Simple solution.. go buy a digital antenna.. I haven't paid for cable or satellite in over a year don't miss it a bit.. i have a digital antenna than can pick up to 60 miles away, looks damn crisp.. and a roku with netflix and hulu subscriptions.. and i'm a prime member.. saves me like 125 a month.. helps if you know someone with cable or sat subscription, then you can use their credentials to get the ESPN channel on roku as well.. that gives you saturday college games and MNF

I don't have Dish Network but it would be funny if DirecTV actually shut me off considering I've been threatening to cancel with them for like ten years to get a discount on Sunday Ticket. 

Actually that would kind of suck ass. 

Will you call for me? I despise talking on the phone more than the Patriots

Get an OTA antenna and you will get ABC, NBC, and CBS for free in HD.  That will cover you for about 95 % of the games we play.

I did that this season. I would suggest it. Picture is actually better than what I ever had with Cable or Satellite. I just use my parents cable login information for Watch ESPN and I can watch MNF. Saving me a ton of money every month not having to pay some BS high charge just becuase there is no competition for cable or internet out there. When Google Fiber hits Charlotte I'm dropping windstream faster than a pass to Corey Brown.

I've got the same setup as well. Have you looked into Sling? I've been using it for 3 months now, and I highly recommend it. It's $20/month, and you get cable channels like ESPN, ESPN2, TBS, TNT, and CNN that stream live via your roku.

    • It is all confusing and layered. SB is the cash you get very soon within weeks or in simple terms, its what you get to sign the paper work. Players and agents can agree on contract but what to "wait" to sign......teams don't like that cause you can "Carlos Boozer" yourself. In order to get that ink dry, while keeping the contract the same, portion it as a bonus to "sign" and get the funds with ________ .   * But Ive seen worded contracts that split the SB or a 20% to a later date. The beans counters can fill in the details about why certain dates are better and save the team money.. Theres tricks to the trade and accounting is full of them.    Ugh another big layer, is SB can be used to manipulate cap and players. Ill try to give a example that makes enough sense. Believe it or not having a owner like Tepper is a cheat code for this. He has cash in hand, where as Mark Davis had problem making pay roll and had to move the team to Vegas....... Tepper can give you 100,000,000 SB right now and the team can spread out the cap hit. Another owner doesn't have or want to give the player 100,000,000 in cash, but offered the same guaranteed contract in roster bonuses fully guaranteed over the next few years........ Which one do you want??? Everyone wants the money now, not before another inflation waves hits in 2 years. So it does 'pay" to have a owner like tepper that's able to have real cash on hand, while it also works GREAT for cap help. Heres a good video, if you can stand coked up pat and mask look-a-like AJ    
    • I don't know. CMC is like others and may have lip serviced that line of " I had no plan or wanted to leave Carolina" I think he even said he bought a house too and wanted this to be home.   Here's what I heard- In a way Panthers org gave him a test and he didn't "fight" back. They approached CMC and told him they wanted to put him on IR since the "season" was over or out of playoff reach. CMC didn't fight it one lick and agreed. They secretly wanted him to kept playing or want to, but there was no kickback. I honestly don't know if its real or not, 5th hand information type deal doing on. Yes he had bruises and pains, but was able to play...... but went along with Panthers staff. Odd to be playing games with star players, but whatever....   Plus the staff doctors found out about his tendinitis and there was nothing to fix it. Even with him missing time, it was the best move to trade him before he got inflamed constantly.    Lastly, its mostly time a combo of stuff, Fitterererere did not sign him to be the highest paid RB. That was classic Marty "give me a" herniay doing. GMs have different values on roster spots and rumor was Fitterererer was one that didn't want to pay RBs. For all his faults, he's right about that......
