We Are Headed For A Potential Nightmare Scenario As YouTube TV Will Be Pulling All Paramount Channels, Most Notably CBS, Just A Month Before The NCAA Tournament

This just cannot happen folks. CANNOT. I think I first found out about cable wars once as a kid when I was like 11 and my Dad explained I think the Knicks games were not being shown because of a dispute with the cable contract. I didn’t fully understand it at the time, filed it away and went back to playing N64 or horsing around with my brothers. 

Then as an adult they started to pop up what felt like all the time. The Mets and SNY, the Knicks again, even ESPN, and now CBS. It’s a horror show. Two different companies both PRINTING money day after day year after year yet they get in a pissing match and affect their customers who are just trying to make ends meet, come home from work and watch a ballgame with a nice High Noon and a Reese’s bar, and maybe order some Raisin Cane’s. It’s a travesty.

Listen, I’m sure there’s things way above my pay grade and the dispute has its legitimacies but someone needs to sit these two down and squash the beef in the next few weeks because the NCAA Tournament is at risk here folks. We need the multi-view!!!! People at their desks need to be able to log onto YouTube TV and watch at their desk. Coworkers need to gamble together, fans need to be able to watch and the country needs to bond! We need this. Figure it out! Bury the hatchet. If I can do it you can do it! 

Final note: There should be a national deadline by Congress that if these two don’t figure this out by the Friday before Selection Sunday, the entire tournament gets moved to Telemundo as a punishment. JUST LET US WATCH!!!!
