  1. That shit will get you better pic and sound than any streaming/cable service. It's very noticeable if you switch back and forth.
  2. Those bastards will do everything they can to retain the more expensive cable customers, but he may get a discount that lasts for a couple months or so. The way I'd do it is get streaming going first then unhook and return everything but the modem/WiFi router to the nearest Spectrum store. That's what I did about 5 years ago and then ditched Spectrum completely when I tried T-Mobile 5G gateway and discovered it works fine to cover the whole house where I live. So now it's $50 per month for 5G WiFi plus whatever ungodly price Hulu+ live TV is these days...but that wasn't my choice for streaming. Having said that, Hulu+ has everything you'd get on cable plus local channels, and also access to Hulu's TV and movie catalog. (Leans heavily to programming that appeals to women, but still something for everyone)
  3. All streaming services are no contract (afaik) but for that many TV's you'll need a service that allows for the number of streams you need, and each TV will need a device such as Roku, Fire stick, Apple TV etc. I have a total of 4 TV's (including one in the back yard) and made it simple and consistent by using Roku devices on all of them, even the newest one which has "smart TV" features. If the TV's are coming with you to a new place the only thing you'll need to do is set all of them up and log in to your WiFi once, should be good to go. There are tons of resources online comparing and reviewing streaming services and even step by step how to set up whichever one you choose. It's not rocket surgery, even my remaining grandparents moved to streaming a couple years ago with little or no issues.
  4. There is a small benefit to Washington mudholing Oregon I think, especially since they've been ranked just above us all season. In reality the FSU/Louisville game is the one that matters most followed by Georgia/Bama.
  5. It's pretty simple in my mind. An Oregon win here doesn't help us at all. The committee is human and they will put a one loss last ever Pac12 champion over a one loss Big12 champion because the Big12 lives on and will have more chances in the future. I could be wrong, but that's the way I see it...especially with Oregon being ranked over us and Bama all season long.
  6. Because most people don't know the difference. I used to have a Malamute..awesome dogs, but not for everyone. (And not suitable for Texas summers)
  7. I hope Washington makes the committee look ridiculous for deeming the ducks the best one loss team in the country.
  8. Zebra has stone hands lol
  9. I think so too, but Penix and his receivers could give our secondary all they can handle.
  10. Too close to our stormtrooper look with a worse primary color. So yeah, I hate it.
  11. It's about damn time NM has a team that puts up some resistance.
  12. Seems most people think Oregon runs away with this one, but I think discounting big Penix energy is a mistake. In any case, a ducks win doesn't help us at all. Better than Lassie?
  13. Poor frat-tards these days can't get away with anything...always on camera. I'm betting none of them were intelligent enough to mask up or cover license plates.
  14. Weird seeing a school in a major P5 conference go full HBCU with the band, but I like it.
  15. I don't know what the holdup there is, but that's only a matter of time as well.
  16. Meh, I always said once Jokelahoma gives in it's only a matter of time before Texas follows suit. Too much tax revenue left on the table
  17. This among other reasons is why I decided a small watch party would be better in spite of living about 25 mins (on a good day) from Jerryworld.
  18. Certified maybe, Still would And then I'd use her to identify any reptilians that may be among us.
  19. I assume massive quantities of alcohol and possibly other substances were part of this stellar decision making.
  20. Don't ever try explaining why "50% off" sales simply means the retailer is still making a profit by increased sales, and that 50% is an arbitrary number based on an inflated normal price. Also don't mention how you saved 100% by sitting your ass at home watching football on black Friday. If you're lucky you only get a blank stare.
  21. Murphy's law demands that happens Hopefully laws are broken in this game.
  22. Even though the SEC is worlds better than the Big12, aggy has to remind me how I wish we had gone Pac and kept that thing together. Smh
  23. All streaming looks potato compared to over the air networks, and even 4k streamed movies don't look or sound as good as the same thing on Blu-ray. I tested this with 2001 A Space Odyssey..one of my small collection of once a year movies. It's kind of like when digital photography came on to the scene it wasn't nearly as good as the old 35mm camera, and some people swear old Japanese stereo systems from the 80's sound better than anything produced today.
  24. From Panther city deep into my second cup of coffee (cutting back this year) and trying to wrap up the work week before lunch time.. TEXAS!!!
  25. The problem I've found (my parents included) is many people either forget what the "input/source" button on their TV remote does, or simply don't want to bother pushing anything other than on/off, volume and channel up/down for fear of messing everything up for hours and hours [emoji28]
