It's all their fault, cause they're greedy executives. We're just the innocent middlemen, who are also overcharging all you poor bastards.

F em both....

I had a feeling you were only asking to set this whole thing up. You knew I would say Lost, so you could come back and say this.

Your fucking mind-games wont work on me, Pest.

I don't give a shit about ABC or ESPN. I don't need either one. This doesn't affect me but I'm already seriously considering dumping cable all together. I can already watch all of my favorite shows online for free. Someone remind me why I'm paying $100 a month to see it on a big screen tv?

I don't think so. They do have college football and other sports though. That would be a big loss for the people who still live in the 20th century without cable.

At least that's why I do it.

I hate watching shit on my PC or laptop.

What if you had a laptop with an HDMI output? If I forget to DVR something, that's exactly how we do it.

You realize you can hook up your PC to your big ass TV, right?

can't talk my wife in to doing this one. She says it would be embarrassing when people came over. I told her we can still watch the same stuff and the extra $120/month in my pocket can help me get over any embarrassment I won't fee.
