Having a small Thanksgiving family get-together tomorrow. Lunch will consist of veggies, sausage, cheese, crackers, etc. that can be consumed in front of the TV. The real dinner will happen in the evening.
 
We are going to my wife's brother's house this year. I prefer my wife's cooking, but the advantage to the brother in law's house is that dinner is not until 5pm. The Clones can be the priority.
 
I'll be at my parent's who have no cable. I'll record and watch at night. No biggie as long as I get to see it and it's only Indy State.
 
So only the first game is televised or is cyclones.com wrong?
If we win, the next game is on ESPN2. If we win that game, the Champ game is in ESPN. If we win the first game, lose second, I think the 3rd place game is on ESPN2. If we lose the first game, the rest of the games are on ESPNU or WatchESPN. (I say all of that with 75% confidence that I am 100% right)
 
Headed to in-laws in rural NE Iowa. I've told my wife that I will be antisocial during the game, but I'm now having concerns. The only TV with cable there is in the kitchen / dining area. If I sit there and watch the game, someone might want to strike up a conversation and that would cause an incident that would leave my wife mad at me. I really hope that I can get a decent cell signal to stream the game and sit in the corner with headphones on like Thanksgiving should be.
 
My issue is going to family members house that are big hawk fans and NFL - probably don't give 2 ***** about isu basketball....if it was football that would have it on for me.

How much data would it take to stream the game on my phone via watch ESPN?

Don't they have wifi?
I could see them still using 56k modem though, since they are hawks.
 
I'm just hanging with the wife and mom today, they are both huge Cyclone fans too so the bball game is taking priority. Dont have a big family deal until Saturday, today is all about hoops.
 
Heading to my mom's house and the plan is to watch the Vikings game live while the hoops game is recording at my house. I am going to try and stay off twitter and facebook and start watching ISU around 3 or so.
 
11:03 a.m...slid out of the kitchen/living room down toward the man cave. Beer: Check. Faithful yellow lab: Check. No relatives yammering about horrifically boring topics: Check. I am, indeed, thankful.
