Why streaming sucks for sports, reason #1,659:

To watch the Packers-Bears playoff game:

  1. Switch input to AppleTV
  2. AppleTV asleep, wake up, select viewer (me)
  3. Switch to Prime Video app
  4. Prime Video launches with useless graphic
  5. Select viewer (me)
  6. Select game
  7. Select how I want to watch game (Live)

If there was any sense in this world, and the game was on a normal television channel:

  1. Select channel

“Texas and Oklahoma think they’re ready for the hell that awaits them in the college football heaven known as the Southeastern Conference.

“They are not.”

Everything in college conference expansion is stupid as the ATLANTIC COAST conference adds teams from California and Texas. /sigh

Purely from an alliteration aesthetic viewpoint, the Michigan and Pittsburgh @USFL teams should swap nicknames. Michigan Maulers and Pittsburgh Panthers both sing.

Top 3 Super Bowl commercials this year:

  1. Workday’s “Rock Star”
  2. Ben Affleck’s Dunkin w/cameo by J-Lo
  3. Bradley Cooper’s mom from the top rope for T-Mobile

Honorable mention to Miles & Keleigh’s Bud Light commerical. Cute & sweet.

Workday may have taken the crown with “Rock Star.” Ozzy is hilarious:

“I’ve done my share of bad things. I’ve done your share of bad things, too.”

Cue everyone talking about how amazing Rihanna’s halftime show was as if she designed, engineered, and built the entire floating stage herself, while simultaneously running the cameras as she sang while strapped to a pole.

Okay, the Ben Affleck Dunkin commercial was hilarious.

I really should’ve started a pool on how many times tonight I’m going to say, “Can we just play effing football?”

Look, Tony Romo may genuinely be a nice guy. I don’t know, never met him.

But he sucks as a color commentator. He does not know how to SHUT. UP.

Dude, you’ve been doing this for like a minute. Take a breath, be quiet, and let the guy who’s been calling games nearly as long as you’ve been alive do his job.

I’m muting the TV again.
