What are you watching at 3:30 Saturday afternoon ?

Years back we had this huge tv with PIP. Theoretically, you could watch two events on a split screen. It didn't work for me. In trying to watch two games at the same time, I found that I was actually watching neither of them.
But maybe that's just me.

Watching multiple things at once is like my personal nightmare. I like to focus in on what I am watching and get annoyed if someone so much as talks to me.

I will probably watch the basketball live and then watch the football after on recording without looking up the score at all before I start watching.
 
Both…plus other football games…at a bar. Easy-peasy..

Gotta agree with kbee. Trying to watch two games at the same time.. not easy to fully immerse in both.
 
I will probably be opposite of fluoxetine. Watch football and tape basketball. My daughters good friend is home from school this weekend. She goes to MSU and will probably be over at our house for the game.

Me too. I think I'll watch the football game and record the basketball game.

Visiting my in-laws who are weirdly a non-sports family.
I usually have to hide in a bedroom and watch games alone while everyone else sits together in the living room and has a kids movie on the tv.

We have some Cirque de sole holiday show Saturday and then “family pictures” at 4pm.

I’m going to have to watch both games later.

Am recording them remotely through Xfinity - can I rewatch on my phone and maybe cast to their tv?
Maybe I’ll record them both on my in-laws tv as well?
Will be watching both later that night.

This is a f’n disaster.
 
This is a great point.
Hadn’t really considered that.
Old VHS tapes are excellent for stacking up to block the ticker and minimal of the game.

As long as the game you are looking to avoid isn’t one of the major ones, a full screen update is unlikely. Just have to be careful around halftime. No problem with a different sport being avoided.

Unless the TV is mounted well above any surface below - could require a small mountain of tapes or maybe game boxes. My recommendation would be to cut a 2" strip (by as many feet wide as one needs) of wrapping paper and tape it at each end to the back of the TV. I wouldn't use even painter's tape directly on a TV, as the adhesive residue could affect the TV surface, although not 100% sure on that, but why take the risk when there are non-tape solutions?

Unfortunately, whatever game you watch it's hard to the avoid the real-time score that's on the bottom of the screen.
They really need an option to drop that off the screen. Would only increase eyeballs across sports programming.
 
Rutgers football at Michigan St. or Rutgers basketball vs. Texas A&M in Las Vegas ?
I bet big money on Illinois to beat NU big.

The spread of 7.5 and the over/under of 43.5 are far too low.

Northwestern’s QBs are arguably the worst in the Big Ten!
 
DVR football and watch hoops live. At half time try to catch up on football as much as possible.
 
Kinda hard to watch devils tomorrow at 3 when they are playing today at 3pm 🤪🤪🤪🤪

Just pick the best FB game at 3:30 for 3rd tv
 
Plan went awry. Watched football and glanced at basketball during ads and couldn't follow.
Watching football on TV and hoops on my laptop, while occasionally posting from my phone, largely worked for me, although I missed a few plays here and there. Will probably rewatch football, as I like rewatching wins, but probably won't rewatch hoops, as I hate reliving losses.
