Another reason I hate TWC (Panthers related)...

So I'm not going to be at home for the start of the game Saturday, and I went last night to set the DVR. Panther TV in my area is ABC WTVD 11. I flip to Saturday at 7 PM and it shows Jeapordy.

As it turns out, TWC doesn't update the listing for some reason. They have the Panthers Wofford Camp Report or some such show as that an hour or two before, but nada for the game either online or their DVR.

I guess I'm going to have to just set the DVR to record Jeopardy and have it extend like 3 hours, lol.

TWC sucks so hard.

This is just a heads up to anyone in a similar situation.

The fact they are still bickering with NFL Network because they want to overcharge for it, going on 4-5+ years now, is enough to know TWC sucks. Plus apparently this year NFL stunday ticket is free on DirecTV? Might be time for a change.

TWC does suck but the free sunday ticket will be auto charged on your bill next year for full price (400-600)even if you did not want it. You have to see the bill with the fine print and call to cancel..

DTV loves to hit you up for charges and rarely will work with you on them either.

I went and got TWC again for some unknown reason and its not bad..i do have the digital tier HD-DVR 3 additional boxes with the same programming, HBO and Turbo internet for 104.00 with tax so its not too bad. Prices are locked for 2 years and no contract(so this deal can be had by anyone!).

Hint just do not call...you have to go to the local billing center and ask to speak with a retention specialist...boom! The call center employees have numbers to meet so if they are too low(aka help you out)they get low bonuses and fired.

My biggest gripe outside of NFL network is that my cable boxes do not seem to support HDMI cables so my screen pops...goes blue...no signal..and it is the boxes as I swapped out cables and used other devices on my TV that all work flawlessly. The boxes are all new and all of them do it...component cables it is then.. Awful.

No NFL- HDMI support is spotty- I know my bill will magically be wrong.. So.a dish is in my near future but Dish does not have AMC/IFC which is a huge problem too.

DTV is not my fave so im waiting this one out.

really this is one of my favorite IRL cheat codes and it seems to not matter which cable company you're dealing with. i paid super low intro rates when i was with charter for 4 years this way.

I don't have this problem. Two different boxes on upstairs and downstairs tvs, and both use HDMI.

The game is listed here in CLT on TWC on channel WCCB. You may be outside of what they consider a truly local market and the only way to watch it is on the NFL Network.

The NFL network has some exemptions in place for showing it locally if it is sold out.

IIRC

      Maxx Crosby is not happy

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      Bingo. The dude is a baller no doubt and I'd love to have him in a vacuum but like you said he's gonna fetch a haul so the only teams it really makes sense for are teams with an overall good roster who they feel an edge rusher like Crosby would out them over the top in terms of competing for SBs. I'd be looking st teams like the Pats, Bucs, Ravens, Seahawks, etc. It wouldn't be shocking to see him moved. He may be more valuable to a rebuilding team in the form of the draft assets he'd fetch than he is on the field. He should still have several more good years in the tank at 28 but by the time the Raiders can reasonably expect to rebuild he's gonna be on the decline.

      Crosby will garner a haul in a trade. I would be reluctant to make that trade because of the following: 1. Our overall roster is awful. We cannot afford to be trading away valuable draft capital. 2. He isn't the best fit(IMO) for the scheme that Evero runs.  I love the player but it would really need to be at a reasonable deal and I think he is likely to garner an unreasonable price if he gets traded.

      BREAKING NEWS: Trevin Wallace out for the year

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      In terms of need, EDGE is currently #1. Our pass rush is near league worst levels. However, I don't subscribe to "need" based drafting. BPA all day.  We do need to dramatically upgrade over Scourton, Jones, Wonnum and Umanmielen. That is likely in the running for the NFL's worst two deep. Not saying all those players are bad, but I am saying 100% of those players are 2nd or 3rd stringers.
