Last night less than 5 minutes before kickoff all ESPN channels and Disney channels went off the air and are still off this morning...Charter put up a message that said they are in a dispute with Disney over pricing and will be off the air until it's resolved. The busiest college football weekend of the year and the sorry bastards pull this at kickoff last night...
It has caused a bunch of crap....and folks this way are cancelling Spectrum left and right....It's a two way street with Disney being at fault too.....But to do this 5 minutes before kickoff on ESPN and SECN is complete shizzle...

I have DTV Stream, and my CBS affiliate has been dark for months. I haven?t missed it yet, but if it?s not up for that first big SEC game we?re gonna have a problem.  |

Previously you could get local CBS with the CBS app on Roku. It was like $5.99 per month. I'm sure it is more now. Alternatively, you can get local CBS with Paramount +. It is like $12/month. |

I have Paramount+. Are they streaming the games this year? Because they didn?t last year. I could get all the other CBS shows, but no sports.  |

Problem with that is my TV is mounted to the wall, and getting behind it to hook up an antenna is a major undertaking. |

It's 1:30 CT and it's still off Good excuse to go a local sports bar  I had a challenge of sorts. My 91 year old father recently went into assisted living. Not a full nursing home, just a place where he has a small apartment and they clean, do his laundry, and feed him and make sure he stays on his meds. It's very nice actually. But I'm staying in Knoxville at his house this weekend for a family reunion and he took his big screen TV with him. I am using a small screen TV that my Mom used to watch in the kitchen...it's a 10 inch screen  Still better than my phone though.  |
