Redzone Channel coming to YouTube TV.
Switched to YouTubeTV from Vue about a year ago, love YouTubeTV. At the time, it was only missing NFL Network, Redzone and MTV from channels I'd normally watch. Now they have all 3. I don't mind that they raised their rate to $65 or whatever it is. Well worth it IMO.

This is the first channel they've expanded/added that I would actually watch.
Nevermind, its for an added fee on top of the $65 they just raised it to. Im out!

For $65 + you might as well have normal Cable or DirecTV.
Online providers prices should not be the same since they don't have to pay for the infrastructure and such.

Shit, how much?
I didn't realize that.
I'll probably just pay for it during NFL season, then turn it off accordingly.

Funny enough, I actually prefer the streaming model (use from phone, cast to any of the home TVs, syncs with my google home speakers, no need to find the remote lost in the couch somewhere) to regular cable, even if they were priced the same

Trubisky was named the starter so keep that in mind in your drafts.

Why would the number of leagues be down?
I bet they are up. People want sports in their life and online is now the way to go with what is going on.

Easy answer... uncertainty and market.
#1 - DFS has put a dent in typical seasonal fantasy football.
#2 - With fairly static rosters, a lot of people don't want to dump money into a situation where games may be canceled, players randomly don't play, entire rosters disappear.
I used to run 5 money leagues. Last year I was down to 3. This year, I'm running 0 seasonal leagues. I canceled 1, turned 2 over and those 2 are merging to form 1, due to reason #2 above.
I'll be running 1 league on FanDuel or DraftKings, so people can switch players each week, if something happens. Plus I don't have to deal with adjusting payouts, if entire weeks get canceled.

From Aug. 12-Sept. 5, the NFL administered 64,058 COVID-19 tests to players ... and there were 5 new confirmed positive tests. Total.

hopeful that the season will be fun to watch. Almost no one here is talking about football tho which is very strange.

I am usually dying for football season to start for gambling purposes and zero percent of me feels like this is NFL week 1. Just a weird year with everything going on

Yea, definitely weird.
I haven't been feeling that anticipation either. But I just looked at the NFL and CFB schedule for this weekend, and it's building up just a little bit!

I'm definitely cursing PS Vue for being gone tonight. Also cursing YouTube TV for not offering the 4 multi-screen option.
I'm gonna have a TV, a laptop, and a phone going with games tonight between NBA playoffs, CFB, and NFL.

I can watch them all on YouTube TV, I just miss PS Vue allowing me to watch them all on my TV at the same time.
