Why can't you post a properly formatted link?  Why they are always in quotes?  

That’s a lot of links. 

What I can say regarding cord cutting and live sports: it kind of sucks. I have tried Hulu Live, PSVue, and DirecTV now, and each one at different times has suffered lag or freezing, and you will always be a few seconds behind. So turn off your phone/text messages unless you want spoilers. 

Honestly, I have had more success watching pirate feeds on my computer, sad as it is to say. 

I didn't follow any of those links, what's the bottom line? Me and the missus have Psvue (almost top tier, no HBO/Showtime) on 3 Roku streaming sticks and it gives me everything I want. As long as this doesn't fuck with that...don't care.

Yeah, I've tried a bunch without success.   Only reason I still have cable is for live sports, specifically CFB and MBB.  Thankfully a skinny package gets me all bundled up for now.

Oh, I stick it in the quote box... I'm probably just doing it wrong...
