Yep. It is a bit clunky but you can do it. It's new this year.

Yeah I know YTTV has it with the Ticket, but that's because it's still somewhat predetermined, they basically offer you every combination (I think). But beyond that I've been waiting for it to be so you can choose any programs, and I think there's limitations in it since none of the hardware is local in your home.

YTTV is like 72/mo and the Ticket is like $300-350 for the season, depending on when you get it with discounts. I had it last year but it was a complete waste of money for me. I barely get enough time to watch the Birds. I just get RedZone now for like $10/mo.

The Juggler

No....it's different this year. As long as you are watching a non national game (or might be an out of market game) you can select individual games to add to the multiview and not be subjected to their preselected combinations. 



edit--oh you mean just regular tv shows? yeah, I don't see that. I feel like at random times it gives you the option though. 

Was it available for baseball last night for you?

Sounds awesome.  Need to get the wife to agree to cut the cable out.

What do you get on YTTV for $72/Month?

The Phillies and Sixers. This is basically the only reasons why I have pseudo cable. And kids are a relatively new sell for having more tee vee for me.

What I will never do again is pay for traditional cable. All Verizon gets from me is money for Internet.

Btw this is looooonnnnng overdue.

Just Phillies & 76ers? No other sports chanels? 

And what about other chanels such as HBO, Showtime, etc.?

I mean yeah there's other stuff in there, but basically the only reason I've ever subscribed to any kind of cable-like service was/is to watch local sports.

Personally, I like that I can customize channels that I definitely do not want to see, like Fox News, so that it doesn't show up in my list of channels. Also, fwiw, you can have to 5 or 6 people in a Google Family and if you're in the same market you can split a subscription. So we pay the extra $20/mo for the 4K/unlimited streams option.

But yeah there's other stuff in there; HBO/Showtime are additional subscriptions.

We're the better team, we should win. Will we? Maybe, baseball playoffs it really doesn't matter outside of who is hotter.

Outside of a sweep this series will not be good for my psyche.

Going to the game tomorrow, I will be unhinged.

Are they though? Since the Mets turned it around, they were the best team in baseball with 100 games left. I would’ve definitely rather have played the brewers. It’s gonna be one hell of a series , that’s for sure

It's really wild how these teams have never played each other in the postseason. They've just never been good consistently at the same time. In this era if the six-team format existed from 1995, the only times both would be in was 2005-2008. In 2005, the Phillies and Mets would have been the fifth and sixth seeds. In 2006, the Mets would have been the top seed, the Phillies fifth. In 2007, the Phillies second and the Mets sixth. In 2008, Phillies second seed and the Mets fifth.

It’s crazy that they never met in playoffs

Just historically bad teams that seemed to always have different cycles going on when they'd be good again. With the added WC spots I figure it should/may happen more frequently now.

another example is 1986 and 1993, the Mets won 108, the Phillies were a distant second. Seven years later, the Phillies led the division from the outset and the Mets were 59-103.
