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.

Are they just going to play out the string for the next four years in Oakland before they move? Seems depressing.
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.

You can’t kill the A’s.
A's, hard to believe, have been in Oakland longer than they were in Philadelphia as a founding AL member in 1901.

Anyone know if you get just the NFL Sunday Ticket on YouTube, without YouTube TV, can you only watch the games in real time, or are you able to stream the game later, on their cloud-based DVR?
Haven't seen this addressed specifically, but I would think that you would need YTTV to access their DVR.

This article, and the statistics it contains, is very telling and focuses on a serious broadcast delay that may affect Sunday Ticket on YTTV.

DirecTV reportedly had about two million Sunday Ticket subscribers. However, the company gave many subscriptions away for free to induce satellite signups. Oestlien said YouTube would not do so for YouTube TV.
That’s from YouTube’s VP of product management.
Well, this Oestlien guy can expect a call from @nucciin August looking for a discount...

It only works if you subscribe to a cable or satellite system that carries MASN…they don’t make it available directly to the consumer, ala YES and NESN.

Someone needs to explain to me the purpose of blackouts in the 21st first century. They can’t seriously think they incentivize people to separately buy local broadcasting network access? It seems pointless.This is MLB's misguided way of protecting the cable and satellite companies who carry the RSN. In the DC area, MASN, still stuck in the 20th century, is not available on any streamer. NBC Sports Washington is on YouTubeTV, so there's an avenue there, but MASN is most likely looking for an astronomical sum, which, to their credit, YTTV won't pay.
I switched to YTTV shortly after the NFL season ended, and a few weeks after, they dropped MLB Network. I'm none too happy with YTTV now, but it's the best of the crappy streamers out there. The streamers, several years ago, were a viable alternative to cord cutting, but now they're just another provider, dropping channels and raising prices just like the cable behemoths.

Direct TV gave it to me for free (bribe to stay) so I have it this year. i get to see a lot of Orioles games but like others have noted i'm blacked out when they play the yanks so I'm still stuck with Michael Kay
Hopefully, you didn't see yesterday's O's game...

One of the things I found interesting about this was they credited Buffalo Wild Wings as being the original Sports Bar in America. I have never heard that before, anybody know if there is truth to that claim or if it was more fabricated for the show?

You wonder how Pete Maravich would have fared with a three point line and better health. He could have been the best there ever was.

The first down clock stoppage was always, to me at least, part of the beauty of the college game...however, now with four hour plus games, I think it's time it goes away. I like the compromise of the clock stoppage during the final two minutes of each half.

I bet YouTube TV even lets you get a team package for Sunday Ticket, where you can view just one team and save even more money (I am not sure--need to reed the FAQ). How times have changed.
Hoping this is the case, where I can just get Bills and Red Zone.

it's already out on how it will be offered. You won't need youtube TV to get it
First I'm seeing that it will be available with or without Red Zone.

Is the delay actually You Tube or just due to internet streaming lag within each users one home?
Well, I've got Fios, 1GB down, 1GB up...so I don't think it's on my end. Could be wrong, which is often the case, though.

OK, I know there isn't much love for this band, but for those of us who grew up in the 60s, it was a fun group. Micky Dolenz currently touring and playing from the Headquarters album, which the band played their own instruments and helped with much of the lyrics. Here's my favorite from that album:

In the spirit of the NCAAs, first four in:
- MASH (the Frank Burns years)
- Barney Miller (even with cast changes, Fish, Nick, show kept its edge)
- Taxi (could do without Latka, Jim saved the show)
- Odd Couple (perfectly cast, even the Pidgeon Sisters)
Last four out:
- Cheers (the Coach years)
- Mary Tyler Moore Show (again, a great cast)
- Honeymooners (the 1955-56 run, even while short, set the standard)
- Happy Days (until Fonzie moved in the apartment above the garage)
Honorable mention:
- Just about anything Norman Lear touched, All in the Family, Good Times, Maude, The Jeffersons
End of an era.... I cancelled DirecTV!

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.
