If you've been paying attention, you probably know that I don't have a TV(well, actually there is a TV in my crawl space but it's not mine and more importantly it's not where I can watch it. And even if it was where I could watch it, I don't have cable. Which you really have to have in the mountains if you want to watch TV. Unless of course you have satellite TV. Which I don't. But enough of this already . . .)
The point is, I don't have a TV.
And tonight was the final game of the Final Four.
With some TV events, this would necessitate a trip to my parents' place.
But not with the Final Four. Because the NCAA made all of the games available live online. Really good quality online.
I watched Davidson beat Wisconsin online and tonight I was able to watch Memphis lose to Kansas online. While sitting on my bed. Without having to go out in the cold.
This is pretty cool. I get to eat my cake and have it too.
No TV in the house the majority of the time which is a good thing.
But online TV for special occasions which is also a good thing.
What kind of connection do you have? I'm looking into getting somehting faster for my parents.
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing that they had good online sports coverage.
I have Comcast cable internet access with a wireless router. They have a package if you do cable TV and cable internet but we just do cable internet.
ReplyDeleteI would recommend either cable or DSL. Around here, you can get good DSL access through the phone company.
