No need to watch ESPN when every sport has a dedicated channel. Golf, tennis, NFL, NBA, racing, MLB...

I flip back and forth from Gameday and SEC Nation (or whatever that pre-game show is called with Tebow and McElroy)

I usually keep it on in the background while I putter around my apartment.

Either that or ESPN.

Not me, I got rid of cable earlier this year. I'm loving it. I spend a lot more of my time actually doing things these days.


Did you get a roku, chrome cast or some other option?

I'm about to pull the trigger on this myself.

I plan on adding basic cable to the office building I own and using that password for watch espn. I just can't run a HD antennae so I'm a bit perplexed about what to do about the local channels.

SEC network is especially awesome during baseball season. I think I got to watch more games this season than all others combined. Good riddance to GeauxZone.

I don't think so. I've just started looking into is though.

There's a great thread on the Tech Board for reference. Most of that is above my head at this point but I keep going back to it to learn more about how to get this done.

I still have no idea what is the correct device to get as in roku, the amazon one or whatever. They all seem to differ just slightly.

SEC Nation has replaced Gameday for me. I usually find myself watching that most Saturdays.

I wish they would add some better content. SEC Now is good, but there also needs to be a road trip type of show focusing on tailgating and school traditions. A game of the week breakdown show would be great as well.

I watch it on gameday and maybe an hour or two the rest of the week. I wish they would slot in more classic games and less Finebaum.

When I think about it I rarely watch ESPN or SECN for anything but live sports or when news is breaking. I'll usually watch a little bit of Gameday.

I think 2010 saga for us just soured me on sports media, never really picked it back up after that.

I hope they will use the empty channels during basketball and baseball seasons.

If I wasn't a student and didn't have to pay $30 a month for it, I'd watch it all the time

I stream games through my parents' Uverse login

No, because I didn't really get rid of cable, a tree limb did it for me. So I lost internet at home too.

So for now I just use an antenna, I'm still looking for options for internet. I want a sole source internet provider for phone and home, but I don't like the data/rates that are available. I'll probably go ahead and reattach the internet and just not get cable TV. I never want to pay for TV again, it's a waste - 95% of it is unwatchable.
