I've been over the Direct TV thing several times. I'm not cutting down trees for BTN. U-Verse and Fios are not available here, either.

Have they shown the camp tours this Month? On my TWC Guide, all it's saying is on are past Games and BTN Live.

BTN live includes the camp visits. This years visits are weird. They talk about the camp visited and then fly off topic and BS about other programs, or maybe that's just because they visited OSU on the second day and really had nothing much to say until the Braxton story broke in the middle of their visit to Disneyland.

I just discovered I've now got the SEC Network. I still don't have BTN.

Fuck you, Armstrong.

Switch. AT&T is giving TVs, Playstations, etc. to new subscribers. Time Warner has a $100 gift card bonus for changing providers. WOW will negotiate better rates to get your business. Shop around. (And call back and play them off against each other--they'll usually fold and give you a better deal, like no install fee or lower rates.) Get paid to get the channels you want.

BTN Live also gave a full hour over to Revsine's new book, The Opening Kickoff; The Tumultuous Birth of College Football. Pat Forde (ex SI writer), Revisine and another writer and our old pal, Stanley Jackson gave commentary.

Something turned me off about Stanley during his playing days - probably that rushed pass into the end zone against Michigan - well that and the perception I got that he didn't support Germaine when Joe was playing, especially in the Rose Bowl - But I've been amazed by his performance on BTN: Smart, articulate, knows how to explain football to old track coaches like me, much better on camera presence than Douchemond Howard.

But I digress, along with the show being interesting and the book revealing a good bit of research effort, Stanley does the university proud. Thrown into a discussion among writers, he more than holds his own. Look for the show - it's well worth the time to watch it.

oh, and here's a URL for the book - sounds like a winner: https://www.google.com/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=dave+revsine+book&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&gws_rd=ssl

Just watching that right now... I had forgotten how much fun the Troy Smith led offense was to watch.

And also... Morgan :slappy: Trent!!!

Parts of that game are painful to re-watch. Should have been a blow out had the Bucks not spent three possessions looking like Keystone cops. Same with the year before when Ted Ginn had his worst day as a punt returner... and then there's last year. Bucks done owe us about three games where they hang 50+ on Michigan and hold them to 20 or less.

On the other hand it is fun to toy with 'em and let them think they can win before yanking the rug out from under.

I just saw $EC Network is three below BTN on my guide. I thought for shits and giggles I would see if I had it. I assumed no since I can't get BTN in Colorado without paying $9 more a month. Well, wouldn't you know. I have that shitty channel and Finebaum was on. FML and screw Comcast, ESPiN, and definitely screw this God forsaken state. Amen!

ALA the game where Troy hit's Gonzo with a huge play and then Pittman takes it in for the win.. Michigan fans all over the stadium had their jaws hit the floor on that one lol. And it all happened in the Big House!
