I am a businessmen's best friend: buying a shitty, inferior product because I'm addicted enough to it that I'll keep dumping my time and resources into it no matter how bad it is. I wish I had more control, but I can't not watch it.

 

Anyway, I'm flying to Vietnam this weekend. I deliberately scheduled my flights so I wouldn't be in the air during the game, but now I've got to figure out the best way to watch it. I land in San Francisco on layover at 12:30 EST, which gives me a half an hour to check into my international flight before kickoff. Does anyone have recommendations about the best way to watch this? I've never been to the airport in San Fran before… are there sports bars there that'll be showing all the games? Has anybody ever used the NFL instant access or whatever it is to watch games on mobile devices? If so how did it work?

 

Worst case I'll sit there with NFL game center pulled up on my laptop, but I'd rather watch the ass-kicking on an actual broadcast. Much like the 2013 season was sweeter after having watched every poo-ass game of the 2010 season, I expect next year's superbowl run will be that much sweeter for having watched the Saints drop ninety on us in the fuging airport.

 

Thanks and god bless

i think your choices are to watch the game or enjoy your day doing something....anything else.

i vote enjoy your layover or maybe get some rest. the long flight over the oceam will be difficult enough without being pissed off the whole time.

I havent been in the SF airport in like 3 years so I may be confused but.I'm 95% sure there are several bars inside the international terminal. You may have to request the game be put on.because they.mainly have.soccer games on for the.international travelers.

i'll be in an airport terminal from 12:30-4:30. my options are to play civilization v, read, or watch football. civ will drain my brain and i'll spend the flight reading anyway… may as well watch my team play :)

 

the true test will be a week later when i have to wake up at 2am in danang to watch us play the fuging bucs.

Don't bother. Don't put all this energy and stress into watching the Panthers when they don't give a poo. I have finals next week and I'll be spending Sunday in the library

Same here but I'll have the game on in the background so I can laugh at Bell when I take a break

      Another example of Bryce playing chess that casuals wouldn’t notice or appreciate

      I'm probably one of those posters, but I make those posts because there are too many things going on that don't make sense. For instance, how does a RB that does something that hasn't been done in 14 years immediately get reverted back to 2nd string, and it takes a leadership council to make him the starter when he's averaging 3x the YPC? Your average fan shouldn't be screaming that for 2 weeks before the coach sees it. And that's one of many.  What you're seeing is frustration that we could be better, that we should be better, if our owner, FO, and coaches could do things that are so painfully obvious to even the most basic fan

      Cowboys. Patriots. Couldn't ask for two bigger villains.

      I think we're all struggling with what things are right now and what they have been. It's like getting ready to have bandages removed after a long period of injury. The healing, the new growth, they aren't going to be pretty, there's going to be some ongoing issues for a while at best and there's every chance that we're going to have to go back into the bandage situation all over again. And that sucks. But it's also a place where maybe, just maybe, the recovery is going to finally start happening. The bad days will be getting behind us.  It's not going to happen this year, but I believe from what I see that this year is showing that improvement. We focus on the QB because that's what all the pundits focus on, because it's the flashiest and most heralded position on the field. No one wants to put out a tweet about how a center is holding down their job and anchoring a line. They rarely celebrate that blocking tight end or special teams gunner. That fourth CB on the depth chart? Not a mention. And yet, those guys are the kind that we've been building here, we're building the lunch pail guys AND finding some future stars.  Is Bryce one of them? Might be a cornerstone of the team in the future as the second QB, might somehow just show out to end the season. Might flame out like many expect. But if that uncertainty is all we concentrate on, we're just going to miserably look at this team and maybe miss out on some solid green shoots that are finally beginning to poke through into the sunlight.
