Political Ad Complaint

[Bobby Burton]

A couple of folks have sent me DMs about political ads on our videos and/or podcasts.

On Texas Football has and always will be a place DEVOID of politics. Our purpose here is to be an escape for Longhorns fans to go as deep as they want to about the Longhorns and not politics, etc.

That being said, YouTube and others sell political ads all the time. They have to do it equally among all political parties; it’s the law to do so.

So pls be aware that you may see various political ads just like you do on your TV set during election season. But that is NOT from us or even us taking direct money from any political party. It is YouTube or the programmatic partner.

Here’s to keeping politics out of Texas football!

Hook’Em!!!

I see those ads as well Bobby, but once I switched to premium YouTube (No commercials or ads) they went away--

I have not seen any political ads on OTF or coffee & football.

Unfortunately this is going to be a long year as far as political ads go.

Bunch of softies on the board apparently.   Suck it up buttercup.  If an ad comes on you don’t like just think of a happy place until it’s gone.  No need to complain to Bobby.   For Christ’s sake we wonder why our kids are candy azzez

Same here. I resisted for a long time, but I finally got worn down by the placement and frequency of ads on YouTube. Not just on OTF, but on everything YouTube.

While saving $ after retirement, YouTube Premium is about the only optional item I spring for. I hate to say that I am glad I went Premium because I feel like they whipped me, but whatever...

Thanks to Bobby and crew, I really enjoy all the OTF content without intrusive interruptions.

Hook 'Em!
