Re: Ch 8/Nexstar About to Get Bombarded with Callers
Spectrum is right to drop Disney. Should Spectrum be believed, they were agreeing to the premium increase in exchange for free subscriber access to the Disney+/hulu/espn+ ad supported bundle. Of course Disney only wanted to offer Spectrum subscribers a discount. DirecTV has shrunk from the expanded ...

Re: Detroit Tigers Announcers Voted Worst In MLB
Off topic, but I came across this article about the worst pitcher in MLB history... who played for Detroit in 1912. The story was rarely told in mainstream media as Detroit is a big union town, known more to baseball aficionados. The player was a replacement for a striker. https://www ...

Re: Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s presidential campaign
Well I don't believe RFK is an antisemite. But I do believe antisemitism is not a disqualifier for many Democrat voters. I don't believe many of his backers think he could beat Biden, but I do think some of them fear a last minute Harris replacement. She couldn't giggle her way out a a Russian ...

Re: Detroit Tigers Announcers Voted Worst In MLB
The app, which does leave much to be desired, is $20 a month. That's $1 a game! Bad baseball and hockey, yup. And atrocious basketball too! I don't watch even half the games, but that is how TV works. I have MAX and before the merger there was way to much to keep up with. I pay for shows I don't ...

Must See 5G TV
Ok I never knew people watch live football at a football game! But I certainly see people listening to hockey play-by-play with ear pieces. As crowded as it gets probably a third of goals scored I see the fans reactions to know and have to wait for the replay. Perhaps in the nosebleed NFL seats ...

Re: City of Grand Haven evicts WGHN-FM from tower due to lease violations
It's good that WGHN is repaying all the money taxpayers inadvertently subsidized for its electricity bill over umpteen years. If the outright sale of WMPA ever closes, perhaps those proceeds are already spoken for? Otherwise, seems to me the city could've incorporated a springing payment balloon ...

Re: Sinclair’s Sports Channels Prepare Bankruptcy, Putting Team Payments at Risk
I believe Diamond is keeping all the teams that grant it streaming rights such as Detroit's three. They can get paid in market by cable and app streamers, and out of market by ESPN streaming. I hold to the view as many others, RSN is necessary for the NBA, NHL & MLB. MLB is covering the lions share ...

Re: Dave Ramsey and Mr Bean are right, keep driving your current car as long as can...
I avoid Dave Ramsey, Suzie Orman and the like. I check my oil weekly, add oil to make sure it is on full if any has burned off or leaked out, and change my full synthetic oil every three months or 3k miles. Why waste money paying to change my oil too often? Project Farm on youtube has a great video ...

Re: Jimmy Kimmel is a democrat political hack
Watch Jimmy Kimmel clips from 'The Man Show' and then several years later he was quivering about the Republican judge in Alabama running for Jeff Session's seat. I do not know if the Judge was a sex pervert in the 80's or if he was on some mall security watch list... But when things go unclaimed for ...

It is illegal for police unions to go on strike? I assume this is a federal law.

Re: Republicans are to blame for the deficit
Historically deficits came down under every President since Reagan, then they ballooned under Reagan and haven't stopped. But there are numerous factors such as world trade decimating so many American industries, finally ending the gold standard in the 70's, Americans living longer and less healthy ...

Bally is advertising $5 off a month for new subscribers through 3/6 for 12 months. Yes they will go bankrupt, but they will continue on and on and on and become a never ending punch line for some. Either listen on the radio or pay up. Bally will stay in the most premium cable packages because of ...
