So you watched 'So You Think You Can Dance' last night on your old analog TV. Watching Game 5 of the NBA Finals on Sunday night or Game 7 of the NHL Finals tonight on TV is going to be difficult without a digital converter box. Analog TV is dead as of today. (AP Images)

As of today, television stations across the nation will be turning off analog broadcasting and switching to digital broadcasting. So if you were planning on catching tonight's Game 7 of the NHL Stanley Cup Final between the Detroit Red Wings and Pittsburgh Penguins, those rabbit ears better be in the trash and your digital converter box should be good to go.

The Bodog Beat understands your passion for televised sports and poker and would hate for you to miss out on any of the action. So if you're one of the 2.8 million Americans STILL without DTV or a digital converter box, rather than tell you that you're an idiot for thinking this was never going to happen or that your're even more clueless for thinking that those stupid rabbit ears were going to keep you going for another 10 good years, here's a link to the TV Converter Box Coupon Program.

    The Digital TV transition is no trouble at all if your cables are correctly polarized. Go to Screen 47 of the DTV Converter Box On-Screen Installation Guide and use the resident GPS to correctly align your antenna for each channel, allowing for local ionospheric conditions, and ARRRGGGHH!

    Good point about the number of online TV sources. That is such a better option, watch it through your TV, or on your lap, whenever you want. Plus, check out some of the problems the DTV switch is having http://www.newsy.com/videos/stepping_into_digital . Things like reception that varies based on terrain, weather, and even car traffic? Then you have all the obsolete TV's to be disposed of as well.
