  1. A bad high ankle sprain would be worse than a fracture IMO.
  2. Had to know things couldn't go so good for long...
  3. this thread is fantastic but has anyone found the single game prices yet?
  4. Yep, multiple HD streams going at once in our house is an issue. Also, 4K and its successor are coming soon. Data caps are being implemented in a lot of areas. There's no free lunches in media consumption. Eventually, costs are going to rise a good bit on streaming if everyone transitions over to that.
  5. We'll see if anyone can make that work. Ultimately, it's probably going to come down to the sports leagues rights fees getting renegotiated to make anything like that work. I still believe the big losers in all of the cord cutting deal is going to be sports fans. If we want our content, we're gonna have to start paying more per channel for it. The people that don't watch sports are not going to be subsidizing it anymore.
  6. The problem is that there's like 10-12 favorite channels I really watch, but to get all of them in one package, I have to pay like $130 a month. It's just not worth it. I think if cable/satellite is going to survive long term, they'll eventually need to go a la carte. I don't think a la carte is a good situation for sports fans. Sports channels are by far the most expensive channels for cable/sat companies. If it goes a la carte, the non sports watchers will have a heck of a deal but the espns, nfl networks, mlb networks and RSNs will be $15-$30 each. I really don't understand everyone's desire to stream everything. I love streaming when I'm out of the house, but it's a far inferior product to cable in house IMO. The upgraded bandwidth it will take if the cord cutting continues will cost just as much as a bundled cable package. I understand the movement to curb cable prices, but I would be careful what you wish for.
  7. After a crappy road trip, that was a needed 4 game sweep.
  8. If we're gonna have replay, why in the world do we have to suffer from terrible camera angles? There should be cameras positioned where you can see all 4 sides of the bases.
  9. I think just the riser part is painted green so the ball is able to be seen easier.
