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.“

    • I wonder if they'd consider trading Rasheed Walker to a team that needs tackle help but missed out in the draft?
    • LOL. This is such a Panthers fan take.  Anyone who falls to us must suck because some other team didn't take them before.  We got lucky with Lemon, Thieneman, and Freeling all falling to us (honestly any of the three is a A+) but the WR and S positions are much deeper than the LT position in this draft.  We got the LT w/ the most upside at 19.  Mauigoa played RT in college and some think he is a guard in the nfl.  Spano played RT in college and some think he is a guard in the NFL due to short arms.  Blake Miller played RT in college and is not as good as Freeling.  Proctor is a true LT but his ability to handle quick edge's worries me (see Icky).  Freeling is a true LT and a gifted pass protector.  Many think he has a very high ceiling and will benefit from not having to start right away.  This is how you build a franchise.  
    • After watching Cam get killed for years behind a bad Oline and having to watch the 2021 and 2023 Olines I will never complain about this team putting resources into that spot.  We got a true LT who could really push Rasheed Walker for the day 1 job. Go back and watch Iceky's draft profile from 2022 and all the talk was Ickey would be an all-pro guard in a zone blocking scheme, but he could play LT in a gap power run scheme. That's why Ickey looked really good when Wilks took over and we just started running gap run plays and just mauled people up front but under Canales we've been more of a zone running team. Ickey can survive at LT with his pass blocking but his true strength will always be his ability to just move guys in the run game and that's a skill set that's better used at guard.  Take another OT later on day 3 to learn from Moton to take over RT in a couple of years and let Walker and Freeling battle it out for the day 1 LT job then next offseason trade one of Hunt of Lewis and let Ickey move inside to guard.
