Starlink will be better than a mobile hotspot for sure. I'm not sure what options are out there for mobile satellite setups but for streaming I prefer hulu with the espn + option because I can watch every game imaginable, I'll watch ivy league games, small fcs games and even some d2 games.

I agree, I use Hulu live also, with the ESPN+ package. Get every thing I ever got on regular tv and more sports. Also less expensive then cable. But patience required, navigation not as easy as cable tv for sure.

Starlink to smart tv. Smart tv app for game viewing.
I use Youtube tv.
I used to use satellite tv and it is such a pain in the butt when compared to the ease of starlink.

$349 for the hardware, plus $20 for shipping, plus tax, plus $120/month for the service. They are also charging a one-time $100 "congestion charge" in my area, but that might not be the case where you are.

Yeah, that's a good deal if you qualify, but you still have to buy the hardware.

You can get free shipping or pick it up if you buy the hardware from Best Buy.

I got mine before the mini was born so I spent more. I have a roaming or on the move plan that costs me $160/month.
I can use the Starlink while moving. If you're going to be stationary, the plans are cheaper.

I forgot how much I spent. I bought the Tailgater dish, had to buy the receiver and a month to month plan.
I forgot to mention the Starlink can be month to month also. It can be activated through the app during football season and discontinued when not needed/wanted.
I've heard good things about Starlink mini - wish it was around when I purchased.
In any event, I got 10+ years out of the Tailgater setup and anticipate the same out of the Starlink.
