Desperate Plea: anyone watching the game in Yangon, Myanmar?

let us know how it goes. Best of luck to you!

Try the Union Bar & Grill on Strand Road in Yangon. They have a big screen TV at the bar. Stay away from the Burmese Ball-Buckler (rum, vodka, Rumplemintz and Southern Comfort). Peyton Manning's passes flutter in the wind longer than the time it will take you to pass out.

Now isn't this much better and infinitely more interesting use of our time than watching BSPN pre-pre- pre game coverage of Peyton Manniing's toilet rituals.

For sure Ken.

But then I haven't watched ESPN or the NFLN much since Defamegate started last year.

I don't think that is what Shmessy meant TJ. We need to know the story behind the story. What brought a Pats fan to SE Asia for all these years. How do maintain your fandom. You know, the good stuff.

I wouldn't press him too hard, Ken. Odds are at least a couple illicit international opiate merchants are Patriots fans.

Over there you get meth cooking tips and a how-to on calf birthing.

James Bond would have never made a desperate plea.

I don't know anything about internet connectivity in Myanmar, but it's probably spotty at best outside Rangoon. I'd have called the Embassy, but it's getting a little late for that now. There can't be many Americans in Myanmar and you might even have scored an invitation to watch the game with the night watch (our embassies have incredible communications capabilities), if you're in country on business that is of value or interest to the US. If you're just there as a tourist, not so much.

Hey TigerJohn - sorry we didn't meet up in Vientiane for the game last time. Yeah, Myanmar's internet sucks big time, I have friends there but none of them are NFL fans so can't assist. I'm supposed to have been back in Laos myself now, but made sure to delay the flight until Monday night instead.

I'm doing that right now......

OTOH you can just stream the dulcid tones of Zo and Souci(98.5 the Score), I could do the "back in the day thing" when radio was often the only option, but that is little comfort.. good radio announcers can make the game come to life.
