He's a fraud. I've been in a bar/restaurant with WW and he sat there meekly never saying a word. TS.

Same. Although we’d spoken in passing before, that was easily a top 3 GYERO meet letdown.

Had you two not had luxury mountain climbing in common, I’m not sure he’d have said a word.
 
- “Squid Game” on Netflix is pretty damn good. Between that and “Parasite,” it seems like the South Koreans are putting out the best (most relatable to US audience) foreign language content nowadays. The Japanese should be right there with them, but their trends and norms are just too weird.

- I’ve been nearly forcing my kids to play a board game when they get home from school to fend off inane iPad time. “Chutes and Ladders: 70’s Edition” arrived today and I got to explain what a “dunce cap” is. There are some hard truths and life lessons to be found in 70’s Edition board games. You just can’t teach this stuff with Kanoodle.

- What is the GYERO Gourmand Hive Mind’s recommendation for a combo salt and pepper grinder? We keep going with OXO’s until they break when I shear off the top of the threaded rod that holds the salt vessel on top by accidentally using my dad strength to force it open. (The salt corrodes it.)

- My buddy co-owns a couple of bars and his biggest problem is boomers. He just deals with them by being bitingly honest about how terrible they’re being in hopes of them not returning. I think Matt would enjoy swapping war stories, and his wings!
 
Scott county
I don't care when we play Louisville all I care about is that we beat the ever loving shit out of them.
You sound like my Mom and that’s a TOTAL compliment regarding UL. She absolutely LOATHES UL to the point she doesn’t want to play them. She doesn’t feel like they even deserve to be on the same field/court with us. They’re a nobody, not even a has been, just a nobody since the beginning of time. I like both your vibes on this subject.

Scott County…Stopped at two gas stations otw home after my cardio session at the gym tonight, no beer. Wtf? I thought the dry thing was done here. Was informed that it isn’t dry, just the closest two gas stations to the house don’t sell beer, you know the ones RIGHT next to the highway exit. Great business move. 🙄
 
YouTubeTVers… following the NBCUniversal nonsense? Sounds like all the NBC-related channels could be gone this weekend. NBCU is trying to strongarm YT into bundling its BS Peacock service with it, which would raise YT subscribers’ monthly fees. YT is indicating it won’t do that. Kinda getting tired of this drama. The greed is out of control.

I’m in that group and have noticed the scroll they have going now…so, just bail and go to Hulu? Drive to a Louisville flea market and get Louisville Media Box?

Maybe Richie had it right all along and I should crawl in shame back to Spectrum.

It's not just NBC.

It's:
NBC
CNBC
MSNBC
USA Network
Bravo
E!
Oxygen
SyFy

Cable is pretty dope.


Of course, you need to have a great career to justify the outrageous $150 I pay that includes Cable, internet, AND cellphone.

Main downside is that you don’t get to brag about your super cool cord-free setups & marginal savings.

Everything and I mean everything that can be repackaged and sold as a recurring fee will be repackaged and sold as a recurring fee. Now that Hulu and YT have their users comfortable on the platform, they'll slowly jack up prices just like the cable companies have done. It's almost like it's a business model or something.
 
I’m probably paying the same now as I did before I got rid of cable but I got some free 4K Apple TVs out of it and am too lazy to go back so here I am.

Streaming the Bengals in the backyard with some collides and the Solo tonight shew wee nice way to kick off the weekend
 
-lasso is struggling through season 2. 1 was very good...hope it's a sophomore slump, whatevs.

-morning temps are perfect, "real feel" of 83 in the afternoon is irritating, always have a couple of shedded jackets/over shirts living in my truck/office this time of year. Also messes with sinuses.

-late, but last word of frat/football silliness: college aged males are stupid and do stupid stuff. Learn something and move on.

-hulu live + Netflix +apple tv +prime. No idea what it costs. My wife handles minor household expenses.
 
ITS EASY. WHEN YOU GET A TEXT THAT THE 3:30 GAME ON CBS BETWEEN BAMA AND OLE MISS IS NOW A ONE TOUCHDOWN GAME GET OUT OF ESPN+ APP, BOOST YOUR ROKUS SIGNAL, SWITCH TO CBS PREMIUM AND WAIT FOR THAT GAME TO COME ON. ITS SO COOL THAT IM CABLE FREE DESPITE THE FACT THAT I CANT PAUSE THE GAME OR RECORD GAMES ON DVR. ALSO, THERE’S A 90 SECOND DELAY WHEN YOU STREAM
SO STAY OFF TWITTER AND ASK ALL OF YOUR FRIENDS TO NOT SEND TEXT MESSAGES WITH SPOILERS.

***I pay 115.00 per month for AT&T Uverse & high speed AT&T Fiber plus I receive free HBO MAX and can stream dozens of channels on any device because of cable subscription.***

People who brag about saving on cable or by cutting out Starbucks are usually broke anyway.

Yep, have Spectrum and all the sports, movie channels + internet, wifi. But, want to watch your 8th favorite game of the weekend, switch over to ESPN+ or Peacock or whatever. This stuff adds up, you say no thanks, and you're back to basic cable.
 
- Still haven't received my Homefield order from back on the 5th. Finally got a response last night after several inquiries that it would be shipping "soon" :mad:

A clear sign you're a Mickey Mouse operation when it takes a month to ship two t-shirts at the start of football season.

- Arguing for cable is like defending cassette tapes in 1995.

And there are plenty of networks that spat with cable carriers and temporarily went dark over the years.

SPOILER: they always get resolved.

And nothing more convenient than watching anything and everything via your iPhone, wherever you are.

- Woke up to an extry $60 in my venmo from old SAECATFAN. Was confused until he reminded me of the weekly pick 'em payouts :cool:

Definitely takes an already fun weekly challenge up a notch. You jokers should have joined.

- Got a bad feeling about Saturday night. Florida is a bad matchup. Mobile QB, impressive ground game. Defense that once they got their legs under them held the Tide to 10 points in the second half and put a lid on their rushing attack.

They only got to Young twice so if our line can hold up and Levis can play within himself, may be able to keep it close and hope we catch a few breaks.
 
Uhh, this exact same thing has happened to countless other providers Direct TV, Spectrum, etc the last few years during negotiations. Fox, CBS and now NBC. They all run ads blaming each other and it'll go dark for like 2 days and then back.

If you guys want to keep living in 1984, have at it.
 
I hardly can tell the difference between having Youtubetv and Uverse cable I had before it other than not having a lot of channels I never watched. What I can tell the difference is I'm not paying equipment fees they always required.
 
I wouldn't work in Florida for any amount. We're in Indiana and Ohio as well.

I know you're not interested in FL. I was curious how far out your coverage is now.

I do have a plumber buddy in Atlanta that I'm sure would be interested in a simpler life if it meant he could go hunting in KY on a regular basis. He is quite literally working himself to death.
