Navin R. Johnson Posted October 3, 2019 Report Share Posted October 3, 2019 27 minutes ago, jayschool said: I had Sling TV then. I now live in Iowa, so the Royals are a "home team," which means I use HuluPlus to get all KC, STL, MIL, CHW, CHC and MIN games. Our local cable gets only Chicago teams. In Colorado, I just bought the entire MLB.TV season the first couple of years, then pared it down to Royals games. The single-team MLB.TV package is $89.99 per year, I believe. Before that, I just had to watch the Rockies on cable. Yuck. thanks, I might have to look into that. I'm also not a big fan of Boulder, Colorado. Can't imagine living there!

(Plus other non sports related channels) The only thing from a sports perspective that it really lacks is NFL Network and NBA TV. It also lacks MLB Network, I believe. YoutubeTV has that and I think the NFL and NBA channels. I tried them both last year and thought YoutubeTV was a superior product by kind of a lot. Maybe Hulu has caught up. thrasher31 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All streaming services I've used (YT, Sling, Hulu, MLB.tv, etc) are all at least 90 seconds behind. That might be a little extreme, but that's what it feels like... All put me a play or two behind, which can take away some of the drama. I'm not disciplined enough sometimes to put the phone away between commercials.

AuroranHusker Posted October 8, 2019 Report Share Posted October 8, 2019 (edited) Kinda cool to have a 3-part series on Nebrasketball on the Big Ten Network. The buzz for Hoiberg Hoops is palpable.

throwback Posted October 22, 2019 Report Share Posted October 22, 2019 It showed up in my DirecTV guide today - looks like it'll be 3 parts, each 1/2 hour long, airing back to back to back. Looks like they'll be re-airing the 3 parts occasionally all week, but it won't be all 3 parts consecutively on those re-airings, so Oct. 28 is the best bet to catch it all at once.

Also noticed that Nebraska vs Indiana will be re-aired as a "BTN Football in 60" just prior to the 3-part 'B1G Trip'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Don Posted October 25, 2019 Report Share Posted October 25, 2019 I just set up my DVR, The BTN caption says only "The B1G Trip" (but no mention it is the Huskers Italy-ian Trip in the description). There are three consecutive half hour programs; beginning at 7:00 Central. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimmykc Posted October 29, 2019 Report Share Posted October 29, 2019 (edited) Well done, BTN. I recommend all who post here watch it. Gives a really good insight into the personalities of all of these new players and some of the staff. I appreciated the fact that a few might have not wanted to appear on camera, but the "on-camera stars" were definitely Doc. ,Dachon, Jervay, and Dalano. The Mayor is impressive and Doc seems to make a perfect sidekick/foil for all. (Think Andy Devine, Smiley Burnett, Pat Buttram, Gabby Hayes, for all of the fans of old cowboy shows).

I didn't know his English was as good as it is, he's a native speaker, and 2). He says winters are colder in Nebraska than Iceland. That surprised me.

I remember him as Mr. Haney from Green Acres. Those interactions with Mr. Douglas were maybe the funniest parts of the series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimmykc Posted October 29, 2019 Report Share Posted October 29, 2019 Maybe it"s the volcanos. And I agree with mwm89 about Mr. Haney. Buttram also was Gene Autrey's sidekick. Autrey "the singing cowboy" was also an owner of the Angels and became one of the wealthiest men in Hollywood. mwm89 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimmykc Posted October 29, 2019 Report Share Posted October 29, 2019 Bonus points today for whoever can name Gene, Roy, and Hopalong's horses. And that reminds me of one of my father's attempts at humor in telling us that Tom Mix's horse was named "Cement". (Hopefully no one will spill their coffee on that one).

jimmykc Posted October 29, 2019 Report Share Posted October 29, 2019 Credit for trying. I knew Hoppy's horse would be hard. And I must assume Doc would have just called him "Sack". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
49r Posted October 29, 2019 Report Share Posted October 29, 2019 Difference is, the summer highs in Reykjavik are only about 20 degrees warmer than the winter highs, in Lincoln they're about 55 degrees warmer. Also Lincoln gets 56 days of rain per year, Reykjavik gets 142. mwm89 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
