People still have physical DVR's?

How do you record stuff?

YouTube TV does it all in the cloud. I have not had a physical DVR in 5 years.

Old guy me 🤣 

I still like record shows, and especially Gopher games. I have about 75 Gopher Hockey games currently in my DVR. It is just easier for me to fast forward and look for particular game or plays that way. I also copy all the goals and unique plays from the games to DVD's (and VHS years before that)  So if I want to go back and look at a goal from a game in 2012 I can. Unfortunately, now that the games are not on Ballys, I don't get to record as much as I used to. (Time for me to get back to my Bingo game at the nursing home) 🤣 

 

I'm 50% factual and 50% sarcastic. When you get to know me, you will know which is which.

For the phone option you could look at a google voice number.  That's free and should be easy to set up how you want it.  

 

If you get good 5g service, I've heard good things about either t mobile or verizion's internet services, but it really does depend how good of a 5g signal you get at home.

 

But the TV question is always going to be a quandary.  There really isn't  a good answer unfortunately.

I have a problem I’m trying to figure out and hoping someone can help. The state highschool hockey tournament is always on “my 45” CW out of the cities. I can’t find that channel but I do get a CW twin cities (23). Would that be the same channel? Or what channel up there in the cities covers the tournament if there’s a different one. Thank you! I know I have months but I’m not wanting to drop my cable unless I can watch the tournament.

Not the same channel.  I'm assuming this is through an antenna?  This would be on channel 5.2.  see the link if you're not in range of the twin cities

Ok our local cable provider picked up my 45 cw. I’m trying to find it on a tv box and what channel people in the cities watch it on assuming it’s the same. I can’t find my45 so wondering if there’s a different channel. Sorry I’m new at all this.

@camo-coat-guy I live out of the metro tv market and I use a Roku to watch the State Tourneys including the hockey tourney. I think the Roku's start at around $30.

@camo-coat-guy The call sign is KSTC.  See if you can see that in your cable guide.

I just remember always seeing my45 in the corner of the screen. Maybe not a CW. The cable company just picks it up for the highschool league tournament otherwise it’s a blank local access program channel. So I only get to see this channel during the tournament normally.

@frozen4champs I might have to go that route KSTC isn’t a local cities channel that anyone can find that has this tv box. Thanks!

I don’t get 45 on YouTube TV, but I just use the Fox9 app on the Apple TV and stream the hockey tournament that way.

Apparently Direct TV and Disney are in a battle because of greed, just before NFL season, go figure. FTR, doesn't affect me, I have my ways to watch sportsball. 😉 

When you tell somebody somethin', it depends on what part of the United States you're standin' in... as to just how dumb you are.

It's Rachel Blount's last day at the Star Tribune -- she essentially is disappointed with the direction of the newspaper's 'big, hard changes' as they rebrand themselves and move staff around.

It was interesting to see them fire their sports editor earlier this year, but then re-hire him to manage their high school sports team. Ryan Kostecka is the current sports editor after previously writing for the Utah Jazz.

Aloha!

DirecTV and Disney have agreed to terms on a new deal.
