NFL Sunday Ticket On Your Laptop

I had it last year and it was great on the rare occasion I had to run errands on sunday.
It was $50 on top of the sunday ticket price.

Exactly going to bar to watch a game you are talking $40 - $50 a week.

You can get by for about $12/week with a burger sodas and a tip.
I do this when I need to...I have a slingbox with a buddy in Annapolis...
I sling about 2/3rds of the games and have to go to a bar about 5 times...that is far less than $350.

Yeah it sucks...expecially since there is no audio...but if you really want to get serious...use a radio and earbud while you are there.

Just go to a bar. It's cheaper. I live in Philly and go to the Fox and Hound in the city. The group of Skins fans is the 2nd largest, only to the Eagles crowd. Less money. More fun. And, no dishes to do afterward.

Over the course of 16 games? Even if the Skins are nationally broadcast here for 4, that leaves 12 games where I'd have to head to a bar.

Factor a meal and about 4-5 beers and I'm spending at least $25 a trip (if you're there for a game there's no way you should be spending any less than $25, otherwise you're kind of being a chintze, IMO). Times 12 games, that's $300.

Plus gas, plus the inconvenience of having to leave the house, plus often not having audio, plus being around Eagle fans...

**** that. Worst idea ever. I'd much rather watch it at home.

You're spending 3-4 hours at a bar and only giving them $12 of business? Does your waitress roll her eyes at you? She should.

The waitstaff must love you, they get to wait on for 4 hours and get a $1.80 tip. Sorry I am not that cheap and if you are wearing the walkman also while sipping your soda for 4 hours you my friend are a nerd.

You can also get by with water, a lemon and some sweet and low if you want to go really cheap!

Sorry the bartender in me just hates folks like you.

Also keep in mind you are taking up a seat or even a full top (if you are at a table) that could be used on a well spending customer.

Skinsnut in the bar, just finished his burger and ready to settle into 3.5 hours of free football and refills on his sodas.

Skinsnut you rock!!!
