Im planning on pulling it strait out of the air for freesies through the use of untrackable antenna technology from 90 years ago.

    I need to get a better antenna. I can get Fox and ABC, but NBC and CBS must be too far away.

    There are apps/sites that showyou where the antennas for the channels are so you can try to point at the one you want. That might help

    I downloaded an app that came with my antenna that shows where the station broadcast antennas are, but unfortunately the room I’m using it in is on the south side of my house, and the two stations I can’t get are North of me

    Go directly to $p0rt $urge d0t n3t. It's a curated list of free streams like crack streams, stream east, etc. I've been using it since following MMA on reddit 10 years ago. It has everything.

    I got into this for hockey streams. Sometimes, especially for high traffic events (like the super bowl), streams get pretty rough for me.

    Another source that's mostly for soccer streams (if anybody here could benefit from this into) could be found just by googling the words foot and bite, but replace the space between those words with the letter Y. Very handy to be able to find for in the background or on breaks while at work, especially around the world cup.

    You should be able to find a stream somewhere in there. Ad block definitely recommended before visiting any free streaming site!

    Rather bold of you to assume I'll be watching the Super Bowl.

    Not watching at all.

    1. Not watching sport, ever.
    2. Not in US, so don't care.
    3. It's weekend, when we listen to the radio and don't watch TV. (Nothing on anyway)

    Not watching. Sports is boring as fuck to watch. Sports are meant to be an activity to engage in, not sitting on the couch watching someone else have all the fun. Get off the couch, grab some friends, and go throw the ball around!

    OTA TV will probably work, depending on how close you are to a transmitter, you might even be able to get away with an unbent paperclip as an antenna.

    Not watching, I cut the cord to avoid commercials. But OTA + antenna , as others said, is a solid way to watch network content for free if you can get a good signal.

    IPTV, spit the game with watching twitch

    Antenna on roof over here. Just finished checking the alignment. I'm all set!

    Edit: just noticed the community. Might not help. Good luck though.

    Nope, valid answer! Piracy isn't about theft, it's about sharing. Many people pay good money for equipment to be able to share content that they paid for. Nobody gets mad about people visiting friends to watch a movie that only one friend paid for, so most piracy is basically just that but with many friends and without having to visit. Buying an antenna is the original jellyfin server, but on somebody else's schedule, so live sports is the perfect application of this. If I watched sports more regularly at home, I'd absolutely buy an antenna. I'm tired after 3 12-hour shifts (including today) plus my wife is at work, so I don't feel like going out to a sports bar this time. Which is also a valid way to share this content!
