Some great down to the wire games so far and some great matchups ahead. Highly unlikely but potential remains for an all Big 10 Final 4.
He is a 14 year old 8th grader. His perfect bracket is the Women's division.
Over in the women's final four, Marge and I will admit to a bit of satisfaction seeing UConn finally go down in flames to South Carolina 62-48. UConn was just plain getting boring, you know? And it wasn't even close; they just plain got dismantled by SC. Wild that they're having the final game today, on Easter.
My wife Marge is far more of a basketball and football fan than I am, and we've really gotten frustrated with how locked down and scattered the games are. It's really hard to find credible info on what is showing where, and we're sick of chasing games all over the place to figure out how to watch the games she wants to see. Out of all the streaming services we have, none have the men's final four, and they're not on broadcast (doubly annoying since the final four is happening right downtown less than nine miles from our living room).
However, I noticed last night that Sling now offers one-day, three-day, and seven-day streaming passes fairly cheap; I signed up for a three day pass for ten bucks so she could see the games.
I'm hoping this sort of thing spreads around; there are many times I wouldn't mind paying a few bucks to see a particular game, but I'm not interested in a long-term subscription or any of the other re-runs and "dudes yelling about sportsball" slop on a particular service.
The same thing goes for the NFL; it seems like every last package out there randomly excludes a lot of games, and you can't really predict which ones will be excluded, other than they'll probably be ones she wants to see. There's always an asterisk.
Also, MLB. We pay for a single team package, so can watch all the regular season Cubs games.
But any game that is in Atlanta or Cincinnati, they are blacked out on MLB-TV. They are considered "local" live events.
