2021 Predictions

[ftballfan]

I know we're a few days into 2021, but one other prediction:

The NCAA announcing that the Men's and Women's Final Fours will soon be played in one city instead of two; for example:

New Orleans: Mercedes-Benz Superdome (Men's) and Smoothie King Center (Women's)
Atlanta: Mercedes-Benz Stadium (M) and State Farm Arena (W)
Los Angeles: SoFi Stadium (M) and Staples Center (W)
Dallas: AT&T Stadium (M) and American Airlines Center (W)
Chicago: United Center (M) and Allstate Arena (W)
And so on...

Assuming these potential pairs are for 2022 and beyond

Dallas is located in Texas so is Houston. Also KC/Denver are in AFC West but located closer to Dallas/Houston. Also Miami isn't close to other AFC East Teams but closer to NFC South Teams minus Panthers same with Jacksonville because Colts/Titans would be better in a division with Lions,Browns and Bengals. But no Leagues are going to be geographical.

The Indians will hirer Chris Rose or a Game Show will..

You continue to make no sense.

At one time Weird Al did the song I Lost on Jeopardy, and it sounds like he could have done a song about being on Wheel as well.

he did win on MTV's Remote Control

Just like him, your contributions aren't much better either. Your dumbass "cursed" lists as a prime example.

Out of courtesy to others (even if you feel the "other" has lacked in same), let's avoid overly offensive and insulting terms. We've had a year of partisan invective and abuse, so it would be nice to tone it down here. Please!

These here are predictions doesn't mean what people post will happen.

Regarding the nfl, the whole divisional lineups should be redone Imo in order to create new, better rivalries. If that means moving a few from conferences so be it. Now is the time to do it what with all the unsettled situation due to covid.
I would have Dallas and Houston in the same division and the Jets and Giants in the same division. Miami and Tampa. Rams and Raiders. Shake it up! I know, won’t happen but what if???

How about Youtube competitors such as LBRY, Peertube, Dailymotion, Vimeo, Twitch these venues will be fighting for viewers and content creators. I just don't know how big the audience will be just yet.

Twitch seems to have carved out a pretty good niche for itself with gamers. I don't know how Vimeo and Dailymotion survive, frankly. They have the tired look of the old search engines that were plowed under by Google.

More areas will see traditional cable systems be discontinued in favor of all-streaming. Most likely at least a lot of college/university private MATV/cable systems will be discontinued except maybe just local stations/netlets and campus channels, and then streaming for the rest of the national cable networks.

At least one significant-sized city (at least 10,000 or more population) will lose its cable system in favor of all-satellite or streaming.

Comcast will continue to push X1 and streaming formats and move more channels to at least X1-only (if so, I say at least Digital Preferred packages and up will go all X1 in 2021). They will finally decide to also discontinue SD feeds of cable stations and show HD feeds only (all but maybe basic cable channels and others unavailable in HD will be the only remaining SD feeds on Comcast).

Spectrum has gone to offering a package with all channels available on streaming, along with a cloud DVR that is available on Roku and Apple TV, possibly others, but not on Fire TV. I recently got that package and am running it on my Rokus and an Apple TV box that Spectrum supplied. Unfortunately Spectrum and Roku are in a dispute now unless it's been settled recently.

 

[Mgomrjsurf]

But not all channels are on Streaming on Sprectrum like ESPN and so on. Also not all types of Streaming Devices either.

Somebody will purchase My Network TV. In a next Sports TV Deal MLB/NBA/NFL/NHL channels will get in more involved for postseason Games or so on.

It may depend on the area. Where live in the Jackson, TN area, they just recently went to carrying all channels on streaming, including ESPN, at least on the basic and mid level tiers, which is what I have. Not sure about pay channels like HBO, etc. but I'm buessing they are. I'll admit the streaming package isn't on all devices. I wish it was available on Fire TV. But I do have it on all my Rokus and an Apple TV box.

 

[Mgomrjsurf]

Use to be on Vizio and like Cheddar is on it but the list shows no Sports channels and not all channels that's on Digital Tier when searching what channels you get. Know if get all channels that Sprectrum has in like KC area minus Pay ones a okay.
