    The Vue TV package is intriguing. For around $35.00/month the package has more sports to choose from. The cloud DVR and ability to stream on 5 diff devices is making it my next choice. Roku synced up with Vue this past June so ready for a trial run.
    This is the one I'm looking out:

    Core Slim Plan: $34.99/month. Has all the ESPN channels including SEC Network and Fox sports stations.
    Some Local channels:

    Did any one notice Jimbo having his QB back at halftime. When asked about his offense he said the rest of the team had to step up and play to give him some help. Catch passes and block up front was what was needed for success. The freshman came out and lit it up in the second half. Great way to instill confidence.

    Saban did it too, after the fumble he put him right back out there throwing the ball.

    Our guy makes a mistake and we hide him behind the run game. No wonder he can't do anything.

    Sling allows only one stream at a time. If I can more with Vue I think I'll be switching to that.

    I'd say yes... but only if you have a good streaming device (i.e. not a Fire Stick but a Fire TV, not a Roku 1 but a Roku 3, etc.) and good download speed from your ISP.

    The answer will always be what you need. Do you need multiple streams? DVR? Bigger sports package? Then it's Vue.

    If you need the entire SEC TV Package but can live with one stream and you want the best price by $10.00/month, then Sling TV will do that.
    If you're just starting, Sling will give you a $60.00 Roku player free if you sign up for a 3-month subscription. So you're getting the first 3 months free. Even for cheapskates, and you know who you are, it's a great deal.

    Some folks will just listen on the radio (not that there is anything wrong with that) and you know who you are.

    You don't have to have a Playstation anymore. Works just like Sling TV now.
