Watch inside the nba on Thursday nights if you have tnt, bunch of ignorant black former NBA players clowning on the show

TSN, SportsNet, and The Score.

I also have NHL Center Ice right now, because it's free.


Never heard of vipbox.
I also do not have TNT or TSN.
Ironically though, I used to have Rogers basic cable (And had it for like 10years) until last year I switched to Bell Digital Cable and now have the channels I didnt have before (Like RSN1 + all the regional ones like West, Pacific....I only had Ontario before)
So essentially, now I get more Jays games with Bell but I lose out on Raptors games since I used to have TSN on my old basic cable.
Really happy when TheScore has full NBA games at night (They throw some up occasionally those at 10:30PM EST)
RSN1 would also have Raptors games once a week (Wednesdays usually)
Pumped though, my first year to have full access to 162 full-season games of Jays

What channels you guys watch for sports?
Aside from the obvious RSN for blue jay games.
After the baseball season I got myself much more into basketball + football and enjoy a program called 'Live @ TheScore'. It is essentially a roundtable discussion about topics and stuff in sports.
Got bad though when hockey season came back on and it was all they talked about. I used to watch it daily.

Its true though!
When Justin Upton was traded, I wanted to hear some casual-fan-analysis of the breakdown on Live@TheScore and what I saw was a loaded segment of Hockey which I didn't watch. (Thank God they display what they will talk about on the bottom as an agenda...otherwise I'd actually sit through it and wait for something not-hockey)

Why don't you like it though

I know like 100s of Canadian girls who watch hockey and 0.5 that watch baseball

Stream site to watch NBA/MLB/Soccer games (Left out handegg and hockey cause irrelevant joke of a sport)

Man, I can't even explain it. I try to come up with some rationality behind it...
I also do not enjoy soccer if that helps, I actually kinda find both of them similar. You are essentially sliding a ball instead of a puck to a goal.
Both of those sports have someone trying to block shots.
So whats the difference with basketball and football?
You use your hands? I got no clue. I guess I like the strategy behind those sports; especially when you consider how there are different methods of scoring (FT, FG, 3pt, etc) I also find that defense is more complex in football compared to hockey.
I enjoy the individuality of baseball + strategies of constructing a team (Having high speed with OBP guys...or having flamethrowers in a back end of a bullpen)
I find hockey is too one-dimensional.

There's plenty of ways to construct an NHL team.

To each his own

I don't get upset when someone tells me they don't like a sport, because there's nothing wrong with that. I just happen to like most sports



Edit: However, if you claim that a sport is bad then I do have grounds to be upset ;D

Naw, thats not cool bro, I never said hockey was bad. I just said I don't like it; and then threw reasons why I don't.
