I paid a buddy half the cost of Sunday Ticket to give me his access to his Direct TV account so I watch games online. I usually plug my IPad into my big screen TV and it's perfect. He never watched games on a mobile device anyway so it works out well for both of us.

Update: I just called DTV and said I had to cancel Sunday Ticket, money was the issue and I was cutting the unnecessary expenses. The girl was cool, a Chargers fan, and she asked if I would like to keep it at a smaller monthly payment of $43.99 instead of the usual $53.99. I told her that I still needed to cancel, my wife wouldnt go for that. She than offered payments of $33.99 and I took it.. And got the Sunday Ticket-to-go free also, which lets me watch if Im not in front of my TV but have internet access... This on top of me calling a few weeks back and getting $10 per month off my bill, free HD service for 3 months (another $10) and Showtime free for 3 months. So, basically I just knocked over $250 off my DTV bill for the next year with a couple of phone calls... Much thanks Monsta, I really appreciate it...

This is correct. The NFL network has exclusive tv rights on preseason.

Which is also the same reason why going to a sports bar isnt going to help.

Actually, I was able to watch the preseason games down here in Tampa on Sunday Ticket-to-go. It made it nice not to have to wait until they air it the next day.

Our condo owners association does not allow satellite instalation so we're stuck with Comcast in Atlanta. Ergo, I go to the bar. It's the best option especially if you have a few places where you know (or can get to know) the bartender and managers.

Your condo association telling you that is illegal. As per FCC regulations they cannot stop you from receiving over the air satellite signals. They are in violation of federal law...

Here's some proof...

We don't have balconies so any dishes would have to be installed on our building's roof or attached to the exterior facade. The text below is taken directly from the FCC page you linked. Thanks though.

The rule applies to individuals who place antennas that meet size limitations on property that they own or rent and that is within their exclusive use or control, including condominium owners and cooperative owners, and tenants who have an area where they have exclusive use, such as a balcony or patio, in which to install the antenna. The rule applies to townhomes and manufactured homes, as well as to single family homes.

The rule allows local governments, community associations and landlords to enforce restrictions that do not impair the installation, maintenance or use of the types of antennas described above, as well as restrictions needed for safety or historic preservation. Under some circumstances where a central or common antenna is available, a community association or landlord may restrict the installation of individual antennas. The rule does not apply to common areas that are owned by a landlord, a community association, or jointly by condominium or cooperative owners where the antenna user does not have an exclusive use area. Such common areas may include the roof or exterior wall of a multiple dwelling unit. Therefore, restrictions on antennas installed in or on such common areas are enforceable.
