Since it was launched in 1994, Sunday Ticket has called the cable service DirecTV home.
However, last December, it was announced that both Sunday Ticket and the much-loved RedZone were making the move to streaming, thanks to YouTube.
The deal was reportedly worth $14billion across the next seven seasons, as per CNBC.
However, evidently, Russo is far from keen on Sunday Ticket's new home.

"Put the d**n games on regular TV! And I can't do it because they make it so f***ing complicated," he yelled.
If this wasn't enough, Russo went on to claim: "I'm sick of it! Enough!
"You're going to drive me to my grave! You're going to drive me to reading books about Oppenheimer! Enough of this!"
As far as Russo is concerned, operating the service is "Impossible!" as per the New York Post.

He also claimed that "All they want to do is lose money!" adding: "The only reason I put on YouTube is to put on an old David Crosby interview."
Ultimately, Russo's frustration appeared to boil down to one fact: "In this age, in 2023, if you are not tech-savvy with your televisions and all of your 'devices,' you're finished — finished!"
Unfortunately for Russo, it appears some fans disagree with his sentiment.
One such listener took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to comment: "Hahaha this rant to open the show was pretty epic. Classic Doggie.
"But it's not that difficult. Far from it actually. Plenty of opinions that don't involve a new TV. But he'll need one if he wants 8 games at once. Haha."
A second added: "It's literally easier now than ever to watch the Sunday ticket lmao. Boomer problems."
As another took the opportunity to complain about the price of Sunday Ticket, commenting: "Way too expensive!!!"
