Will be grilling steaks out on the back patio, later today. And I have it on there on HULU. As well as two big screens inside the house. Have I ever said that I love ROKU , and HULU ? LOL ------------------------------ If I had a hammer, I would be pulling for Ed Carpenter. In fact, I am !

These guys are driving the first laps, as if they were the last laps. Everybody is charging.

I love the in car cameras.

Watching the start of the race. Been watching for decades... on tv. Looks over cast. Hope it does not rain. Better than what we have been dealing with in the high country in Colorado this holiday weekend : Boulders Boulders Weighing 10 Million Lbs. Close Highway - CBS Denver And avalanches CDOT hopes to reopen avalanche-covered US 550 over Red Mountain Pass by end of month

Attention binge watchers. It's National Streaming Week on Roku. Shows normally behind paywalls at HBO, Showtime, and Cinemax are being offered for free this week only, with ads. To get there, click on the left side of the home page, for featured free. Then scroll down for National Streaming Week.

Thanks for the tip. Though I doubt I will use this. Hope this is handy for others. Hardly a day goes by that I don't discover something new about Cord Cutting.

Can't call it piling on... when it's the truth. The only saving grace is that the game ran so long that most people living in the Eastern half of the nation most likely went to bed before this abortion to the game of basketball finished.

All I have got is.....YEP !

Intensity ? My rear end. Both teams were equally bad, in execution. That's the only reason the game went to 4 over times. YOU are correct. Both teams, as much as I hate to say it (in terms of Denver).... were equally bad.

The passes in the game by both teams were consistent.... just bad. I have attended 8th grade bb games in Colorado, which does not compare to Indiana grade school basketball... where the execution on the court was better than what was displayed by both Denver an Portland on the floor Friday night. If this is the best of NBA playoff basketball... heaven help us

You are correct. If it was not for the fact that it was a Denver team.... I would have turned the game off much earlier than it ended. It really was horrible. And to think these guys get paid millions to put on an exhibition like that. One other thing. Jokic recorded the most minutes played in an NBA game by a seven footer... I think it was over 61 minutes. Did I mention poor coaching also ? With 7 minutes left in regulation... I told my son the "Joker" was gassed, and Plumlee needed to come in for him... instead "Joker" stayed in all four over times, and only scored two points. Hey Vol.... you deserve a medal for lasting through that nightmare, on Friday night.... that some called epic. Epic ? Only in that is was horrible basketball.

The Denver Nuggets went four overtimes on the road Friday night against Portland. Game ended after midnight, Denver time, before Portland pulled it out by two. So, I doubt many of you watched the game. And you are better for it. If it were not the Nuggets, I would have turned the game off long before any of the overtimes. Both teams played crappy. Lousy passing. Poor shot selection. And I don't think either team ever hear of the word..... defense !

For those that liked watching Court TV ( me, me me ! ) it is coming back on May 8th. And will be available on Roku and other streaming devices. The New Court TV Will Stream For Free on Roku, Apple TV, & Amazon Fire TV ________________________ In other Cord Cutting news.... It has just been announced that Cable and Satellite companies lost 1.1 million subscribers in the first three months of 2019.

Moving on..... to the next series. DENVER Nuggets. We've got: Gary Harris..... from Fishers, Indiana. Trey Lyles..... from Indianapolis, Indiana. Mason Plumlee.... from Warsaw, Indiana AND We've got : "The Joker"..... from Serbia !

The story hit the local news here in Denver, tonight, April 22.

Great story. Thanks for sharing.

Droogh. Crazy how one post can evoke memories for members and then another post evoke yet more memories. Thanks for sharing your great memories. I went through Infantry Officer Candidate School at Fort Benning. Marched past the Airborne drop towers. Watched the paratroopers falling out of the sky. In terms of planes. Took my basic training at Fort Dix, New Jersey. Which butts up next to McGuire AFB. While in training we would march in a sand trail that was next to a wire fence separating Fort Dix from McGuire. Perpendicular to the fence was a runway. I swear those air jockeys deliberately would run their jets right up to the fence, while we were marching there, just to scare the junk out of us, before turning on their after burners, and head straight up to the sky. It was scary, and amazing all at the same time.

