Neither I nor anyone else is throwing mud at you or blaming you in the least . The point is to deal with the reality of the situation . This thread is an attempt to directly deal with this situation on our own .
If you can offer any options , I'll be very glad to read it in a PM if need be.

As much as I love the packers, there's no way I'm paying for premium channels. I've got an antenna for most games and for others, there's bars.

I've detailed this rant many times before, but why is it okay for a Bar to show a game to dozens of people whom they profit from but not okay for someone to stream a local feed for a few dozen non-profit-from online buddies? I don't think THAT is the issue. I think the issue is more on the lines of that local feed viewed by dozens turning into hundreds, turning into thousands, turning to tens of thousands. Either way, if we're watching the game, why does it matter how? Why should someone in PA be forced to watch the Steelers if they prefer Packers? Equality my ass!!! haha

As much as I too love to view and drink at Bars, if I and others could afford such an extravagance ,
then also I could afford to upgrade my media services. That would then make this thread unnecessary .

I'll try Zero's solutions and check Yahoo as well , perhaps one will work without having to jump through to many hoops first . I will see or not see tonight .

Not sure about your local stations, but my local CBS station will be having the game on tonight.

Other option if you have Amazon Prime you can stream the game. If you don't have Prime already, you could sign up for the free trial, and cancel it since this is the only packer game on Thursday this year I believe.
The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

You are spot on , CBS will be showing the game . Who Knew ? Thanks !

It still leaves the problem to a future early Sunday GB game. Never too early to solve a problem though .

Yahoo did stream last Sunday;s game , but I thought that the NFL Network had a tight grip on the Thursday night contest . I would be pleasantly surprised if Yahoo does stream the Thursday night games.

According to NFL.com, Thursday Night Football is being carried by CBS, NFL Network and Amazon Prime Video Stream

And now think I remember Tony Romo said he was gonna call the Thursday Night Packers game as well.
