Giants for the win

January 15, 2012 2:07 PM

Giants vs. Green Bay? Is there any way to stream online?

Sitting in a hotel in Manhattan and its time warner cable that keeps cutting out every 5 seconds due to demand. Have a 6MB internet connection and HDMI cable?

Anyone have ideas? Google-fu reveals lots of spammy pay sites.

You can try unplugging the cable from the wall, keep it on the tv as an antenna and trying to tune into the air broadcast.

Know it. Love it. May be of questionable legality.

dixiecupdrinking --- thank you! The quality is better than regular cable :)

For those that want to know - using a 4G phone, untethered to wifi connect on laptop with HDMI out on 37" flatscreen. Absolutely perfect.

Also love the commercials are included.

holy cow, firstrow is actually 2 - 3 seconds ahead of my cable feed.

Time to make some $$$ on prop bets.
