I don't watch TV. The only exception is UK basketball and football. Up here in Indiana, the most cost-effective way to do that is to subscribe to Youtube TV during the BB and FB seasons, then cancel the off months. YouTubeTV costs $75/month or so, and gives all the ESPN, old-school major network, and SEC network games, so I almost always can watch our wildcats play.

But, honestly, I am about ready to throw in the towel. Cal is driving me crazy (has been for years) with the one-and-dones and his NBA focus. Stoops can't keep a staff together for more than one year. NIL and the transfer portal have changed college sports forever, for the worse. I am honestly finding that, after 50+ years of avid fandom, that I just don't care much any more.

There. I said it. Tiptree is losing interest in UK sports. I am certainly not willing to pay for the privilege of experiencing ever-increasing frustration.

So... this is it. I'll save $75 bucks a month, and lots more money on antacids...

Tip, I cancelled my YouTube TV about six months ago, and I don't miss it at all. 99% of television is just garbage these days. It does suck not having DVR, but like you, I just don't care about college sports that much anymore. Paying players and the transfer portal did it for me.

Tip/PC,

I lost my “fandom” around 2018 or 2019. I thought this team might bring it back a little after watching the way they played against Kansas, but that has not been the case.

Wife's Mad. Told me we never talk anymore. And just last nite while watching super bowl told her 2 or 3 times to get me a coke and popcorn. Also told her not to forget to take out trash in the morning. Ain't that something. Also told me I was too indecisive. Can't figure out what to do about that. One nice thing I guess. She called me a pro crastinator. Don't know what a crastinator is but I guess I'm a good one for her to call me a pro. Gonna wait til tomorrow to look that up though. I love her but somrtimes can't help but thinking I should have told uncle Junior to keep his coon hound pup and stevens double barrel and also his youngest daughter.
