I indulge her in this case - she gets the good TV and uses her laptop while watching all the vital shows she enjoys. I use the desktop and listen to my music online. An acceptable arrangement except when Football is on - then I customarily kick her off and settle in on the couch with a libation.



Etiam non princeps sed usque ad genua, Principis Pacis!

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

I figured that all you people who can't watch the Superbowl live might enjoy a snapshot or two of the game ... beginning with the coin toss.

Those Chevrolet (AKA Gummint Motors) “click on this ad to see the ad” commercials are getting repetitious and irritating, real fast....

...all the vital shows...

SECOND question - who can't live a life without TV? Just heard on the SB broadcast - Madonna will officially make her DEBUT at the Superbowl. What is she - like 80? Could be good times for your most-significant other.

I have an iPad II it works. Decided to test it and it came right in.

I went to Safari.

Then I went to NFL.com

Then I clicked on watch it live, then clicked on the NBC link. The NBC link has a way you can click and watch it.

Here is the link from my iPad II (perhaps it’s a little different).

The video on the link is rather low resolution.

Fortunately I was able to get an antenna that works to watch the Super Bowl in HD even though the local NBC affiliate and Time-Warner are still at an impasse about carrying the channel on cable. The NBC affiliate was running promos suggesting viewers switch to Grande or get satellite service from Dish Network or DirecTV. Time Warner was giving out free antennas.

Is it only the online camera that isn’t following the ball? Manning passes and the camera stays with him...

I'll pass on the halftime show. It's usually gaudy, vulgar and Philistine. I wouldn't pay a penny to see Madonna and I see no reason to watch her on my computer - I'd probably end up with another virus.

” I’d probably end up with another virus.”

Whatever diseases Madonna will be disseminating would be bacterial in nature - of course, how would one administer penecillin to a computer??

There’s multiple cameras. Try clicking on a different Camera.

If that does not work, then go to www.nbc.com and start over.

I tried it on the iPad, and it indeed works, which is better than I expected. I’d love to see the specs on the pipe(s) they have going for net access.

10 years ago I never would have imagined being able to watch the superbowl while going down the road in a car, and all you’d need to make it happen is a cell phone and small computer that weighs less than a pound.

Did I just hear correctly??

I think I heard a Chevrolet ad for the “Apocalypse-proof Silverado”...

Speechless.... (almost)
