Seriously how are they going to have game 5, with the Cup in the building, only on a cable channel in the US?! Not even on ESPN+! ๐

I don't understand this post - the game is on TNT like all the SCF games have been so far? TNT is available by default in like every provider package, it's just not OTA. It's way more readily available than NBC sports ever was.
SN is Sportsnet - Canadian sports channel.
In previous years, games where the Cup was in house to be presented were on NBC over-the-air. I could bust out an antenna to watch. Cable subscriptions are increasingly unpopular and replaced with streaming platform subscriptions. This article shows 2-5 million cable subscribers a year dropping cable for the last 7 years, with fewer than half of households still having a cable subscription.
Yeah it's kinda lame, I just watched previous years over broadcast with my antenna no problem. This year if I want to watch these games I have to go find an illegal stream.
