On Wednesday afternoon, fans of NFL Football took to social media to voice their displeasure with the news that commercials would be added to the previously commercial free NFL Redzone. NFL Redzone is the popular platform that jumps from game to game showing every score from every game.

It also confirms the fears of many fans that the coverage would change under the control of ESPN, who acquire the program a couple of weeks back…

Let’s go to the posts….

We used to have:

– RedZone without commercials
– Actual sports reporting on ESPN
– Geographic college conference alignment
– Every NFL & CFB game available on a basic cable packagepic.twitter.com/Vi2yMUogcY

🚨 REDZONE HAS COMMERCIALS NOW 🚨

Scott Hanson built a legacy off 7 HOURS, NO COMMERCIALS… and the Network just killed it.

Imagine tuning in for wall-to-wall TDs and getting an ad break instead. 🤯

This is like Chick-fil-A serving food on Sunday.

REST IN PEACE TO THE COMMERCIAL-FREE #NFL REDZONE THAT WE ALL LOVED.

Today is a very sad day… the end of an era.

I can’t believe commercial free football on RedZone is dead. Roger Goodell is a terrorist.

Redzone with commercials is basically sex with a condom. You’re still gunna do it but it’s not gunna feel as good. 😕

ESPN getting their hands on Redzone and immediately hitting the commercials button is so brazen. They don’t even try to pretend they care about the viewer anymore. Despicable organization.

if they’re adding commercials it shouldn’t be a premium channel anymore

i paid for redzone to not watch commercials, if you’re going to show them anyway, i will simply not pay for your channel!!

Awesome work ESPN/NFL!! You got greedy and ruined a good product!! https://t.co/KShdqMTMMw

The only chance we have of ever getting "7 hours of commercial free football" back on RedZone is if people stop paying for it pic.twitter.com/i2luEXbezm

How feasible is a national boycott of Redzone for week 1 https://t.co/Iujcn393eY

How will Redzone channel even work with commercials? The whole point of it is live action updates. If multiple big plays or touchdowns happen during commercials but there is good live action going on, how will they manage that? This literally ruins the channel. Fuck ESPN.
