I ended up re-subscribing to it as Cuse was on last night and I figured between Sabres and Cuse, I’d get my money worth pretty quickly. It will be on ESPN+ for people outside of the Sabres home market. 1 hour ago, PromoTheRobot said: Actually it is on ESPN+. The games @bob_sauve28 listed are exclusives and not on MSG. The only games that won't be on ESPN+ are two TNT games, and those are late in the season. But for viewers in the Buffalo home market it's blacked out on ESPN+ I believe. Quote

Marvin Posted October 28, 2021 Report Posted October 28, 2021 I'm almost 57. I will have this on the radio when I go to sleep. Kind of like I used to do as a child -- except that Ted and Rick were so far out of Dunleavy's league as announcers that he might put me to sleep. Heck, when Nixon had the wage and price freeze due to OPEC's oil embargo (speed limits cut to 50 nationwide before being upped to 55; year-around daylight savings time, etc.), there was a game in Vancouver which started at midnight. I was up for even that one. (OK, I set my alarm clock to go off at 12. I fell back asleep about 3am.) My parents were not amused at how sleepy I was the next morning. 3 1 1 Quote

I remember as a kid (late 70's) getting up and running to the drug store to buy a morning paper to see if the Sabres beat the LA Kings. They did. Like 6-1 and Gilbert had a really good game, if I remember correctly. Times have sure changed 2 Quote

Deadline was almost always too early for them to be included. Quote

But for viewers in the Buffalo home market it's blacked out on ESPN+ I believe. ESPN+ is definitely blacked out when in-market and Sabres games are on MSG. I checked (and keep checking) because I get better picture quality and features on ESPN+ vs Spectrum. Edit: I should note, I watch through the Hulu app and not the ESPN app. Not sure if that makes a difference... Edited October 28, 2021 by SHAAAUGHT!!! Quote

Plus with Ray talking during the action you'll miss everything anyway. Is he aware it's simulcast on radio because he doesn't shut up while play is going on. 2 Quote

sabresouth Posted October 28, 2021 Report Posted October 28, 2021 I'll be taking a nap in my recliner before the game and hope to then be able to stay conscious for the rest of the game. Hopefully it will be a good game for the good guys, that will help 1 Quote
Mustache of God Posted October 28, 2021 Report Posted October 28, 2021 I've always been a fan of the 10pm games - lets you get everything done for the day and then you can crack open a cold one to cap to night off and if the game is boring you can drift off to sleep. 1 Quote
