DTV or Cable?

OK, so Time Warner sucks---having to watch the Miami game on a laptop was the final straw for me.

So, I price DirecTV based on their $29 till 2011 campaign. First off I have more than one HDTV which means having to purchase additional HD/DVR boxes. Secondly I looked at the 24 month billing schedule---after 6 months the service was over $100 (based on paying a lease fee for standard boxes and free premuim channels expiring).

What's the deal? Yey or ney?

I had TW forever. Just moved in with the fiancee and there is no cable there so its DTV.

I miss Cable Modem. I find the responsiveness of the remote for cable a lot better. Having NFL network is not a bad thing. I do like how DTV has the HD and Standard Def versions of the same channels next to each other instead of broken apart.

I've lost signal to DTV in storms, but not all that much. In the past 5 years I've only lost cable a small handful of times. If you use AT&T you can get a discount on home phone and internet bundled with DTV.

Sorry it's wishy washy but thats the battle there. They both work to have their strengths and weaknesses. For me having TV Phone and Internet with the same company was fantastic and I miss that.

      Barnwell - Ranking WR, TE, RB Groups in NFL

      By Icege · Posted

      I really appreciate Bill explaining his methodology here because that gives interested parties a chance to try and recreate the results themselves. I believe that it's safe to assume that despite emphasis being placed on WRs that Chuba Hubbard is one of the Panthers' top-5 weapons. Considering targets, yardage, receptions, etc... Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette are also on the list. Jalen Coker's success might have snuck him in there as well. I can't draw a conclusion on who #5 is though. I've narrowed it down to Diontae Johnson, David Moore, Ja'Tavion Sanders, and possibly Rico Dowdle if they're taking into account his production for the Cowboys in 2024.

      Unfortunately business is business especially when there are large sums of money on the table. Goes the same for player and ownership. Does not make it right either way.  Why would he not want to play for the niners? Closer to home with a team that has a chance of delivering a SB trophy.

      Orlov Complaining About Time W/Hurricanes

      I don’t know if it’s him bad mouthing his former situation in public or my pettiness but either way I’m not a fan. Dude was on playoff teams getting paid millions to entertain. I’m not better that because and I am better than that. You don’t bad mouth your former employer in public. Esp after getting over paid and two, poor little Russian baby didn’t get the playing spot he wanted. Rod had him exactly where is was supposed to be.  He had a mean lip check and did defend our players. Specifically the devils game around Christmas where is our Haula on his ass. Cool. Thank you. But don’t talk poo about us. Because it make you look like Haula.    “need to get as far away as possible”. fug off. Didn’t see Burnsy bad mouthing and his play dropped off too.    sorry, but Orlov doesn’t get a pass from me. See you twice a year…
