Figure I'll give this a try since the rest of you thread starters have been shitty luck

1030am PST Saturday (that's 1230 for you local folks in flyover country)

Epps time to shine

I didn't realize Harris is 2 years older than Rodgers.

I got ESPN back. Pretty good deal to stay with DTV for now.

Good, well played game for the most part.

Hey we won!

Shot selection was better. Hawkins shot it with a ton of confidence.

Nice W. Now let's turn this around.

Maybe the site should go down for each game.

You crashed the board, but at least we won the game.

3 wins over top 15 teams.

Might be the weirdest resume ever.

Go figger.
Mayer with 0 shots in the 1st half.
10 turnovers. Is that the lowest under Underwood ?
Shannon looked like he decided to take charge today.
We went to the basket and didn't jack 3's.
Shot free shots.
Now, do it again.

Did it early and often and still did not get a lot of foul calls.

You get 2 early on somebody and it can change the game. And we missed a bunch of layups.

Melendez should have dunked it on that last possession.

/s. I recall some sort of incident between Gard and another coach. The way Wisconsin played the last 45 seconds, I wondered if he took the points.

I've figured out the key. If I watch the game we lose, if I don't watch we win. Blame me

Amazing that Nichi’s cable magically comes back when they manage to win a game 😂.  Claims to have missed the Penn State, Mizzou, and NW games but watches this one. Sure lol

I don’t think there’s much to take from this game.  Shannon initiating offense in the paint was smart.  Hawkins still took a bunch of bad 3s I don’t care if he made 6/9 it’s fools gold. He’s a 28% career 3 shooter. Yet Underwood called him an elite shooter in the post game. He’s not.   Epps getting Clark’s minutes is an improvement.  Wisconsin isn’t very good especially without Wahl.  They won’t be ranked much longer once they get into the tougher schedule. 

If Shannon commits to playing in the paint Illinois will improve going forward.  But overall I don’t think it will matter much. Hawkins and Mayer are still too dumb. I got Nebraska winning the next game.

Satellite asshole. 

Saw the NU game on BTN.  Recorded it.
 
I got ESPN back, the Hallmark channels for my wife, and a  25 per month discount. Got ESPN1,2,U, fs, Btn. Should be able to record all the games.

Had DTV for a long time. They suck since ATT took over.

The last time I called and threatened to cancel, they said go ahead. This time they hooked me up me up with loyalty.

Still intend to test drive YouTube TV.

I quit cable over 30 years ago. A storm knocked out my service. A guy came out to fix it. They had closed our local office, so I paid him. They charged me an in home collection fee. I switched to something called Primestar. When they went oob, I went to Dishnet.  Then DTV had some promo to switch. For years, they gave me good discounts to stay.

It was because I renewed with DTV and got ESPN back.

YouTubeTV is a no brainer for $65 a month. DVR, awesome user interface, has all the stuff I want plus a ton more. And no dish on the house.

Shot selection. Take makeable shots. Play inside out, and drive and kick.

We will be alright.

I frequently work outside of the area and end up at relatives' houses. One of them dumped cable years ago because the service had only Chicago channels and half of them didn't come in. I still miss Chicago WGN, but other than that, it was worth dumping. DISH was the replacement. Once they stopped promoting the adult channels every 10 minutes, it was a good deal. My only regret is they scrapped the deal where you could apply to get network channels from other cities because your area was "underserved." Apparently the whole WICD/Channel 15/WICS/Channel 20/Channel 17 thing meant we needed more NBC channels. I think I had one from LA and one from New York, plus a random FOX channel from Atlanta. But no more.

I do like Comcast Xfinity and don't plan to dump it.

If you did though, what percentage would it be?
