Sports through the TV App is broken

[Outdoordude01]

I am finding a lot of strange behavior with the Sports functionality with the TV App. First I would love if more apps would get connected. Most of my local teams are on Fox Sports Go which does me no good using the TV app.

But the biggest issue so far is with the NBA. According to the TV App on the Apple TV and other devices I can watch tons of NBA games, except I can't since most are pointing to the NBA app which you need to subscribe to.

What is really annoying is that there is no way to turn it off. I can't remove the NBA app as a source like I can with other apps. Plus, I don't even have the NBA app installed on my Apple TV so it shouldn't be showing me NBA games that aren't on ESPN in the first place.

You'll have to contact the developers of the apps for this to happen. They have to add support for the TV app into their apps. In the Fox Sports Go app go to settings > Feedback and you'll see the address: foes.pt/feedback.

Yeah, I've noticed this as well and also thought it was strange that TV app is showing me content from an app that I don't even have installed. Perhaps there is a special deal in place between Apple and the NBA. I do wish there were more customization features.
