I love watching Kerri Walsh Jennings play. So few things as fun as watching a spectacular athelete dominating their sport.

I don't know what I'll do when KJW finally retires. I've looked forward to the Summer games for so long becaues of her. This year I'm also into watching some of the US swimmers and the US Women's Soccer team.

This is the first thing that ive been missing out on without cable. I liked flipping between 7 stations with random events on.

I called my cable provider yesterday to kill all of it. But I couldn't pull the trigger on the whole thing. I chickened out. So I just dropped all my premium channels and a ton of the shit I don't watch. I kept the DVR, too. But I think I might cut that in another month or so. I don't know.

We are very happy with our decision. I just need to nut up and shell out for HBO Now. Because I really want to watch "the night of"

Same. I cut HBO. I'd watched the first 2 episodes of The Night Of and I really want to see the rest of it. We have an Apple TV we still haven't hooked up. I'll do that soon (ish).

We swapped out Chromecast for Fire Stick last week, and I think we're probably set on the media consumption program for at least a few years. The live streaming on Fire -- including the Olympics on NBC, and CBS News -- is every bit as stable and clean as watching on cable.

im getting regular NBC over the air and watching some. But it's not the same as being able to pick between 4 things id never watch otherwise.

Great finish.

Yeah that crash looked awful. My girlfriend and I both screamed in horror. The longer they say we have no updates the more I think she might have died.
