Watching games out of market

I can confirm this is working for me (though the Dev Tools 'trick' step wasn't, so I had to do a slight workaround with a geolocation-hiding Chrome browser extension). Pape suggested I do a step-by-step guide, but here's a Cliff Notes version for now:

1) install a geolocation-changing extension (I opted for one called Change Geolocation (Location Guard))
2) click the extension's Details button to open the details tab
3) click 'extension options' from the details tab
4) enter coordinates for New England as instructed in the other guide
5) close extension tabs
6) clear browser cache
7) sign in to Paramount Plus and find the live channels - you should see WBZ listed
8) if not, clear cache again and sign back in

Hey, is there an option for watching the local Fox affiliate, since it’s not on Paramount Plus?

I'm currently as clueless as you. Maybe someone else will chime in, or I'll break out of my procrastinating habits long enough to nose around the web myself and find out.

It looks like maybe foxsports.com, but you have to have a cable account?

Definitely doesn't look to be of much use to a cable cutter. I do have YoutubeTV but it appears to get location from account info rather than browser geolocation

Silver lining - if I read the schedule right this is the only game that's strictly Fox-affiliate based, so if all else fails I'll hold my nose with a one-off bad stream

get an Amazon stick...jailbreak it (illegal but c'mon...it's the emptiest threat in American history)...then search out web addresses that provide what you're looking for...

Not that I'll be watching the Chiefs and Chargers game, but I'm trying to figure out why CBS chose to show the Ravens-Lions over Mahomes in my area (which isn't Michigan, the Midwest, or Maryland, DC, NoVa). Absurd.

Sorry for the late reply. But sign up for ipvanish or any VPN. Download the fox sports app onto firestick or go to fox.com on your laptop. Connect to a Boston server in the VPN and you will have the local fox channel in Boston. Works for Paramount plus as well.

Yep, that’s exactly what I did. But it refuses to Chromecast onto the tv. Man, they make it tough to watch these football games!

It works pretty good on the firestick.
