    NCAA Bans Indian Mascots From Postseason

    projectorsrule pardon the language, but what your saying is that i shouldn't be offended if you were to call me a nigger? NOT SAYING THAT YOU WOULD! What i'm saying is that is that your point dictates to ME that i SHOULDN'T be offended, and that's ludicrous.

    NCAA Bans Indian Mascots From Postseason

    I don't hava a problem with actual names of Native American Tribes like the Seminoles. What I do have a problem with is names like the "Redskins" . Also, all of you folks who are are complaining about political correctness are typical of the way most people think, wrongly I might add. It...

    Competition Heating Up!

    of note... extra rooms are $4.00 each. The other tv is in the BR, which we mostly use for morning news and such, so I'll just split off, and run the cable straight into the TV. Also, I'm not unhappy at all with Dish Network, but that deal is just too good to turn down. I currently have...

    What about us Charter Members!

    forget a lawsuit You have no case. When companies go out of business, it's just tough luck. It may not be best for the consumer, but we live in a market economy and the market dictated that voom, as a satellite provider, just didn't cut it. Cablevision lost hundreds of millions of dollars...

    Schematic for use of DP34 Switch?

    Does anyone have a schematic for hooking up the DP34? I'm thinking of adding the second 61.5 dish myself. Any help/suggestions would be appreciated. I presently have an 811 box, and a 311.

    Help - Program guide

    Is is just me, or does the program guide have to manually download every couple of days? Is there some setting that i'm missing to allow it to update itself? It's really annoying to go to view the guide and have to wait a minute for it to download. That's my biggest pet peeve with Dish Network...

    BTW, people going to E*

    Also, the 811 also allows you to recieve your analog OTA feeds as well. This comes in handy if you don't want the second dish and you can get good reception. There is a PBS station in my area that does not yet broadcast digitally, and would be on the second satellite (which I didn't want). Since...

    I Got Out 7-Months Ago

    Smart Move! Bill: Smart move getting out when you did. JMD: Is that a picture of Bush? An American Patriot? Why was he too SCARED to go to Vietnam? He's what you call a Chicken Hawk. (just my opinion)
