A Monday Night Football Party
Watch Houston Texan Eric Winston's Not Your Ordinary Sports Show live onCultureMap
It sounds like something of a madcap experiment: An active NFL player deciding to start his own online sports TV network. That's exactly what Houston Texan right tackle Eric Winston is doing though and you can watch the debut show of THEBUS (pronounced Thee-bis) network right here on CultureMap.
Not Your Ordinary Sports Show is meant to be companion viewing to the Monday Night Football games. Something of a cross between Mystery Science Theater 3000, Real Time with Bill Maher and Best Damn Sports Show Period, the show will have Winston and an eclectic mix of Houston guests getting into it as they watch the games.
Astronaut Scott Kelly, former Olympic gold medal speed skater Chad Hedrick and PGA Tour veteran Steve Elkington are the guests for this first show Robert Henslee, the sports director at 610 AM, is the show moderator.
