Sunday Ticket is pricey but it costs me far less money than even a single trip back to Lambeau would cost me each year. Before getting Sunday Ticket I would go to the Draft House, a Las Vegas local Packer bar/restaurant, to watch any games not broadcast on national TV. But the cost of food and drinks for my son and I would also cost much more for an entire season than to simply purchase Sunday Ticket. Doing all the side-by-side comparisons for legal viewing, it became far easier for me to rationalize the outlay for Sunday Ticket. Besides, nothing beats the comfort of home and the advantage of being able to be in total control of who sits next to you during the games.
Other than the cost, my only gripes with Sunday Ticket occur when the Packers are one of the nationally televised games and a feed gets switched to a more competitive, non-blowout game, the ability to watch the Packer contest may be lost altogether. The same holds true when the Packers are in the late afternoon game that's being broadcast on national TV and an early game runs into overtime the network will not switch to the late game until the early game has finally been decided. Then they'll go to the studio so that the talking heads can blow hot air and gush over the highlights, plus there's the litany of commercials that accompanies all these post game studio rituals. But it's still not over. Before finally switching to the late game they'll run several more minutes of commercials to get caught-up on the ones you would have seen had the late game not been pre-empted.
DirectTV and the NFL will make errors in their favor, only.
