resolution is pretty nice.....but some stagger in the buffering (and i have a kick ass university connection)....may be something they figure out as the day wears on.

Not bad. I've got a good setup going here at home. Game on tv, game streaming on the laptop, and posting on the desktop.

Life is good.

I signed up for the live stream of the games but I'll holding off on doing that until after hours...I'll probably work a couple hours later than usual tonight and I'll watch the games when everyone else goes home. I've got my laptop and an extra monitor...I'll watch the games on the monitor and still be able to do my regular work. I'm debating over whether or not I might just stay at the office and work into the evening and watch the Michigan game here instead of going home. It's hard to deny watching the games in HD at home but I have a lot of work to do here. For now, I just have CBS's scoreboard page on the other screen and I'll glance over every so often to see the scores.

MM OD is blocked at my work.

Fuck that shit. I have no way to listen to the games now because you can't get the tournament over the interwebs without MM OD.

I didn't sign up for the streaming because I got the direct TV package for the tourney and work from home whenever possible. Wouldn't you know the other night the big screen started screwing up with this humming sound and the picture not showing up! Bought it from Circuit City with a warranty but they are belly up so you have to contact the place personally. These Sorry SOBs said I had to report it through a fax line and I can never get in contact with a human... finally said screw it and called Sears about getting it repaired... earliest they can come out is next freakin' Friday!!!

To the Sports bar for me tonight. I have the CBS game tracker up in the background and am listening to the local game being called with TV blaring from my bedroom. Not the end of the world for me though disappointing and a waste of $69. I'll still get to see it with a handful of Sooners but OU just doesn't get the same support for basketball as football from the fans either in Norman or in other locations as far as watch parties and such.
