Eliminating Cable / Sat TV
QUOTE (Middle Buffalo @ Feb 12, 2014 -> 03:03 AM) Does the person in Chicago have to be watching the game, or does it work as long as that tv isn't on another program. I've been thinking about getting a sling box for my parents' house in Chicago so I can watch Bears and Sox games in AZ. They have a tv in the basement that they never use (it is hooked up to cable). I'm not sure what you're asking exactly but you would set the box up in your parents basement. Then in AZ you get access to all their channels. That tv will have to be on whatever you in AZ are watching but you can actually change the channel from AZ and the tv will also change to it.

Eliminating Cable / Sat TV
I use my parents Comcast login to watch stuff like the Olympics and HBO go. Seems to work anywhere. But yeah if you have access to someone else's cable login it'll help

Official Squared Circle Thread
That main event was such crap. I really hope it's done for good. Should have just put the Shield and Wyatt feud there with one of their matches. They are more than over enough to carry a ME. Not that WWE will trust it's awesome young talent, especially with huge negotiations coming up. The late 90s was so good because the mid card was every bit as good as the MEers. You have that now since the young talent has not been this good in years. Hopefully WWE let's them shine. The Raw matches last night were so great outside of Cena/Orton and the Del Rio squash/Bautista push. The feud build with the Wyatts and Shield was top notch stuff.

NBC Gold Zone is awesome. Olympic take on NFL Red Zone with the same host.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Feb 11, 2014 -> 02:27 PM) I agree that Illini fans' obsession with Weber at KSU is creepy, but to be fair, this board was similar with rooting against Ozzie in Miami. Fact is, Weber was one shot away from a championship, yet within 3 seasons he started the program's worst stretch in 30+ years. He is the reason why Illinois has missed 4 tournaments in 7 years. Ozzie is a good comparison. Personally I wouldn't trade eithers tenure here though since they each brought us the best season in each programs history (or 90 years). Both held on too long and it's best they are gone now. I'll root for Weber because he's a nice guy and since he's no longer affecting my team that is good enough for me.. Probably not for Ozzie since he's an asshole.

QUOTE (Boogua @ Feb 11, 2014 -> 02:15 PM) Not sure why you think Weber would do better with a worse lineup than we currently have. His offense largely relies on having multiple guards that can dribble, pass, and shoot. He recruited nobody that could do that, unless maybe you think Orris would have done better at Illinois than he did at KS. You might think the future isn't bright, but this looks like a tournament team for the foreseeable future. That's at least a start. With the way you worded it I thought you meant with what our roster is currently and I said yes because I think anyone would have handled the rotations better than Groce has this year. I think Weber would have us out of the cellar. Not saying that means anything other than Groce has done a poor job this year IMO. I am glad Weber isn't our coach.

QUOTE (Boogua @ Feb 11, 2014 -> 01:47 PM) Do you think Weber would have done as well with illinois as Groce did last year? Do you think Weber would have done better at Illinois with the way the roster was constructed for this year? Do you think Weber's Illini would have had a brighter future than what it looks like now? Nobody is butthurt. I think most people dislike Bruce Weber because he took a team that was in the top 5 in the B1G most years and ran them into the ground. Not to mention he tried to blame other people for his failure. 1. No 2. Yes 3. no but our future isnt very bright as it stands Look at any Illinois message. They are all obsessed with Bruce Weber. I agree they shouldn't be which makes it funnier.

QUOTE (gatnom @ Feb 11, 2014 -> 04:46 AM) Getting fired by Illinois might have been the best thing that's ever happened to Bruce Weber. Weber wins KSUS first big 12 title in 30 years and now he's having a great year with a roster that looked like a complete catastrophe coming into the year. He's been an amazing hire for KSU so far and Illini fans sure are butt hurt over it especially with Illinois being awful. I think a lot of the success is due to getting back in bed with Soxtalks other favorite coach Chris Lowery.

QUOTE (Willard Decker @ Feb 10, 2014 -> 01:13 AM) Smart is wrong for putting his hands on a fan. What was said to provoke him is important only in determining how the fan in question should be disciplined. We've only the fan's word that he didn't use a racial slur. Neither Marcus Smart or Travis Ford was willing disclose what they thought he said. I don't know if their reluctance is due to their wanting to keep the incident relatively contained or if it's because they don't feel comfortable discussing such a sensitive issue in public. I will be disappointed if Texas Tech does not impose their own sanctions on the fan in question: I won't use his name because he doesn't deserve the attention and believe it's highly inappropriate for him to voluntarily abstain from attending remaining Texas Tech men's basketball games. The decision is not his to make. --Captain Decker There is video of the incident released about an hour ago from the camera Smart ran into on the play. He does get called a piece of crap. And it is his decision to make on whether he wants to be a paying customer to an entertainment event. It's not like he has a contract where he's obligated to go. If someone bans him on top of that fine but it's his decision whether to go or not.

QUOTE (Palehosefan @ Feb 10, 2014 -> 01:09 AM) When you attend your first sporting event you are going to be horrified. Duke fans chanted "wheres your daddy?" to Steve Kerr after Kerr's dad passed away. Telling a 20 year old he's a piece of crap is stupid, but Orr apologized to him right after he said it. He's an illini fan give him a break. One use of the word "suck" in the Krush and they will forever banish you from Champaign.
