rhe network TV aswell A&E, FX TNT all that too. Check it out
At this point I've given up trying. Do my annual call to Spectrum to lower rates. Subscribe to all the streaming stuff. Is what it is.
I’m done paying for it. The only thing I even care about is UK games. Other than that, I won’t miss it.
get a firestick and get it broke.........

CNN is owned by Warner bros , ATT by its shareholders .
Why Directv over something like YouTubeTV, though? YouTubeTV has everything you could want plus no hardware or contracts. And cheaper than Directv.
You don’t have to jailbreak androids any more. The options to run unsigned code (I.e. apps people make to stream sports) are freely available in the settings.
I want Kentucky basketball and NASCAR. I found no way to watch these without one of the major streamers (youtubetv, fubo, etc) . If not for that, I could live with Peacock. 6 hours a week of OnPatrolLive and I'm good.
YouTube TV. I turn it on first week of football and turn it off when basketball season is over.
You do still need to enable developer options to allow downloads from unknown sources. Still a simple task and not quite the same as the old jailbreak days.
Yeah, but it’s right there in the menus and all you gotta do is click. No more jamming cords into it and rooting at a command prompt lol
Hulu live/youtubetv has everything and dvr...
Yes, YouTube tv and Hulu live. Probably a few more but those are the most popular
On the quasi-legal apps, it’s just arranged by the game you want to watch. Like, you don’t have a dedicated WGN or ESPN stream, you just look for the Cubs vs Cardinals game and click on it.
Officially, you can use the EPSN app but you’ll need a login with a provider such as spectrum, YouTube tv, dish, etc etc. If you have a friend who doesn’t mind sharing and you throw him $10-$20 a month, that’s the easiest way. They’ve started to limit the amount of consecutive stream per account so don’t share it too much.
CBS usually streams it’s National games on the CBS sports app for free.
If you can find a family member with a TV package you can download the ESPN app and watch most of the games. That app seems to run better than some of the free stuff I get on the firestick.
Most people don’t even know they have login credentials at all. My parents had zero clue they could use their Spectrum info to log in to apps. My buddy kept calling me to see if I knew where to stream games so he could watch on his phone and I’m like “YOU PAY FOR DISH, YOU HAVE LEGAL ACCESS,” but he had no clue what his login or password was lol
Can you get every Kentucky basketball game with YouTube TV?
It’s just like cable. You get ESPN and SEC network and all that junk. You can run the YouTube TV app on a roku, firestick, PlayStation 4/5, your phone, etc.
Of course, it’s no different than having a package with Directv, etc. I switched to YouTubeTV from Directv 4 years ago and haven’t missed out on anything. In fact it’s better because the DVR is unlimited.
I like YouTubeTV pretty well. Since they have family sharing, Me and two friends all split it. Even with a higher package and 4K Sports pack, we all pay around $30 a month.
I keep cable for normal stuff. But I down loaded PLAYERSKLUBIPTV.com and use it for getting all the pay channels, HBo, Showtime, etc, and MMA and boxing PPV for free. You also get any sports and like 1,000 locals from all over, NFL Sunday ticket, you name it. Search for it in your Firestick apps and download the bootleg program. It will buffer some every now and again, but it's free. Watched the Jake Paul / Nate Diaz ppv with it. Numerous other THINGS to watch , some not family friendly lol.
YouTube TV bro. Easy as hell. I have UK football and basketball on like season mode so it records all the games. Unlimited DVR. Love it.
If you have a friend or family member willing to share their credentials (Spectrum, Xfinity, Hulu Live, etc), then Channels DVR is a wonderful option for $80 per year.
