Philadelphia-area sports fans who want to drop their cable or satellite TV package and still watch Phillies, Flyers and 76ers games have a new option that will let them have it both ways.
The paid streaming service fuboTV announced Thursday that it has signed a deal with NBCUniversal to add all of the network's national and local channels to its online offering. The deal includes Comcast SportsNet Philadelphia and The Comcast Network.
This gives local sports fans an option besides Comcast's, Verizon FiOS' and RCN's cable packages for watching games that CSN and TCN televise. Besides the Phillies, Flyers and 76ers, CSN and TCN also broadcast Union soccer games and a wide range of local college football and basketball.
