What's a good digital antenna for catching games not on espn?


They are pretty cheap on Amazon. I can pick up all the Baton Rouge stations and even a few out of Lafayette.

Just curious, if you have a firestick and roku then I assume you have Kodi as well...what's the point of Netflix when you have that available to you on the firestick for free?

Yes, 3 years ago and have never regretted it. We pay for Netflix and we have Amazon Prime but hardly ever use their streaming service since the layout is so horrendous. We borrow the in-laws HBO Go login for Game of Thrones. Besides that we have an HD antenna. As someone else said, the biggest problem is when you miss a show you really like. There is no DVR so you can't record anything. I have just learned to not watch any series on TV any more, I binge them on Netflix later. We also use the in-laws login for ESPN but don't use it a ton. We usually go watch football games at a restaurant or something anyway.

I know we are kind of cheating by using logins for HBO Go and ESPN but that's pretty common these days. People trade log-ins all the time and will continue to do so until the cable companies put an end to it, some of them even encourage it.
