Craving CBS Sports on Sling TV? We Got You Covered (Unless You're Creepy)
Let's face it, there's nothing quite like the thrill of watching a game that makes your heart leap out of your chest and your voice hoarse from yelling (or, ahem, politely expressing your enthusiasm). But what if your regular cable provider is as exciting as watching paint dry? Enter Sling TV, the streaming service that lets you cut the cord without feeling like you're stuck in the wilderness.
Now, you might be wondering, "Can I snag that sweet, sweet CBS Sports action on Sling TV?" Well, buckle up, sports fan, because we're about to dive into the world of Sling TV and CBS Sports like a wide receiver diving for a touchdown.
But First, a Public Service Announcement
Look, Sling TV is awesome, but it's not some kind of magical sports black market. If you're expecting to watch CBS Sports on Sling TV while chilling in a friend's basement hundreds of miles away, well... let's just say you might be disappointed. Sling TV uses your location to determine what channels you get, so unless you're a master of teleportation (and if you are, hit me up, I have questions), you're outta luck with that scheme.
Alright, Alright, Let's Talk Sling TV and CBS Sports
Here's the deal: Sling TV doesn't actually include CBS in its base packages. That's right, it's not there. Don't panic and throw your jerseys in the hamper just yet. Sling TV offers a few add-on packages that might be your ticket to CBS Sports glory.
-
Sling Blue Sports Extra: This package includes some regional sports networks, but CBS Sports itself isn't always a guarantee. It depends on your location. So, you might be cheering, or you might be left with the sinking feeling of a fumble.
-
FuboTV and Hulu + Live TV: Hold on, those aren't Sling TV! You're right, they aren't, but they are other streaming services that do offer CBS Sports in some of their packages. Just throwing that out there in case Sling TV's offerings aren't your perfect match.
The Bottom Line (and a Parting Joke)
Look, Sling TV is a great option for many sports fans, but it's not a slam dunk for CBS Sports. Do your research (which, let's be honest, is why you're here) to see if it fits your location and channel needs. And hey, if Sling TV doesn't work out, maybe it's time to brush up on your volleyball skills - those neighborhood games are always looking for enthusiastic (and slightly desperate) players.
