While on the set of The Dirty Dozen, Browns owner Art Modell gave Brown an ultimatum: football or the movies. We all know what the decision was. Modell said in later years it was the worst thing he ever did. I know Rochester was defined as Browns "territory" before the NFL went with a national TV partner, CBS. There's still a lot of Browns fans in Rochester.

Back in the 80s, I'd roam the bus lot and there was always some drunk from the night before who missed the ride and the group leader would be stuck with a ticket or two or three. They would gladly hand them over to me for $5...they figured what the heck, they were already paid for...it was the knuckleheads' who overslept problem.

Josh Allen, Von Miller Golf Channel interview
Ned Flanders replied to JÂy RÛßeÒ's topic in The Stadium Wall
Ummm...I think being able to play amateur golf is a little different than playing NFL football, no? -
Peacock is NBC and Paramount is CBS, unless they've bought a drug store I haven't heard about.

What was your favorite era of being a Sports fan?
Ned Flanders replied to BillsPride12's topic in Off the Wall
1970s...started the decade as a Raiders/Vikings fan and went to the regular season opener at Rich and was immediately hooked. Became a Sabres fan when Bobby Orr left the Bruins. Been an Oriole fan since day one and while they won the Series in 1970, they were always in contention throughout the decade. -
I have a feeling this Peacock game will be the one hosted by the irrelevant AFC South champion, the former Houston Texans Invitational.

George seems much more annoying to me now then when the show originally aired...the first several seasons hold up ok but the last few are dreadful, it turned into Three's Company, where the comedy was centered around a "misunderstanding." Basically, if I'm going through the channels, I now fly bye Seinfeld...there's only a few episodes I need to see again.

And Fish DC Tom Olivadotti still wakes up in the middle of the night cursing Thurman Thomas.
-
Ah yes, remember this one well...as here in the DC area, I had to rely on a choppy WHAM broadcast and the NBC Ten-Minute-Ticker. Nerve wracking.

Could have swept the Braves...big series this week with Tampa. Need to take two of three.
-
Get rid of team message boards.

Yeah, I miss punching up channel 4 and getting NBC and 206 to get ESPN, etc. I miss MLB and NHL networks, along with MASN. But it had to be done...the cost of DTV at $122/month vs. YTTV at $73/month was just too big a gap...and after several calls, DTV was unwilling to close that gap.

Lombardi. There’s a magic in the name..

Also a treasure trove of NFL Films music on Spotify: -
If you're out of market, get ESPN+ to get all Sabres games. You even get the Buffalo feed.
-
Welcome to the club. I'd like YTTV a lot better if they brought back MLB Network and added NHL Network though. I'd even pay extra if they lumped them in with their sports package. My gutter guy is coming this week and I asked if he'd take down the dish while he was on the roof...he was more than happy to accommodate.

Casey's in Brockport had 50 wings for $5.00 on Monday nights, circa 1984. Also had $5.00 pitchers of Genny on Monday nights. We knew the cook and he told us when we ordered, tell the waiter we wanted "sliced celery." He knew that was us, and he'd pile on another 15-20 wings atop the 50.

The only one I can recall was the 2011 home opener vs. the Raiders...was in the air coming back from west coast and didn't learn all the craziness that transpired in the final minutes until after the game ended. A 3-0 start in 2011 ends in a 6-10 disaster. https://www.pro-football-reference.com/boxscores/201109180buf.htm

Yeah, that's going to be weird...they're not drawing flies now...before the end of the season, they may let the wharf rats in.

A's, hard to believe, have been in Oakland longer than they were in Philadelphia as a founding AL member in 1901.
-
@Mike in Horseheadsis there any room left on our bandwagon? I heard the owner will keep the name as is.
-
Haven't seen this addressed specifically, but I would think that you would need YTTV to access their DVR.
-
Even with your annual "August Discounts?"
-
This article, and the statistics it contains, is very telling and focuses on a serious broadcast delay that may affect Sunday Ticket on YTTV. https://awfulannouncing.com/nfl/youtube-tv-live-delay-sunday-ticket-latency-problems.html
-
Well, this Oestlien guy can expect a call from @nucciin August looking for a discount...

I write and eat left handed but throw and do a lot of things right handed...I guess you can say I'm amphibious.
