I've enjoyed FUBO the last couple of years
That's my plan for football (we did yttv in the past).
Fubo has Bally. Same cost as yttv.
I will give it a 1 week trial. If we don't like it, we will just go to YTTV for the football season.
I'm like you. We aren't paying for any service right now.
The family is watching a ton of Netflix. We have Max and Paramount (probably dropping both of these in season). We get Disney, Hulu, and espn+ through our cell phone plan.
With all of the free stuff in roku and history, we really don't need anything more.

I have two dumb TVs. Bought a Roku box for each and we share a YouTube connection with someone (don't tell anybody) and have no trouble getting football or anything else. Our former cable/internet company dropped cable for everyone. We now pay as much for internet only as we paid for cable and internet combined before they dumped cable. No other internet available where we live so we're stuck.

Same here. We don't have enough time to watch everything we have. I am wanting to get into Jack Ryan Final Season, Joe Pickett (Amazon) and a couple of others. Yeah, I set up a small antenna on the roof (you can barely see it) and I get all the local channels, too. Wish I had done this years ago.

Ouch. Out of curiosity, where do you live? My wife and I looked around at Weiss Lake, but ultimately settled on Ellijay. We'll build and go up there next year.

I go early season with my Tivo for HD open air and record the games on a hard drive. For none open air (ESPN/SEC network) I try TV247.US amd USTV247.us... need a vpn - [good think you asked because USTv seems to be down.
Around December, I do a trial of HULU or Sling and extend a month, then drop it.

Hulu live with the bundle. We moved from cable when it was over $200 because of boxes that kept breaking, extra HD channels, etc. Use a Roku to access everything.

YYTV has the multiscreen feature going this year where you can watch multiple games at once.
Multi screen all on one screen? Or the ability to run multiple TVs off one device?

I need to check to see if there's a YTTV app for Samsung.
There is. I had YTTV last year and I have a Samsung SmartTV…worked really well. You can also use the ESPN+ 4k broadcast using YTTV as your cable provider if you have the ESPN+/Disney+ bundle.

Pretty sure YouTube was saying they were testing this and it would be ready shortly, if it is not already. Also enhanced picture and added channels, I think.

That would save me some money, I’m moving my Saturday operation from the deck to a party barn I’m building but I’m not sure if it’ll be ready this season.still needs concrete and walls. Was planning to run a multi Tv setup out there now that we finally got fiber out here in the boondocks.

I went to a party thrown by a vice-President of Chick-Fil-A a few years ago. He had a party barn with a projection TV in it. We watched the Georgia/Clemson game. Chubb's freshman year, I think.

I was able to do it yesterday. I haven't figured out how to tinker with the channels but there's one feed that's news and it's like FNC/CNN/MSNBC/NBC all at once and one sports one with ESPN/FS1/ESPN2/Golf.
They did it for the NCAAT too and you could watch all 4 channels at once. Pretty distracting tbh.

I’m on a shoestring budget with the party barn project.
Sad thing is I pour concrete for a living. Just gotta wait til we get slow so I can get my guys down here to pour the slab. I doubt mine will ever be as nice as the Chick-fil-A VPs party barn tho. I’m just glad I got the poles and roof up.

Yeah, I would think. I have to concentrate on one game at a time. If there is more than one I just flip back and forth. Younger people can multi task better.

It was nice, but not overly fancy. It had a kitchen area in it and the main area was pretty much open, so it wasn't real fancy. I was impressed with the projection TV, though. I didn't think you could get as clear a picture as he did. I was happy he was a Georgia fan, so it didn't take a lot of urging to get him to turn the game on.

When do we get pics of the party barn you are building?
Posted on 7/21/23 at 9:05 pm to deeprig9
If I knew how to post pics I would’ve won the rib off for the last 10 years

If you want to learn, you can learn. You need an image hosting service such as Imgur. If you can get that far, I can walk you through the rest.

I in fact did not figure it out.
I copied the link from Imgur and pasted it in the img link bar.
