    The Big One! Barcelona - Real Madrid: Sa, 4/1 @ 3pm ET

    there's an article on espn soccernet about the "dive" that Van Bommel took is apparently causing quite a stir in Spain. Unfortunately we never got a good replay on Rush/Worldsport. I'd like to see the replay... Anyway, still a great game, if Roberto Carlos just keeps quiet and only gets the...

    LIVE FUTBOL: Getafe vs. Deportivo 3/18 @ noon EST

    This must not have shown up on the schedule because my DVR did not record it. This is Rush-HD btw, don't have Worldsport yet. Did this game actually air on Rush?

    I Really Enjoy Watching the VOOM Kung Fu Channel

    Fu and Monsters are my favorite channels. I like the majority of the stuff I've seen on Fu. I agree the Jet Li movies have not been very good with horrible dubbing, but all of the Chow Yun Fat movies have been subbed, as well as the one Stephen Chow movie (King of Beggars which is mediocre...

    We Really Had It Great With Voom!!

    not if I have anything to do with it ;) I work for Cox cable, cable has some good stuff coming down the pipe I just hope we can move faster than we traditionally do... I'm in an Adelphia area (just moved from Comcast area) so I'm using Dish for now, had Voom for the HD that Comcast...

    Any Chance Comcast Cable Will Add Voom 21?

    I watched a Barcelona vs Malaga (I think) on GolTV on Comcast, geez I could barely see what the hell was going on, I really hope Voom21 gets added one day but nothing so far sounds very encouraging besides the one cable company, United something or other? that mentioned they might...

    New Comcast commercial, Voom included

    I wonder if by some huge coincidence it was added during my install, but I could've sworn when i first turned it on I didn't have it, but then I looked about 20 minutes later when my box had been completely activated - unlocking the premium channels, I noticed it was there.

    Direct TV Salesman at Best Buy Laments VOOM leaving

    A lot of folks love/hate Bose, but my goodness, I just can't stand the sound. I agree with the folks who blast it, for a lot less money I can get a more dynamic sound (or at least a sound that I prefer).

    New Comcast commercial, Voom included

    Update: Got Comcast installed on Saturday morning, happened to be watching Real Madrid vs Valencia (man, I'm going to miss this, KungFu, and Monsters) and the guy asks, "What is this??". He was from Africa and seemed to be a big soccer fan so stood there watching for almost 5 minutes before we...

    New Comcast commercial, Voom included

    I had the digital cable with HD before Voom, while it was ok, at the time it did not have WB or ABC in HD, which drove me nuts for Monday night football, and my wife nuts for her WB shows. I didn't have any premiums so my HD channel number was about 5. It's been almost a year since I've had...

    Can VERIZON be our knight in shinning armour??

    these new higher speeds are kinda funny. The average user only needs about 128 symmetrical or so with tweaked settings for webpage viewing, and a temporary large bandwidth and large burst settings for downloads. I think variable bandwidth rates is really the best way for cable or any of these...

    New Comcast commercial, Voom included

    You could run both TVs from one box, but depending where the box is, you'd need an RF remote to be able to change the channels, say if you were in your bedroom and the box is downstairs, and you would be changing the channels on both TVs. Plus you'd need a way to run the cable from the box to...

    New Comcast commercial, Voom included

    They still feed the analog portion without the digital box, so you should be able to get the analog feed (obviously less channels) if you don't feel like using a box. This is generally what I do for all my "secondary" TVs, I usually give the main HD TV the best feed, with an SD box for my...
