    Best service for watching NFL/NCAA this fall

    My situation:
    casinos are too packed to watch football, want to stay home watch games this fall.

    My apartment doesn't allow DirectTV or Dish-satellites are not allowed.

    I just upgraded internet speed. Streaming might just be the way to go.

    Information would be helpful since I cut the cord.

    Thanks

    SlingTV might be the answer. DirecTV has a online service too.

    I took a look and it says $49.95 per month that offer 114 channels in my area with almost every sports channel I would need. I watch the youtube mlb game of the week periodically and the picture is excellent with no buffering. This would be acceptable at that price. Are there taxes on the service and if so are they substantial? Thank for any assistance.

    Is it easy to set up on a desktop? I am old school. That price is very attractive.

    If you go through cox they usually hav a promo on all sports channels for $5-$7 per month. Gets you everything and cancel whenever. At least you won’t have to deal with any potential buffering issues.

    If you're going to pay a provider like Sling or YouTube TV... you might as well start studying IPTV like NitroTV etc. Gritter is right about possible buffering at times. That's enough to annoy anyone... but some other posters have mention... it's not an issue for them....

    If I were in your shoes Darrell... and had no other options... I'd go with an IPTV provider.

    Probably going to do this.

    But I am still going to shop around to find what's best.
    I just hate cable. Paying for a bunch of shitty channels like CNN,MTV,ON,Nickelodeon, and dozens more. If I could avoid that crap, I will.

    Download Smarters TV, then signup with Nitro.

    I assume you have Windows.
