    L.A. D* Subs Getting Lakers On TWCS Via NBA Broadband?

    I called D* today and told them how disappointed a Los Angeles area Lakers fan I am that they won't be included in my NBA LP for 2013. The CSR (from the Boise ID facility) then offered $79 off the annual renewal price. I'm not happy we don't have the Pac-12 Network, much less TWC's Sportsnet...

    L.A. D* Subs Getting Lakers On TWCS Via NBA Broadband?

    I just received my October bill and D* informed me they're auto renewing my NBA LP 2012-13 option for $179.94. It appears right now that Laker's home games through TWC Sportsnet won't be included in my League Pass subscription. With negotiations ongoing and both sides seemingly not close to any...

    Getting close to baseball season

    I also called D* and used the expression 'Cancel MLB Extra Innings' at the prompt, then was almost immediately talking to a CSR in the Idaho facility. I asked her what the total Early Renewal price was for MLBEI in 2010 and she confirmed it was $191.94. I replied that this was higher than last...

    Angels broadcaster Rory Markas dies

    I enjoyed Rory's voice quality and enthusiasm on the air, he knew how to use the microphone, and brought plenty of life to Angels radio. 54 is too young to die. Condolences to the Markas family and all you hardcore and casual Angel fans.

    FS Ohio (D* 661) cut off the game tonight in the bottom of the 9th with 1 out. Best Damn Sports Show was shown instead. :confused: Reds won it 7-6.

    Great game for Sabathia in KC tonight, unlike opening day he was in control throughout.

    MLB 2009 Season

    oh of course he'll have better outings this season Jim, I was just pointing out how poorly he looked today in light of his $161m contract! Very disappointing for Yank fans.

    MLB 2009 Season

    Did you catch the Yankees opener in Baltimore? the line for CC Sabbathia: 6 earned runs, 8 hits, walked 5 and 0 strikeouts in just 4.1 innings. What a bust. Looks like Sabbathia is the new fatman of the American League.

    Alex Rodriguez tests positive for steroids and now ADMITS it

    Why didn't MLB discipline the 104 players who tested positive in '03? Why does MLB have a PED policy but hardly enforces it?

    2008 World Series.......Phillies vs. Rays

    2008 MLB Playoffs

    Just loved Scully's references tonight to the Cub fans being 'full of beans' early in the game and then after Man-Ram homered he said 'that hissing sound you hear is the air coming out of Chicago's balloon'. :D

    Merriman out for the year

    The Chargers are still a playoff team even without Merriman, and I expect them to win the West on the strength of their offensive line and LaDainian Tomlinson. For Merriman its gonna be a long haul to get back in Pro Bowl form, if ever again.

    THE ANGELS ARE A.L. WEST CHAMPS!

    Mike Scioscia gets the best out of, not just his starters, but also the Angels auxiliary players too. He's had them playing at this level since Spring training and they haven't let up. Congratulations. :)

    NBA allows in-market streaming

    Because they can. And the few fans who'll use this service aren't near TV's anyway. The NBA knows how to market itself, it's doing the right thing. Just wait streaming to mobile handsets will follow too. The fact is the NBA has streamed its live games via the internet the past couple of...

    Dodgers acquire Greg Maddux

    This move is a small insurance policy on Brad Penny who's on the 15 day DL right now. Maddux will be the Dodgers #4 starter till he gets back. Because 2 NL Central teams will make post season this year, if the Cubs and the Dodgers win their divisions they would play each other in the NLDS...
