The movie and TV streaming services are starting to get expensive.
There used to be a time when the alternative to cable was cut and dry, but with the rising costs of streaming and so many platforms to choose from, it’s getting a little pricey!

The Georgia Bulldogs lost to the Alabama Crimson Tide 27-24 on Saturday, Dec. 2, 2023 in a showdown between the best teams in the SEC.
The Dawgs, which saw their 29-game win streak end, pulled up just short in their bid to win a third straight SEC Championship and national title after playing from a 10-point lead for most of the second half.
UGA quarterback Carson Beck had a solid game, finishing with 249 yards passing. He also rushed for two touchdowns from the one yard line.
Georgia’s outstanding tight end Brock Bowers, who had 51 yards receiving, looked to be not 100% since coming back from injury two weeks ago. Ladd McConkey finished the night with 38 yards and seemed to be limping after a first-half collision.
On the other side of the field, Alabama freshman quarterback Jalen Milroe officially put the SEC on notice that he is coming strong in 2024. Tide Head Coach Nick Saban said after the game that the victory took not only Milroe, but the whole squad.
“This is a team. These guys here are what you call a team,” Saban said. “This is a great team. They play together as a team. They overcame adversity. They showed today and proved that they can win against anybody.”
The loss means that Georgia may lose out on a chance to make it to the College Football Playoff, which Head Coach Kirby Smart does not agree with.
“You’re going to tell me, someone is sitting in that committee room and doesn’t think that Georgia team is one of the best four teams, I don’t know if they’re in the right profession,” Smart said after the game.
Final Play
Will Georgia make it to the Big Dance? The Dawgs’ strength of schedule is impeccable. We will have to wait and see.

Opening statements continued on the second day of the racketeering trial against Atlanta rapper Young Thug. Court proceedings began Monday, Nov. 27, 2023 in a packed Fulton County, Georgia, courtroom.
Fulton prosecutors, led by Fani Willis, allege that Young Thug, aka Jeffrey Williams, was the self-proclaimed leader of the YSL (Young Slime Life) criminal enterprise affiliated with the Bloods street gang.
On the other hand, the defendant claims that YSL — which stands for Young Stoner Life — was little more than a homegrown record label.
YSL Trial: Day 2
On day two, Williams’ attorneys did their best to turn the narrative that Young Thug’s lyrics described crimes on its head. And one point, Attorney Brian Steel said, “
“Drive-by shootings. These are common themes. This is, you will learn, this is studio gangsters. They are in the studio. They are creating music for us to listen to,” said Steel.
About a year ago, former YSL label mate Gunna pleaded guilty to RICO charges, which he claims don’t affect Young Thug’s case one way or the other.
YSL Trial: Day 1
In her opening statements, Fulton Chief Deputy DA Adriane Love opened by prepping jurors about what they will hear about Williams.
“What you will not hear any evidence of is that the defendants were not involved in a criminal street gang,” she said.
She went on to paint Williams as “King Slime,” someone who turned the community into a haven of crime.
“They created a crater in the middle of Fulton County’s Cleveland Avenue community that sucked in the youth, the innocence and even the lives of some of its youngest members,” she said.
The trial’s first day has been marked by many testy exchanges between the judge and the state and defense, including one in which all Powerpoint presentations were denied.
The judge also introduced his dog to the trial, saying to ignore it during proceedings.
Williams’ attorneys have said that the rapper is innocent on all counts.

Video shared on social media shows passengers hurriedly going to the exits and another flier telling them, “He put something on the plane … He put something on the plane and jumped out the window.”
Additional footage showed a man attempting to get into an airport worker vehicle before being subdued by two employees.
According to the Jefferson Parish Sheriff’s Office, the passenger got out of the plane, which was still at the gate at Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport about 7:40 p.m. and climbed onto the wing. He was “incoherent” and taken to a nearby hospital to be checked out.
When he jumped to the ground, where he was quickly subdued until law enforcement, the sheriff’s office said in a statement.

The Atlanta Falcons beat the New Orleans Saints, 24-15 on Sunday, November 25, 2023 at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in downtown Atlanta. It was the return of Falcons quarterback Desmond Ridder, who had missed the previous two games due to injury and the coach’s decision.
Ridder looked sharp and relaxed in his most confident win of his NFL career. That bodes well for the Falcons as they get into the teeth of their 2023 schedule.
Here are three things we learned about Sunday’s victory.
Falcons Won Big at the Line of Scrimmage
“They did a good job of blocking us up front,” said Saints coach Dennis Allen. “We will look at schematically what we can do to be better there. That was a big factor, them winning the line of scrimmage.”
Not only did the Falcons’ offensive and defensive lines rule the day, but the Falcons safety Jessie Bates came up with a pick six that ushered in the scoring for Atlanta. Here’s how it all went down, courtesy of former NFL quarterback turned analyst RGIII.
Bijan Robinson Is a Star
The Saints had no answer for the Falcons rushing attack, led by rookie Bijan Robinson, who ran for 91 yards and a touchdown to finish with 123 total yards. He also caught a touchdown.
The Falcons (5-6) ran for 228 yards between rushes from Robinson, Tyler Allgeier, Cordarrelle Patterson and Ridder.
Behind the running game, the Falcons were able to ice the game and play keep away from the Saints in the closing minutes of the game.
“That was encouraging,” said Falcons coach Arthur Smith. “That’s where we need to be to close out game.”
Desmond Ridder Shows Confidence
Although he threw two interceptions, both of Saints safety Tyrann Mathieu, Ridder and the Falcons overcame those turnovers to get the win.
“What you like about him is the way he came back,” Coach Smith said of Ridder fighting through his struggles. “He doesn’t flinch. He’s resilient and we’ll keep working.”
“However it came, good, bad or ugly, go out and get a win,” quarterback Ridder said after the game.
Final Play
The Falcons now are in a tie with the Saints for first-place in the NFC South. Should the playoffs start today, the Falcons would get the nod due to their head-to-head battle with New Orleans and their undefeated division record (4-0).
