TV problem

Hemingway · Post #1 » by **Hemingway** » Thu Apr 17, 2008 6:43 pm

Ok so I agrred to house sit for my aunt for a few weeks (on the water in Florida, how can I pass that up) but as I arrived I found that she only has basic cable. All the Networks and a few others but no ESPN or TNT. Does anyone know what games will be on ABC? It looks like the whole first round is on ESPN and TNT. The only thing I can think of to see the games is to find a bar that is playing them but that is never as good as there is no sound.

Anyone have any ideas? I know I've seen posts on here before about watching the games on the internet but I've never had the need, so I've never read them.

Hope someone can help me out!

I hate to say this, but you are going to have to suck it up and expand her cable package.

They were saying last night during the Dallas-New Orleans game that only the weekend games will be on ESPN, the weekday games on ABC or TNT

Locally, I'm assuming that WEEI will carry all of the radio broadcast of the Celtics playoffs games. If not, the presumption would be WRKO.

Agreed. You're on the water in Florida and the C's are in the playoffs. Be happy!

Just upgrade her cable for one month. It sucks that it'll cost you money, but it's worth it to see the first good team in 20 years.

Hey Hemingway,

Get one of the mods to PM me and I'll navigate you towards some links in which you can watch the games on your computer.

If you go to Buffalo Wild Wings (which I think there are a ton of in FL), you can get one of their little TV speaker boxes...then you can have the volume like u want it right at your table.

I don't think Hemingway would be able to house-sit anymore if he's in BW3 every night... heh
