We just moved and the only access to TV I have is antenna and Amazon Prime. Is there anybody/any link that might be streaming the SEC Network broadcasts (like Facebook Live)? We don’t watch a lot of TV and really prefer not to pay $40-$50/month for YouTube TV or Sling just to watch a few games a week on the SEC Network. Any info is appreciated.

It is amazing to me that people don't even bat an eye at paying such an exhorbitant amount of money for entertainment, even to the point of forgoing things like healthcare.

I am fairly sure that ESPN+ does not show games that are on ESPN, ESPN2, and ESPNU. I don't have it, but they aren't going to offer a $6/month option for their prime channels. It's just a supplement, and some lower conferences have actually struck deals to use ESPN+.

This sounds correct. Low level, early season UT basketball games and Peyton's Places are the only reason I added it (decent deal with Disney+).

$6.99 for the entire ESPN network would wreck traditional cable. Many sports people would go free OTA + $6.99 in a heartbeat.

I've read that merely the main ESPN channel takes up $5-$6 of a normal cable tv bill. Add espn2, espn+, secn, accn, espnu, espnclassic, etc and it has to be worth 2-3x that.

Not sure what you consider exhorbitant. 100,000 people pay a minimum of $85/ticket for a UT game on Saturday’s in the fall. Many travel, and it can add up to a $1,000 weekend for some people. That $1,000 would pay for almost a year of YouTube tv and internet.

Healthcare is stupid expensive compared to a streaming service. I’m more amazed at the number of people that eat out so much (pre-pandemic).

Well...some also spend hundreds a month on lattes, hobbies (golf, hunting, fishing), or just basic transportation, when a free and clear used vehicle saves THOUSANDS per year...with far less also going to insurance (we're talking 10k/year for the average American)...while the average American is in non-residential debt.

Nothing shocks me anymore...but priorities are personal as well, so to each his own. I just want to retire early 😑 As long as you max out the legal limit to your 401k (~20k/year?) you'll be balling out on a beach somewhere before your skin is even wrinkley (too wrinkley) 🤣

Anyone remember the time when Coach Pruitt chewed the refs ass out 1 week after the bad officiating at bama,they definitely got the repercussions of that..I’m watching this SC game again and boy did he flip a lid over Middleton getting that Targeting call on him👀🔥🔥

Side Note:f*** Matt Austin!
