Oh pshaw! It'll probably be Yellowstone going off and you are much closer to that.

Funny seeing Foxx posting about Fox.

 

Not here, this is the Tampa area.

 

Can you pick up Orlando TV OTA?  Channel 26.3

That is just a little bit too far, from the article the transmitter might be even closer to Daytona. Have a 60 mile antenna that actually does pull in quite a few of the locals. Also in that article it looks like there was some shuffling at the end of the year so I'll have to go through the guide and see whats new and whats out.

 

Like I mentioned though... we do have Comet on Sling Blue. I also noticed that NBC sports is kaput and shifted some of their coverage to USA and one other one. I'll probably look into all of this more on Tuesday when I drop Sling Orange... only keep that one during football season for MNF.

I liked it a lot, what do you think?

 

Seemed a little slow to start, but I'll keep watching.

I think ESPN carries a game on wildcard weekend so you may want to hold on to it for a couple more weeks.

You might try Sling for ESPN. It is somewhat less expensive.

I'm seeing conflicting reports on this... idk.

 

CBS and NBC will broadcast two Super Wild Card Weekend games apiece, while FOX and ESPN/ABC will each have one during the 2021 postseason slate. The Monday night broadcaster is yet to be determined.

 

The NFL expanded the playoffs last season for the first time since 1990, adding a third wild card team in each conference. The expansion was the genesis for Super Wild Card Weekend, featuring playoff tripleheaders on Saturday and Sunday. Beginning this postseason, Super Wild Card Weekend will feature a pair of games on Saturday (4:35 p.m. and 8:15 p.m. ET), three on Sunday (1:05 p.m., 4:40 p.m., and 8:15 p.m. ET), and the finale on Monday (8:15 p.m. ET).

I watch alot of College Football, so I also need Fox Sports.  Combining Sling Blue and Orange is about the same as Hulu or Fubo

I've been slowly falling into the sinkhole of paying for both.  I really should cut the cable cord.

Just caught the first 3 episodes of 1883.  Definitely worth watching

Family watched "Don't Look Up" last night. It was much more enjoyable than I thought it would be.

 

Probably unsurprisingly, about half way through the movie, we realized we were all cheering for the comet.

Haven't seen it, but every review I've read about it basically states "This is a satire criticizing everyone but me!"  Which I find absolutely hilarious.

 

And I'm sure, when I do watch it, I'll find it's a satire mocking everyone but me, of course.

Thanks....on my priority list.  All I needed to see was Sam Elliott.

[Foxx]

Watched, 'The Hunt' the other day. I wasn't going to because of everything that was said about it but I thought I'd give it a go. There are so many underlying currents to the story, I was amazed that someone had not only the gumption to write it but that it was actually produced and made. I think I would have to watch it again to delve deeper into those many underpinnings but don't know that I was all that enthralled to do so again. 

 

Probably be a sequel out at some point.

I looked at the local ABC guide for the next 10 days and the Monday night game is indeed on ABC... so I dropped Orange yesterday... forgot to do it during the week.

Yep, just looked. Late game seems pretty meaningless though... they'll probably both sit starters at least at some point.
