    They sent me a conversion box and I never hooked it up...I don't really watch regular tv anyway. ABC is the only channel that doesn't broadcast an analog signal.

    I thought broadcasted on analog anymore. I thought it was all digital.

    Trump threatening to sue ABC for allowing Kimmel to return. Which is not a crime.

    Since we are on the whole can I get it can I not…….. we are broadcasting only 2 games this preseason. 1st and last games, both against Golden State. Other than that, you have to hope they steal the big screen feed again.

    Ironically, I just watched a 50+minute clip on YouTube of Jasmine Crockett absolutely own and then destroy Jim Jordan (Head of the House Judiciary committee!!!) on his utter lack of legal knowledge. The upshot of that confrontation is that the house passed a resolution requiring constitutional law training for all House members AND Jordan actually issued an apology for anyone who might have been harmed by his lack of legal understanding. F. Lee Trump obviously did not get the memo.......

    That monologue was freaking great. Really had never watched Kimmel before but he tried to bring unity in it, which I respected greatly.

    Trump trying to get him back off the air is ALL you need to know.

    Just watch the monologue and youll see who was in the right the entire time.

    It certainly took me by surprise. and he actually looked and sounded sincere. It will be interesting to see if he keeps his assholeyness in better check going forward....

    6.25 million people to watch his return and now he's back down to 2.3 million by the end of the week ... still better than the 1.8 or so he was drawing pre-cancellation but not great that he couldn't even hold 50% of that Tuesday number for two more shows as he was off on Friday.
