ESPN! ESPN Everywhere!

The Schwab and I have moved. And while researching cable options, we decided to go with the fancy new fios offerings from Verizon, with their promised clear picture capabilities and millions of channels. Upon the departure of our helpful, friendly installer…..the Schwab began to channel surf (one of his all-time favorite past-times, closely followed by obsessive compulsively clicking through radio programs, making extended car rides a joy. Honestly.) and discovered…..every ESPN and NFL channel known to man. Joy. I was unaware of the proliferation of ESPN programming. A whole channel just for ESPN News. An entire channel dedicated to college sports. And on and on and on. And the NFL Network too! The Schwab, with visions of himself parked for hours in front of the T.V. with nothing but sports coverage to be consumed by, was delirious with anticipation and happiness.
I fear for my "sports widowdom", especially during football season. It's a good thing we have more than one television in the new pad.
