I requested it so I don't have to watch the cheesehead slackers play.  ?

So Jess doesn't go on the final 2 Gophers B1G road trips to cover the team,( and I don't think he was at Michigan either ) but he is in Milwaukee to cover the BADgers Holiday Tourney. Any bets if he will be at Michigan St in January or in Warroad for HDM?  My money is on Warroad....  The Rink Live's coverage of the Gophers is no different the the Star Tribune this year. I love to make fun of Jess and his "questions" to Bob, but at some point he needs to start showing up to road games.

IF Amazon does take over Bally's (Diamond), I'm wondering if they will put the Regionals strictly on their streaming service.  I'm not opposed to that, IF all teams stick with them and are available. I just don't want the Twins on one format, the Wild on another, etc. The downside for me is that I'm a flipper, and like to flip between games going on at the same time. Streaming makes that more difficult.

The next question for me, is if Prime is required.  We game up Prime when it moved to $140 annually, and Jack Ryan ended.  Outside of the Grand Tour (ending) and Jack Ryan (ended), nothing they have put out is very interesting.  And the free 2 day shipping has become less and less beneficial/worthwhile for us.

So if I have to buy Prime at $140 annually, and then spend another probably $20/month...?  Again, probably not worth it for me.  If it is included with Prime at $140, I would probably just get prime again and deal with it.  But all these extra fees and everything are a hard pass.

If you liked Jack Ryan you may enjoy Reacher. It has been exceptionally well done so far through 2 seasons. I know this isn't the TV thread but had to plug it.

Another look at the Diamond Sports/Ballys situation and how Prime may be a factor in it. All signs point to the Twins being on Diamond Sports/Ballys in 2024 and then things could change after that. It is a complicated issue, especially when it comes to the streaming part.

One of the key paragraphs:

With the Amazon-Diamond plan, the Bally name would go away entirely, so the package would be called something new. And the price would almost certainly increase. But the equivalent of the Bally Sports Plus offering would exist, and be marketed by one of the most powerful streaming services out there: Prime.

It wouldn’t be a big deal if the streams were actually good.  The buffering/lag is terrible on most streams.  The Thursday night NFL games on Prime are brutal.

Here is the deal... ALL of the streaming could EASILY have less lag. We stream the GPL Podcast on YouTube and our lag is 15-20 seconds. If individuals can stream with such little lag, there is NO REASON that billion dollar companies could not do the same.

The ruling, which also applied to new one-year deals for the Cleveland Guardians and Texas Rangers, means fans in Minnesota with satellite or cable subscriptions that include BSN will be able to watch Twins games in exactly the same manner they have for decades. But the one-year contract also specifically states that neither BSN nor any other distribution partner can stream games over the internet for a separate fee.

No, Reggie is taking over that segment.  He was more front and center this year so I think the succession was in place.

In my humble opinion Pat Micheletti would be a fantastic option.
