State Championship game

[jellowrestling]

Well, my Trinity Trojans went down last week, but my Highland Park Scots won this week and will play Manvel for the 5A division 1 championship. If you want to see an interesting match-up, I think this will be one. HP wins on execution and game-plan adjustments, while Manvel is one of the most talented teams in the state, with at least a couple of D1 prospects. The game will be Friday at 7pm on Fox Sports Southwest.

Strawn is playing for a six man championship Wednesday.

Manvel is my home town.

When I was school age, Manvel was too small to even have a high school.
We were bused over to Alvin for HS

I want to go to the game, but I don't drive much at night anymore.

GO Manvel!!

My Direct TV schedule says Mavericks are to be shown then.

Will they bump the Maverick game (NBA) and show high school football?

I have Dish as a provider. The listings show that the HP vs. Manvel game is supposed to be on an alternate channel. I don't know if Direct TV has that sort of thing.

The same goes for Wednesday's Mart vs. Refugio game, which I am looking forward to. Sometimes I can see stuff on the alternate channels, sometimes not.

Thursday night's Gunter vs. Newton isn't on my listings. I get Stars hockey instead.

The alternative is to actually go to the games. Unfortunately, we have school all week. Bleah.

Ah, you're right. The HP-Manvel game is on the alternate Fox SW channel (which I have); the Mavs game is on the regular channel. Most of the state championship games are on the regular Fox SW channel.

Who still watches Mavs games? I quit altogether last year as I am boycotting all things Mark Cuban. That also includes Shark Tank which I did enjoy watching. But Cuban's arrogance about politics is a real dealbreaker for me.

I'm right there with you. He doesn't give a rip about the MAVS now that they won one. I will only watch if Dirk is going for something significant.

I can't watch the NBA any more, and college ball isn't entertaining with all the one and done folks. I won't watch anything as long as Cuban or LaVar are involved in any way.

I guess my $90 a month Dish subscription wasn't enough to get me the HP vs. Manvel game. The only reason I even have satellite is to watch the Rangers and stuff like this. Since baseball season ended, my TV has been on less than five times.

This really hacks me off, and I'm about to join the thousands who have dumped them.

[grouchy]

Game is starting. Should be a great game.

Dish has the game, I think. It is on the Fox SW plus channel.

RIght now, Manvel ahead 20-7...ready for extra point.

[Jim Jack]

For some reason, I can't get it and Dish customer support said it's not in my package.

I'm doing a trial subscription of Sling TV and am watching it now.

[LibraryLady2]

My brother says on Dish it is the fox southwest alternative channel.

[Jim Jack]

I didn't scroll far enough up through their alt channels. I see it now. Thanks.

[Jim Jack]

What a barn burner of a football game that was. Amazing.

[LibraryLady2]

Exciting game, even if my team lost.....

My brother said it was blacked out on his dish network--down in Manvel. What a stinky thing to do by the network.

[Jim Jack]

It was blacked out there? That really is terrible.

[LibraryLady2]

I think so too.
But--they will show a recording at 10 AM on Saturday. poo, who cares then?

If I hadn't already seen it, I would watch it. When I go to games that are on TV, I record them and watch them when I get home (or the next morning).

Here's one of the problems with the FSSW-Plus channel. On Spectrum cable we get the FSSW-Plus Standard Def channel, but the High Def channel is a separate subscription. However, if I access Spectrum on my computer I get the High Def channel. It makes no sense.

The Mavericks have priority on FSSW, which leaves Stars hockey fans scrambling for a way to watch the game when it gets bumped to FSSW-Plus. We end up watching on our computers on the Fox Sports Go app.
