So, while I already have her setup with my Netflix account, I have also purchased youtube tv for her to have that option, but the Samsung tv doesn't allow the youtube app to be added. Is that correct? So, the route for me to go, is to purchase her a Roku, and the app should be there, correct?

Any knowledge would be helpful.


How old is the Samsung TV?

Roku should work as well.

Ayo spud, speaking of disgrace to the world ... I've been saying a long time that journalism, as we know (or knew) it is ded.

This morning on NBARadio, Frank Isola read a rumor that he had been telling people that he was leaving the paper he works at ahead of layoffs. He was like, "Uh, no I didn't".

They brought the guy on who had put the rumor out. He's from a rival paper and he'd gotten news that Frank's paper is preparing to lay off most of their sports writers and whatnot. This interview happened at 9:35am. Apparently the cut-meeting was scheduled for 9am and was ongoing as they were talking to this guy.

The guy went into detail how the meeting was being led by the digital content editor, etc. so it's clear they're going to digital and whatnot.

It was fascinating to basically join Isola in learning that he's likely being fired from his paper today in favor of a bunch of interns to re-write "news" they google everyday.

Wha? Nah, me and @jamalllayoaiwon worked to an uneasy truce. If anything, he's probably sick of the new ... let's call them player-specific fans. I certainly post less now for .... reasons.

Playstation Vue. I've used them all. PSVUE is the only one that makes watching basketball on dvr bearable. You don't need a playstation btw.
