Canceled Sling this morning and switched to YouTubeTV.

Wife is out of town so my plan was to watch football literally all day today. So to say I wasn’t happy waking up to no ESPN or SEC network, is an understatement. Immediately canceled and switched. All day football is back on.

You won’t regret it. Have had YouTubeTV for years and it’s fantastic

DBs were GREATLY improved last year from the previous year.

Decline this year was somewhat expected with personnel

Bingo.

Can't even remember the number of times this was mentioned all offseason. We just lost our 2 best DBs to the draft. Not sure what people expected. And yet so far we are close to holding serve (though I expect that will slip once we get into league play tbh).

So it sounds like YouTube TV, an Amazon firestick (which I've got), and a faster home internet connection is what I need?

Or just a Smart TV. No need for sticks these days.

And if you have family in the same city, you can add something like 5 family members to your YTTV account and split the cost. I was paying $10 a month until the owner finally said just forget it, so now YTTV is free for us lol. All we pay for is internet and a few apps. Took my $220 charter bill down to about $70 with a lot more to watch.

Didn't people know the contract was ending or did they just dump this on people out of the blue?

I didn't have a clue they were cutting it off. I had the Ky/Ole Miss game set to autotune. Dish has had spats with local channels in the past and would run information about it for a week or so. No warning this time

Mine had plateaud out at $165 for dish/phone/internet. I kept calling in and reupping my contact for 2 years and getting the best deal they had going for new customers. It finally jumped to $195 earlier this year (I think it was this year) and I've been thinking about canceling ever since.

Mine was Charter. That may explain a lot.

I think they just dropped it on ppl. My buddy has Sling and said his account renewed on the 29th. There wasn’t a word about what was coming. Just charged his bill like nothing was going on.

How do they think she cheated? I still don't understand why the dude acted like that....sometimes people just go with a feeling and get lucky...that is why it is called gambling.

Likely because there have been very recent scandals involving livestreamed games. The other guy I know of was getting info to his phone. Others surmise a buzzing device would be easy as well. Someone claimed she had what looked to be a device in her pocket idk.

Think they also found it sketchy how she kept bumbling through her explanation and changing it. Apparently did not line up with her previous play either. Logically, it just makes close to no sense. J high isn't even a bluffcatcher.

That said, I'm not saying she did cheat. I have no strong opinion. Like you said, sometimes players are really that lost. Just explaining what Garrett has been saying.

I think Iowa covers the spread at least, possibly beats Michigan today. But if Corrum has another huge game against this Iowa defense I think he becomes a Heisman frontrunner. Because nothing says a Tennessee Vol getting screwed for the trophy like a Michigan player having a good season.

I think Miss State beats A&M.

Iowa’s defense is good enough to keep it closer to around that spread line I think, but I think it’ll be really tough to beat that spread. That offense is TERRIBLE. Worst offense in the Big 10 by a wide margin.

Run our YouTube TV on either Xbox or smart tv. If you don’t have one of those, then need a stick for sure

We've got a newer smart TV in the living room and an older Samsung TV in the bedroom that had apps built in. That's why we bought the firestick, I think my wife wanted to watch the Peacock app and we couldn't download the app on our bedroom TV

Will be interested to see what Ark can do to Bama today... No doubt if they keep it close, watch for the refs to slowly take over the game like when they played TX... That is why I am not convinced unfortunately that we can beat bama until we are able to blow them out...

We don't play Ole Piss for a while so I hope they expose KY...

Auburn needs to have a good physical game and rough up LSU...
