So I did just have a chat with DAZN and they said that they'll support up to 1080p at 50fps (obviously depends on your internet speeds). They also said they should be supporting surround sound this year, which would be new if true. I'm fairly skeptical of the surround sound part just because most live-streaming sports services seem to have trouble offering it.

Hardwired. I'm skeptical of 1080p @ 50 fps but it's cheaper than Sunday Ticket through the cable providers so I may give them another chance.

I went back through my twitter feed to see how far along in the year I was still bitching at them for their crappy service and it looks like I stopped around October and most others did, too. That said, I think it was still an improvement over 2017, so I'm willing to give them another shot especially because I they've added much more soccer content as well.

I'm going to give it a shot, and hopefully the surround sound works. I love it when watching on TV, the sound makes it very immersive.

Watching the pre-season? I wonder if they have it enabled for pre-season. But that of course would be a great time to work out the kinks..

Not sure if it's been discussed, but the NFL preseason game in Winnipeg looks like it could be a spectacular flop:

https://ca.sports.yahoo.com/news/rai...190526385.html

$191 to watch a preseason game? Color me shocked that the interest is low. Apparently they had $75 seats in the corner of the upper deck, but they are sold out.

Yeah, I mean who wouldn't want to pay $200 to watch Nathan Peterman and Deshone Kizer duke it out?

I’d pay those prices in Winnipeg if they played on the larger field under CFL rules. I think that would be fascinating

This is fine. Everything is fine.

When players go “radio silent” on their respective teams this time of year, it’s usually because they’re holding out.

That isn’t the case for Antonio Brown, but the Oakland Raiders apparently can’t get a hold of him.

According to Pro Football Talk, Chase Williams of WPXI, the NBC affiliate in Pittsburgh, has reported that Brown already has gone “radio silent” on the Raiders, as he obtains treatment away from the team on feet that were frostbitten last month in a cryotherapy chamber.

Here’s the specific content of the tweet from Williams: “10 practices into training camp and Antonio Brown has already gone ‘radio silent’ with the Raiders. They have zero clue where he is or what the progress of the foot injury is.”

I mean maybe his old helmet is why he's so ####ed in the head, so perhaps a new one isn't a bad idea.
