The two have nothing to do with each other. I hope he fully recovers and spends as much time as he wants with his daughters.

I still think he sucks as a sports reporter and I can't stand him on ESPN.

Just letting you know. Not saying you can't hate his sports reporting. He annoys the poo out of me as well. Just might not be seeing him as much is all.

I'm thinking about going HD Antenna and Roku Box really really soon.

I did it for two years in DC. I didn't really miss cable. I did get about 3x as many over the air stations up there though. Many international news stations and I pulled the local channels from DC and Baltimore, so they all had different stuff on at different times giving me plenty of stuff to watch.

ESPN3 and the bootleg streaming sites worked well enough if you don't care about HD quality.

Now I have DirecTv and wish I just had the antenna again.

With the kid I have sooo much less time for BS TV that I usually just watch it once or twice a week to play "catch-up" on the 4-8 shows I actually care about.

Just slightly worried about HD quality with the Antenna and setting it up.

HD quality OTA is actually better because nothing is compressed. The problem is getting the signal depending where you live.

A great site to put your address in to get an idea what is available OTA.

This may actually be the model going forward that works. Once everyone has a fat broadband pipe going to their house. Consumers may actually be able to choose whatever they like ala carte.

      Bust alert - Eight NFL players running out of time to prove themselves entering 2026 season

      By The Third Reich · Posted

      Bryce has improved each season, fwiw, statistically.  His slope is rising.  (Not to say I am high on him--I am not, but I have not given up on him--nor have I given up on XL, but damn he pisses me off)  CJ's slope is descending.   I was never a Penix fan.  Never, I say!

      Sorsby to the supplemental draft

      By The Third Reich · Posted

      That is definitely the down side of all this--on paper, I would offer up a second rounder for him if he passed my interviews.  He has already gone through (seriously?) a treatment program for gambling addiction.  I just see him as a first round talent that we could get with a second rounder.  If I liked Bryce and felt good about paying him $50m per, I would not touch Sorsby.  If Bryce regresses or stays the same--he is going to expect to be paid.  Sorsby, in my view, has a better long-term future as an NFL QB.  He is big, mobile, has good arm strength, and makes wise decisions (on the field) with the football.  He is a great dual threat, RPO QB.   I think he is a perfect solution for the backup qb position and insurance for Bryce should he get injured or suck.  Pickett?  King?  yikes.

      Sorsby to the supplemental draft

      By The Third Reich · Posted

      Hard to say--they are very unpredictable--this article came out last night---after our comments:  (ESPN)   How has the NFL approached NCAA players with gambling violations in the past? David Purdum, sports betting reporter: Quarterback Hunter Dekkers and wide receiver Kayshon Boutte were found to have committed gambling violations while playing college football, and both were allowed to pursue NFL careers. Dekkers was the projected starting quarterback at Iowa State but was ruled ineligible ahead of the 2023 season after an investigation found he had bet on at least one game involving the Cyclones (among other wagers that violated NCAA bylaws). The bet was just $15 on Iowa State to beat Oklahoma State in a 2021 game in which he did not play, but it led to the end of his Division I career. He played one season at Iowa Western Community College in 2024 before signing with the Saints as an undrafted free agent, and he spent last season on the practice squad. Boutte was arrested in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, in January 2024 on charges of underage betting while at LSU. The arrest came roughly eight months after he had been drafted in Round 6 by the Patriots, and the charges were ultimately dropped. According to police, Boutte placed more than 8,900 wagers from April 2022 to May 2023, including betting on at least 17 college football games -- at least six of which involved LSU during that span. The NFL did not discipline Boutte.
