I see more activity here late at night these days. Being home with no live sports, what is everyone watching?
For me it's been a lot of classic NBA, just found Knicks-Detroit 1984 playoffs on YouTube, vintage Bernard King and Isiah. NBA Network showing a lot of good stuff, I'll probably get into some 90s Knicks playoffs. Watched Yankees-Seattle from 95 and Yankees-Boston from 78 on MLB over the weekend. NFL is showing old games too but no Jets. Last year at this time I got into a bunch of Sack Exchange era games on YouTube, will probably get back to some old Jets eventually.

Kenny vs. Spenny re-runs. Does that count?
-
I've been watching AEW - I know wrestling is cheesy but I grew up on WCW\NWO and WWF Attitude - this definitely hits those marks. Also the last show was in an empty arena which was surreal.

CNBC- watching these guys try to predict things is hilarious.

I hope all you guys can watch is the hot dog eating contest on ESPN2

It all counts.

Would have guessed an endless loop of Chappelle's Show.
I cant take the news for too long these days, just pumping this excrement up with numbers and arrows but no context.

Jets-Dallas on NFLN now, our tailgate game.

Bro, best show ever

The dead octopus episode is as good as TV gets.

Gooden pitching in the 94 opener at Wrigley right now on MLB.
EDIT. Never mind, they're pulling him.
-
1986 NLCS on MLB, Game 5 at Shea now, classic Game 6 next.
-
NBA TV had 90s Knicks-Bulls all day yesterday and the 88 Dodgers at night, had to record that. Too much good stuff. #QuarantineLife

MLB showing some vintage Guidry games tonight, they were on today too. Two of them against LA.

Ten year anniversary of 9/11, giant flags, Romo, Revis, Rex. #MustSeeTV

I was at that game and to this day I still believe Revis was pointing at me in the lower bowl after picking off Romo when he was guarding Dez to seal it.

I was there but way upstairs. I forgot Rob Ryan was with Dallas then.

To be fair my tickets were in the upper deck behind the goal post but I snuck into the lower bowl 30 yard line. I was very drunk

These things belong together

The Joe McKnight game tying punt block cutting to James Gandolfini celebrating in the crowd really hits you in the feels

Too funny.
Revis and Dez was an epic battle, I noticed it more last night than I did from the upper deck that night. Mostly the jawing after every ball thrown their way.

That's really cool.

The English Football League (i.e. the three leagues below the Premier League) have stated that they don't know when they will be able to return, but that when they can the plan is to finish the season with games played behind closed doors, with broadcast deals in place to allow fans to watch every single game online (normally there's a very aggressive blackout program). Will be weird but it's the right decision - you can't cancel the season at this stage.

I've been watching a lot of Kobe Bryant's best games lately.

...the plan is to finish the season with games played behind closed doors...
So they will look like games played in the US.

Same. I'm closing in on seeing every NBA game ever played. Tomorrow 2-10 pm MSG is running some key games from the Knicks 1999 run to the Finals.
-
Golf officially to start June 2nd, without spectators in Fort Worth Texas
-
Finally saw Game 6 on Knicks-Indiana from 1999 when we made the Finals. I was stuck in O'Hare that night and never got to see that game until the other night. MSG has been showing a lot of good stuff from the 80s and 90s.

Bundesliga looks like it could return May 9th, just awaiting approval from the German government. Will be played in empty stadia with a maximum of 300 people totalled allowed in (staff, players etc) and all players tested weekly for COVID.
If this happens, then as the first major sports league in the world to resume service it's likely going to have a massive viewership boost from people just desperate to watch any kind of sport.

Devils Cup marathon on MSG Saturday, if MJ sees this. Take a break from your bundle of sticks Bulls documentary.

Loved the first two episodes, but I felt horrible for Krause watching that. There's a lot they didn't get into in terms of Phil petulantly doing the "this is my last year because I can't motivate these guys anymore" bit that he did every offseason, or other things in terms of ego-management or owner directives from Jerry's perspective that we can't get into because he's dead. I have sincere doubts if Jordan returns if the supporting cast at that point would have been good enough to beat the Spurs and their twin towers in 99. Rodman was totally shot, Pippen was still exceptional but not a top 10 player in the league anymore and they had no depth in terms of big men outside of Longley who was also immobile and fragile at that point. Where Krause and Reinsdorf (who's the biggest jackoff alive and would absolutely be James Dolan central if Portland doesn't take Same Bowie) erred is not taking care of Pippen after the 95 season when it was blatantly obvious how underpaid he was. Otherwise the run was beautiful and if anything, the breakup occurring the way it did has given it added mystique because unlike most other notable dynasty's it didn't conclude by losing on the court.
Glad to see all those years of sucking the teams derriere got Rick Telander in the show though, what a freaking clod.
I actually found Heaven in my old VHS tapes that I somehow have up at my house and didn't leave at my parents. Of course, I don't have a VCR so I'm excrement out of luck until the local Savers reopens.

I actually watched it because I've already seen Ewing's whole career again. The 99 Knicks were formidable when at full strength, with Ewing, LJ, Houston starting, Sprewell and Camby coming off the bench. They reached the Finals at half strength with Ewing and LJ hurt.

Watching 2003 Game 7, Devils vs Ducks. Last championship for any of my teams and HD wasn't invented yet.

On one hand who gives a freak given the result, but on the other-freak the voters for robbing MB out off the Conn Smythe, and freak Barry Melrose for admonishing Devils fans because they booed Giguere when he was announced as the winner.

Don't know about US broadcast channels (this is UK), but live sport is back.

Agreed. Even more egregious because Marty was already one of the greatest goaltenders of all time, if not the greatest. Had it been the other way around and they gave the award to the legend it would still be wrong but at least more understandable. Or if the roles were reversed with Brodeur vs Roy in 2001 and they gave Roy the Conn Smythe. It's why I only really pay attention to titles that are earned and not awarded. By 2003 Marty had won three Cups, a gold medal for Canada and was in a Game 7 vs Roy for another Cup. Giguere had a cool nickname on SportsCenter.
In the end, like you said, I'll take the win and the Cup.

Devils fans find a bag of fifties and bitch its not a bag of 100's. Grandma Moses could have played goalie for you guys and won, MB one of the most overrated goalies of all time. He certainly wasn't top 2 of his own era let alone all time.

Eeeesh, I'm glad you said that but I was thinking it as well. Is there anyone who isn't a Devils fan who would take prime Brodeur over prime Hasek?

To answer your question, No there isn't.
Normally, I say excrement to be a giant dick, I honestly didn't want to go there with MB.
I would hope there are honest fans of literally any team that wouldn't take any goalie over Hasek. Hasek is the best goalie of at least the last 40 years. Usually best of <insert position and player> are almost always arguable. Looking at the numbers and the teams he played on, no reasonable hockey person would say that Hasek was anything but the best.
