Did you like Chuckie on the call? He went to my high school in st joe

Gonna shit down the mutts throats on Saturday. Should be a very enjoyable watch

I thought him and King McClure were pretty good for newbies

Same. And if it's not for the greedy ****ing cable/satellite providers and so forth, my greedy ****ing ISP has a data cap, so if I streamed everything I would just end up paying those assholes more in the process.

Dish is currently the least of the evils for me with the most upside, but I'm also relatively picky in that I want NHLN and get some college hockey games, and will sometimes catch things on B1G and the ACC Network, etc.

Granted, if I dropped it and just went ESPN+ and YouTubeTV or Sling or Hulu, I'm sure I'd survive.

Better than many out there actually.

I still don’t get why we’re doing them this favor at all in playing them again, but at least it will be more interesting than the average non-conference game.

Holy shit, that would be horrible man. Whos your ISP? Can't imagine getting data capped unless I was doing some really egregious usage.

I think it was @Texas maybe. I think Wilson had an open lane for a layup to tie, but he tripped or lost the ball on his way up. Something like that.

I’ll look it up.

I got the Disney+/Hulu/ESPN+ package. I just didn’t want to **** with streaming a game, going to a bar etc. I’ve got a gig of fiber for work stuff so my as well use the bandwidth after hours.

mcloure needs some seasoning but at-least he kept it real. Him saying that they need to play better than most teams basically saying utep sucks. People ususally dance around just saying the other team sucks good on him forbeing a straght shooter

What is your cap? When I dropped the satellite a few years ago and went to all streaming, I was a little concerned about going over my data. But that has not been an issue you for me, even when wife was working from home during COVID and daughter was in school at home. I have Cox and theirs is like 1200/mo. The thing I love about the streaming services (my main is Youtube TV) is that I can drop them at any time and, unlike satellite companies, there is no penalty.

I didn't remember much about McClure at Baylor but I thought he did a great job on the broadcast. :thumb:

700/month, but they have several levels between 600 and over a terabyte.

700 isn't unattainable, but not easy to hit, either. They used to auto bump you to the next tier after hitting it 3 months in a row, but now at least "only" charge $10/100GB as you go over.

I use about 10GB/day right now and that's been with pretty light streaming lately, and 700 comes out to 23/day.... I also set my Fire stick and Netflix down to 720p, which isn't noticeable enough to care and I think saves like 50% data usage over 1080 (it's also on a smaller TV in the bedroom). I might be screwed if I streamed any 4k content though.

And yeah, the contracts suck, especially when they can remove channels whenever they want. Losing an OTA channel for all these weeks will probably be the last straw.... considering canceling the last ~6 months after the NHL playoffs are over, since the $20/month to cancel plus streaming options would be less than keeping it around.

With the amount of gaming from my boys & streaming from my girl (and myself on both accounts), we kept blowing by our limit. Finally figured out that Cox offers a $50 unlimited data plan and jumped on it.

If you live in KC that's a limited option for ESPN+ games. Maybe its changed since I accepted watching those at home, but when the whole deal first started I couldn't find a bar that had access to ESPN+ except for Johnny's Tavern and one local place where the owner is a KU fan and attached a Roku to one of the TVs.
