Yeah I’m a YouTube tv guy. However the ESPN+ sounds like a possibility. I’ll miss Tripp, Mike, and Hannah, oh and the hope of seeing my Marley Drug girl again. Oh well, one can dream.

It’s a little funky at times. I need to restart my iPad, connect VPN to some other server in states and then open ESPN app and watch game, usually I cast to Apple TV so it’s on my main tv. Works well though.

Also choose hurricanes stream so I get Tripp and team

https://sports.yahoo.com/amazon-takes-minority-stake-in-bally-sports-networks-will-stream-games-on-amazon-prime-161333935.html

Amazon is now a minority owner of Diamond Sports Group’s Bally Sports regional networks.

Diamond announced Wednesday that Amazon had taken a minority stake in the company as part of its bankruptcy restructuring. More significantly for sports fans across the country, Amazon’s stake in the company means that games televised on Bally Sports channels will be available to local fans via Amazon Prime.

Nearly 40 teams across MLB, the NBA and the NHL have local television contracts with Bally Sports regional affiliates, but not all television providers have deals to carry Bally Sports networks. YouTubeTV users have long been unable to watch their local teams’ games without subscribing to Bally Sports’ streaming service.

Now, those fans should be able to see their teams play if they have an Amazon Prime subscription.

------------------------------------------

I, like many others, have a Bally Sports subscription at $20 per month on top of my Hulu + Live, Amazon, Apple+, and Netflix. I stream it on my laptop and share it to my TV. It'll be nice to just have to turn on Amazon Prime and watch.

I wouldn’t count on it available that soon-

It is not clear when Bally Sports will start streaming on Amazon, and the deal still needs to be approved by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas.”

Also it sounds like there will be a separate subscription cost to view the Bally Sports for Amazon Prime Video and Amazon Prime Members-

“According to a press release from Diamond Sports on Wednesday, Prime Video subscribers will be able to purchase “direct-to-consumer” streaming from all local channels operated by Diamond, which will make Amazon its “primary partner” for streaming access.

It is not clear how much it may cost to view Bally Sports content through Amazon Prime Video, a service that can be accessed through an Amazon Prime subscription or an $8.99 per month standalone Prime Video subscription.
Diamond Sports Group said details about pricing and availability for the new streaming services would be announced at a later date.“

    • We need a Sam Off Ball Backer to pair with Lloyd. Lloyd is a strong Interior Will especially in Pass Coverage- but that is also Trevin Wallace’s archetype. Need a Rozeboom style run stopper. Rodriguez and Allen fit that
    • There aren’t that many ways to screw Day 2 up.  That’d be them making an obvious reach, or selecting at one of the few positions that we are pretty solid at. Because as excited as we are for the growth and improvement this team is showing, it’s still not an overly talented or deep roster. Honestly, there aren’t really many positions I’d feel bad about. Feelings about Bryce aside (because we are not going to select a QB), it’s really RB (bad positional value) and that’s it. I guess OT too since we grabbed Freeling in Round 1.    While not as high on my wish list as other spots, you can justify WR or TE.     Interior offensive lineman who would likely take over an interior spot either this year (at center) or guard (next for cap casualty of Hunt or Lewis)? Fine by me.   Dlineman? Yes, that’s a highly rotational position and we have zero quality depth.    ILB? Yep, could stand for an upgrade over Wallace.    EDGE? Absolutely wouldn’t hate another option to spell Phillips, Scourton, and Princely.    FS?  Would love to add better coverage skill set to the backend of the defense. Moehrig and Ransom are great in run support but not as good deep. Adding a more traditional FS would allow us to mix and match/run some 3 safety sub packages and or a big nickel type look with a SS down near the line for better run support in possible pass downs.    CB? Could stand to get better at nickel. 
    • Sounds like Veesaar is entering the draft. He could always test the waters and pull out and return but without him our big men look like a serious liability. Better do something in the portal. If they don't do something about this portal madness my days as a college sports fan are probably numbered. This bullshit of having a nearly entirely new team every season is gonna get old fast.
