Life Hack: Watch the SB LIII on TV, but LISTEN on the Radio

Life Hack: Watch the SB LIII on TV, but LISTEN on the Radio

So, our beloved Pats are back in the big game again. I’m not going to relay stats and numbers that drive home the dynasty known as the New England Patriots. We are all aware of them. However, if you want to enjoy the game completely, do it with the sound of the TV OFF!!!

Yup. Turn off the talking heads on your TV and turn up your radio (or app). The best way for Pats fans to enjoy the game (IMO) is to listen to 98.5 the Sports Hub broadcast of Bob Socci and Scott Zolak. Now your wife (or husband) may want to ooogle over Tony Romo in the broadcast booth for CBS, but they can still see him, so no biggie, right?

Listening to Socci and Zo will allow the Pats fan the ability to focus on what’s important, the game and not all the fluff. You can easily turn down the radio and up the tv volume for your favorite commercials, of course!

Note: You may need to get creative with syncing the TV broadcast with the radio broadcast, but it’s not hard.
