Just be sure to check if your local CBS affiliate is included – it's like having a VIP pass to the game, but on your couch.
- FuboTV: This service boasts a channel lineup that's a sports fan's dream, including CBS. It's a bit pricier than some, but if you crave live sports and all the bells and whistles, FuboTV might be your champion.

Be a Stream-Savvy Sleuth
Before you jump in, do a little detective work. Check the channel lineups of different streaming services to see which one carries your local CBS affiliate. This is crucial! You don't want to miss your hometown heroes because you chose the wrong streaming service (although, let's be honest, sometimes watching your team lose can be entertaining too).
Tip: Reread tricky sentences for clarity.
Bonus Tip: Free Trials are Your Friend
Many streaming services offer free trials. Take advantage of them to test the waters and see which one best suits your needs. Just remember to set a reminder to cancel before the trial ends, unless you want to be surprised by a surprise charge (not the fun kind of surprise).