Yes. Great resource. Luke also has a You Tube channel. Cord Cutters News Yes, I do love Hulu Live TV. But would not want anyone to change because of me. Having said that, most of these streaming services have a free trial period, with no penalty for cancelling. For that matter, should one choose many of the streaming services, and decide to change, there is no contract, and no penalty for opting out.

There are several manufacturers for RokuTV. I am pleased to see that you will be choosing a TCL. According to the research I have done. It is the best. And even better yet. The least expensive. Yeah, no need to wait for 8K for you. In my case I've got multiple Roku setups. I can wait. Highly recommend getting HuluTV, as well. As an example. There are 5 local tv stations in Denver. Hulu supports all but one of them And that's just local news. A free channel called NewsOn.... allows me to watch tv stations, in any and every state in the nation. My son just told me that he has the ability to get over 40K channels for his RokuTV. I did not know that. And when I told him, we don't have enough time to watch what we have now.... we both just laughed. Get that RokuTV. And like Rico, you will love it.

I do have a Chromecast Ultra hooked up to my big screen in the kitchen, along with a Roku (Yeah, I know. But it is great when we have guests over for dinner). I did the Chromecast Ultra, so I could have my Google home send it commands. But I found the Chromecast lacking, in that there is no remote. Instead, you have to use a smart phone as a remote. DirectTV ended their agreement with the NFL network, just this week. NFL network is still available to satalite (SP?) Direct users. No word if the NFL will return to DirectTV right now. It's always a good idea, provided what is available and what one can afford to get the most powerful internet service offered. Fortunately for me, Century Link locked me in , price wise, for life, with their strongest internet. Price never changes. Only the strength.

Yes. Or vice versa, if you add a channel on a device, it will load up on your RokuTV. And to install another Roku device is no different that when you set up your RokuTV. Here's a You Tube video from Roku, for one model. But the set up is the same for all devices. How to set up the Roku Streaming Stick (model 3600) One more recommendation. I have a Roku Ultra on my big screen in my man cave. Perhaps the most expensive device.... just under $100 at Walmart. But can be had for less on line. 4KHD. Voice activated, that I don't use. Ear bugs. Caution, I have found using the ear bugs drains the batteries faster when used. Another neat feature is a remote finder. Simply press a button on the Ultra... and the remote makes a sound you can hear. Introducing the Roku Ultra | Model 4661

In addition to the RokuTV, Roku offers many streaming devices. I have one plugged into every tv in the house. And on one small tv, that I carry out to the back patio, weather permitting. Most devices are relatively inexpensive. And they even have connectors for older tv's that don't have HDMI inputs. One neat thing is if you add a channel on one of your Roku devices.... it automatically adds it to the other devices. Hence, you do not have to go from device to device to add a channel that you want. The best retailer I have found to buy Roku devices is Walmart. They seem to inventory the most. Also, I have bought Roku devices directly from Roku on their website. Find the Best Roku Streaming Device or TV for You | Roku

Truly ala cart tv. One more recommendation. It will cost you. But it is not that bad. I subscribed to HuluTV for my Roku devices, at first just to get the Big Ten Network. This is HuluTV.... not the regular Hulu. I upgraded for like $10.00/mo. for the unlimited device option. Can watch on any Roku device in the house, outside on the back patio... and even on a smart phone away from the house. Hulu | Roku Channel Store | Roku

Rico. Decided to take this discussion off the baseball thread. I am pleased you were able to load the BTN2go app. As time goes by, you will find it easier and easier to navigate on your Roku TV. Keep in mind, that Roku is constantly adding channels. I think currently there are over 3,000 channels available.

Another streaming service, that is available right now, that is free, is Xumo. Recommended by Consumer Reports. I added it to my Roku this weekend. An unbelievable amount of content. And another neat thing, is there is no registration. All Channels & Genres | XUMO They even have a Field and Stream channel for Rico. LOL
