As a football fan, I can't begin to imagine what it would be like to have a casino-sports betting-parlor-like setup in my living room. Alas, it seems you can't choose which channels are displayed, and by the looks of the screenshot, unless you're in constant need of a daily dose of finance and stock reports, you'll be disappointed.TV Squad Hot Topics
