    NFL Streaming Thread - 2017/18

    Vepil, where did you find the channel for the Roku? I've got Roku Premiere's and they aren't returning anything when I search for NFL other than the NFL Channel. Granted, doesn't really matter since NFL2Go hasn't accepted my application.

    Ameraves, strange you mention this. I have two Roku Premiere's and Plex has been buffering like crazy lately, despite no changes in location, Wifi strength/bandwidth, or any other factors. I'm not sure the build they are on, would have to check. The one in living room had an update available...

    NBA 2016-17 Season Thread - Knicks in 6

    A tightly called game favors Golden State more lol. The Cavs are the bigger, more physical team who want to slow the game down. Golden State wants to run and benefits from ticky tac calls.

    For a new build, should you even bother with title insurance then? Also, did you roll escrow into your mortgage? You referenced a year's worth of homeowner's insurance so I'm assuming yes. Typically they want 3-4 months of property taxes as well which should be $4-5K in HP.

    NFL 2016 - <whatever Tony is doing>

    Eli might go down as the most overrated QB of all time thanks to David Tyree and Mario Manningham. Not that this is breaking any news. This game just reiterates how much the media overlook mediocre to subpar QB play from the Giants when their defense has been carrying them all season.

    God Trevor Knight is terrible. A&M should be up by 28 with as many turnovers and injuries Tennessee has had. Just an awful game, both sides. Bama should destroy both teams the next 2 weeks.

    Khane, are you asserting that "starvation" mode is a myth and your body doesn't lower metabolism to accommodate a severe caloric restriction (sub 1300)?

    For those that log MFP, do you try to stick to your calories regardless of exercise or account for it in your daily? Using random #'s, if it says to lose X pounds a week eat 2000 calories, but you go run and burn 700. Do you still aim to eat only 2,000, or 2,700?

    That's the strange thing. Wife got pregnant, I got lazy 2nd and 3rd trimester and stopped lifting completely. So was off 5-6 months. Started back up a month ago and after a week or so, immediate soreness, same as before the break.

    Okay, then what do you think is a great tech salary if 150k is modest/good? 250k? 300k? Because 250-300k you're looking at very senior mgr / director / C level of large business. There's not a whole lot of those people out there. If that's your qualification for a "great" salary, then my point...

    Exactly what Cad said. And lol @ Khane saying $150k income is a modest salary. That's near the top 5% ofhouseholdincomes across the US. Guess we need to add Khane to the lendarios 7 figure list.
