- Fubo CEO, David Gandler, is unhappy about Comcast’s decision to exclusively stream an NFL Wild Card game on Peacock.
- Fubo pays to air NBC, so the decision by Comcast creates competition between the two streaming platforms.
- Peacock’s exclusive stream of the game reached 23 million viewers, making it the most-streamed event ever for the service.

Seeing as most sports team stadiums are publicly funded, maybe we should broadcast the games on public access.
You don’t understand, they are privatising the profits while taking the costs out of taxpayers pockets, it’s really smart, if you’re a turbocapitalist.
Can’t anyone think about jobs these stadiums create? Back in my day, getting underpaid to serve nachos to drunk sports fans who just want to grab your ass was a privilage.
I’m just waiting for us to go full circle where the majority are just listening to the radio for the broadcast about the game.

I’m sorry my guy but how in the world are you suggesting pirating live television
There are lots of ways to sail the high seas when it comes to live tv. Lots of pirate streams out there.
If you have the urge to watch sports or take a bite of the NFL then there are ways, matey
I absolutely hate that sports, especially the NFL, is getting locked behind streaming services. Football is my favorite sport, but I will not pay to have every streaming service to watch games. I know I’m probably the outlier here. It’s decisions like this that will promote illicit streaming of the games. Take something that was free and put it behind a paywall and people will find a way to get it for free again.
