Yeah, if ESPN, I could only watch it if I order TSN (our oldest sports network, bought by ESPN/Disney around 2002 or so, IIRC), which I'm not doing at $37.00 a month (it used to be FREE until 2020 or so).

But we get all the major American networks as basic cable here, so I'll be able to watch it on TV indeed

I was debating what I was going to be doing Sunday at 1:00, and since my choices are watching a Pittsburgh home game or a Cleveland home game, the correct answer is 'not watch football.' Looking forward to the Ravens in Dallas, though. Gonna be a long time until Monday night.

Lucky you, I get an early choice of Chicago/Indy or GB/Tenn. I have no interest in any of those teams. I'll watch Dallas hopefully beat Baltimore at 4....

Day drinking is always an option.  Makes the time go by faster.  Of course time will go by much slower the next day when you fell like crud.

Yeah, I am not paying for espn, never. 37 bucks a month for one sucky channel? WTF???

I am blessed I have a great antenna where I can get all the American big networks.... ABC, CBS, NBC, Fox all for free.

Stuck watching the Titans game makes me wonder what Callahan would give us for Jake Browning. Willing to bet Tyler Boyd would help fund the travel.

If you're one of those that think only poor pass protection is the cause of sacks, feel free to watch this turd and get educated

So far the Stealers won catching break after break. Looks like the Stains will lose. Rats coming up.

And how exactly did anyone think the Stealers schedule is second toughest? Looking at the team list it is easier than ours...

Our Smart TV is 55 inches and we've had it since we moved in, it's MORE than big enough, but it's just old enough that it is severely limited in what it can do as a Smart TV, thus pirating or hooking up to Auxilliary equipment (such as HDMI from Laptop) is a complete PITA and almost not worth the hassle: I will ONLY do streams for Bengals games that aren't on TV (PS or last year's MNF games, as they were on ESPN and not ABC, like this year).

But I hear you and agree with you

I said 5 years ago at Netflix's height, that streaming is ruining television and games and I am vehemently against NOT owning the media you wish to consume (due to the Dreamcast's demise, which was due  {in part} to piracy) and I don't want to rely on clouds or a database to watch something, when I can just pop in physical media and watch it myself. Many are now seeing my take from 6 years ago and agreeing with it (while the majority don't care either way, lol), so at least I'm getting some vindication.

I'll shut up now.
