But why should anyone have to break the law to watch the Mets?

They actually would be nice, but my soccer team, all TV rights are owned by corps that want to sell you 200$/month packages, so my team can sell me access to watch their games NON LIVE. Meaning I can watch them... After they've been played which is bullshit.

I wouldn't mind paying 5$/month for my teams games only, but it's not really an option, so pirating it is!

A team I support did exactly this and it was quite successful. I believe it was $60-$70 for the whole season and included ALL home games (League, cup, and Europe) with replays posted on the same day. For me, it was worth it but I watch almost all their games
