Last night's game....

Over the years the reception of the main network channels, including the main channel the Bengals are on, has diminished so that I can only get them on a Dayton channel (which is not used during the pre-season).  

  My wife got me one of the NFL channels (not sure which one) for my birthday so I could watch all the games at least 24 hours later.   The channel was supposed to give me live coverage during the pre-season.   So I tuned into the channel and could get live coverage on every game except the Bengals.   Whatever

Shoot!!   I might as well be sod busting in Wyoming with you!!

I ended up going to a BW3s and watching the game on the porch outside (84 degrees and humid) because they had pretty much everything BUT the Bengals game on inside.     I was then accosted by a nice little waitress who (properly) suggested I might want to buy something.

I got me a Mountain Dew and chips/ salsa and was eaten alive by mosquitos.

I did actually enjoy the game though, and am more than happy to share the Bengals story - and my own.

Cheers!

Dude, 20 miles and you're using a roof antenna, really? Buy yourself a powered digital antenna you can set by the tv for 30 bucks at Walmart and pull in the free digital network channel in HD.
