Default Huge dilemma this weekend for sports fans!?

So, we have the Flames-Wings, Colts-Pats, Stamps-Saskwatch game all at the same time this Sunday afternoon!? How the heck does one resolve this!? My shaw PVR let's me record 2 shows at once, but I have to be watching one of the two recordings without changing channel- otherwise I would simply watch Stamps game live and PVR the other two.

I'm leaning towards watching the Stamps live on TSN, PVRing the NFL game, and watching the Flames online while I watch Stamps on tv.

I'll skip the Flames losing and watch the Stamps game.

Not a big NFL'er, so not concerned about the Pats game.

Go to a bar.
On my tv I have a favorites I can cycle through so I could have those 3 games on and just keep flipping the channel. Would be nice to have PIP though.

at the Stamps game, cheering the boys on to the Grey Cup
I can live with missing a Flames game vs Detroit, there are 82 a year and this season has been less then spectacular for the Flames. wouldn't have watched the NFL game if I was at home anyways

Flames game live. Turn it to Pats during the commercial breaks and intermissions. Will check in on the West Final from time to time, but will not miss the any of the Flames game.

I think the real question here is: Do I make chili or braised short ribs? Either way something's going in the crock pot.

RIBS!!

And we really should add various forms of pornography to the "what to watch dilemma".

Two PVR's with an HDMI switching amp. A second smaller TV helps as well. Don't miss a thing.

Going to the Stamps game. It will be one for the ages. Playoff game to go to the Grey Cup, Packed house, cold weather, maybe add some snow in there and a little Whiskey and life is good watching the Stamps trounce the Riders.

just get a cable splitter and hook up a line to your PVR, then one directly to your TV.
Watch the Stamps game on TSN with your TV and PVR the other two shows..... you can even flip back and forth....
problem solved
