Injured Seahawks cornerback Tariq Woolen turned to an illegal stream to watch his teammates Sunday. Most anyone who has tried to stream legally can sympathize.
NFL broadcasting has always been an absurd money grab (for instance from 1973 through 2014, a home game could not be televised in the team’s local market if 85 percent of the tickets were not sold out 72 hours before the starting time of the match) and the internet/streaming only made it worse.

I remember my dad being so pissed about this! I’m 48 and think that I’ve heard more games than I’ve watched. By a lot, probably.
