Same here. I resisted for a long time, but I finally got worn down by the placement and frequency of ads on YouTube. Not just on OTF, but on everything YouTube.

While saving $ after retirement, YouTube Premium is about the only optional item I spring for. I hate to say that I am glad I went Premium because I feel like they whipped me, but whatever...

Thanks to Bobby and crew, I really enjoy all the OTF content without intrusive interruptions.

Hook 'Em!

 

 

Nothing to do with politics but my wife and I have been listening to a book titled “Die With Nothing.”  It is an interesting perspective that makes a lot of sense when you hear all the reasoning.  

Complaining to Bobby about YouTube ads is like calling tech support when your power goes out.

when the folks are complaining about the political ads , at least they are leaving Coach Flood alone. “Hookem “

Of course not.  I was just commenting on YT execs pissing off their prospective clients.  Seems a bit counter productive to me.  

 

If someone is mad over a political add on YouTube they are a Beta...... The thread started here the other day about it was embarrassing.

This is the lamest and most unnecessary thing I’ve ever read on here, and that is saying a lot.

I think the AI pics and posters playing grab a$s with each other is worse but we all got our opinion 

Being triggered by a political ad that doesn't align with your viewpoint just shows how soft we have become as a nation.

I share the same disdain for the political themed thread. I come here for football.

I do however wonder if you keep the same energy of calling people who you don’t know but disagree with Betas in person as you do from behind your keyboard/phone.

Politics, name calling, and categorizing people as inferior are all things/content I can get anywhere if I want to. I’d prefer not to get any of it here.

I feel personally attacked.

Bobby, I totally agree. Can banish the people doing this?

One of the reasons I joined this site was because there is a zero politics policy on the sports board. I 100 percent support that stance.... As stated OTF has no control of the adds run by Youtube and to be triggered by them is odd. I have seen them and some are definitely of candidates I would never support. They did not bother me. 

 

To answer your other question. Yes I would definitely say that to a persons face. Anyone here that knows me knows I am the exact same person online as in person.... I do not hide behind a screen name. Never have never will. My avi is a pic of me. I attend home games and most road game. Attend Basketball and many baseball games too. Again I do not hide behind a computer.... thanks 

Not that big of a deal. It’s free for crying out loud and YouTube places ads to make money . It’s a profit deal.
