DTV ..(Tegna, formerly Gannett)..shakedown..well they just agreed on a multi year contract..so our NBC channel 12 in AZ DTV is back..Playoffs over on Peacock..for now..so cancelled Peacock subscription this morning..Ceo Peacock was crowing about the success..as noted in this article..too bad so sad..it is not the cost, it is the principal..

NBC paid NFL $110,000 to carry playoff game..commercials suck..this is a terrible year in the NFL IMHO..bad taste..and to think Buffalo NY will build a stadium without a dome..and taxpayers will pay for it..and, in Nashville Tenn. another NFL stadium on the taxpayers dime..yup, bad taste in mouth..and we are, were, avid football fans..college football was more exciting ...

Go around the league and check out cost of tickets in any stadium..disgusting..not to mention NFL fans who don't have a smart TV..
