Because it ain't worth $1200.00 f*cking dollars a year is what I am going to tell them (after the national championship game tonight.) For real, other than the Razorback games and a few other selected games, I won't miss satellite tv a bit. I can always find somewhere to watch any game I really want to, I can get 20 or so free over air network (major and minor) channels with my digital antenna, have Netflix and can get other internet programming if I desire...


We're actually switching to direct for a year. The promo is pretty good at $25 for one year and $50 the next year for a plan that costs $90+ with Dish. My final straw was when my box died and they charged to replace it and wouldn't upgrade to the hopper (sans $200) service. I know too many people that got those for free. And we've added two TVs and Dish wouldn't give Joeys to them but wanted to charge a few hundred to run cables since they wouldn't give us a hopper.

I'm almost ready to go straight Roku streaming for everything but it's just not quite there yet. The addition of ESPN might get it there though.

Spinoff:

I'm going to give you a scenario:

I work from home. Not like i dink around and work when things come up and take phone calls, i'm in my office for probably 9+ hours a day solid. I go to the gym after i either get the kids ready and she takes them or after i drop them off.

I get back about 7:55 AM from this, immediately go up to my office and work at 8. This is the schedule every week and my wife knows it. if i can, i come down and clean around lunch time, but i don't spend any time in the house at all.

All this to say, is it my fault she left underwear on the floor and the cable guy saw it? Because she's under the impression that i should have scanned the room and cleaned up. I'm under the impression she knew somebody was coming over and she should clean up after herself.




ETA: DirectTV is 11ty billion times better than dish in everything except for the remote layout. frick dish.
