Bad Timing - Can’t Watch the Game

[Liberator]

If it's just reddit that's blocked I can PM you a stream tomorrow as long as the power doesn't go out LOL

as someone said buffstream is good, I also use sportshd on my xbox sometimes if I have people over to watch redzone.

Is there a way to listen to the game on the internet without getting DNA rifle blocked?

If you have DNA rifle blockage, that's a whole other problem, and you should probably get that checked into. Probably the reason you're always the jerk you are.

The reason we are the early game is that the NFL flips the NFC and AFC Championships every year... next year the NFC will be the late game.

Oh... and you will call in sick as hell. Do it tonight just to make sure.

Huh. Didn't know they had that on rotation, too. I thought they just programmed it based on what they thought was the bigger match-up for the prime slot.

I'm going to miss the game too. Going to watch it tape delayed style when I get back from looking at a wedding venue. :help:

I heard the same report this week on a segment, about how the time slots for the Championship Games flip flop annually. I never knew it either. Seems fair though.

Rule of thumb on calling in sick. You have to use one of two excuses. You are either throwing up, or you have diarrhea. Either way, no one wants you at work. And if you really want to push it, you have both.

Years ago when working for a National Association, I brought all my employees in and told them if they need a day off to call in sick. If I wasn't there to take their call, whomever they talked to, tell them one of those reasons. No one will question you. Both can happen at a moments notice and both can clear up in 24 hours.

Bruh, call in sick.

Just record it and watch it when you get home
Dont open the internet and turn off the radio until you get home. And you can fast forward through commercials so its even better.

I do this when I have to work during an away game. My guys all know not to say a word to me about the game, and they're great about it! Not Sure how Loyal's coworkers are but...

You at least be able to get it on the radio with an app. I think Tune In radio app has it. You are the expert at listening to football radio talk shows around the country.

I'm listening to Farr and Myles right now.

I can sort of relate. I have to fly out tomorrow at 4:00 so one way or the other I’m enroute to LAX for part of the game :-/

I'm just hoping the blizzard doesn't affect Directv on the east coast . I might have to visit the local sports bar to watch it

Just tuning into a station on TuneIn, they give the automated message that they can’t broadcast the game on the internet due to FCC regulations....

Try TSN (Canadian sports) radio. Idk if it works in the US but if it does they have the games on tomorrow. tsn.ca/montreal then click the listen live button.

Doesn’t your employer give you sick days?

 

[Dodgersrf]

I would tell my boss I'm not coming in because it's the NFL playoffs and the Rams are playing.
I'm just below the president of our company and he would know why I called in sick anyway.

True story.
During the world cup, we closed our plant down during the hours Mexico was playing. It was such a big deal, for many of our employees to be able to watch it.

Some companies I've worked for when I was younger don't even give people paid piss breaks let alone paid sick days.

 

[SteezyEndo]

Some companies I've worked for when I was younger don't even give people paid tick breaks let alone paid sick days.

Hmmmm I actually thought it was a national requirement for employers to give employees 3 sick days every year, and if you don’t use them in that year you lose them... I don’t know seems pretty steep if they didn’t.

Here in my province we have 5, but no where does it say they have to be paid sick days. Which of course just incentivizes people to go to work sick....

I've had an ongoing joke over the years when an employee calls in sick. I'd say, "Oh really, sick of what? Working?"

And I would say yes. I wouldn’t see that as grounds for termination especially if I was a stellar employee in the first place.
