The one big difference between streaming a football game and watching it on cable - is the ability to change channels during commercials or halftime and watching something else - that is something that streaming doesn't easily allow - I wonder how consumers will feel about that?

Two unrelated things:

1. RED ZONE makes perfect sense if you understand where it fits in the NFL’s ecosystem. It’s a(n expensive) subscription that attracts hardcore NFL fans and degenerate gamblers (mostly fantasy footballers). It’s basically the crack cocaine of NFL watching.

2. Quick Change is Bill Murray’s most under appreciated movie, especially by Bill Murray. Setting aside his feelings about the movie, it’s legit his best ā€œtoo-cool-for-schoolā€ performance ever. Geena Davis and Randy Quaid are note-perfect in their roles, too. Honestly, if we were doing a Bill Murray movie draft Quick Change would probably be my first pick.
