Fubo CEO, David Gandler, is unhappy about Comcast's decision to exclusively stream an NFL Wild Card game on Peacock.
Fubo pays to air NBC, so the decision by Comcast creates competition between the two streaming platforms.
Peacock's exclusive stream of the game reached 23 million viewers, making it the most-streamed event ever for the service.

I found that my interest in football is directly correlated by how easy it is to access the games. If there is any friction I just won't watch the games.

If it's on a TV somewhere, and I am there, I'll watch.

I used to watch all the time but I don't have 3 hours to devote to each game where 2 hours and 45 minutes is talking heads or commercials and you make it hard to find? Nope.

The only football I've be watched this season was a few minutes of a Thursday night game because it was on prime.
