Jack--I absolutley positively could not live without my NFL Sunday Ticket. No going back to basic cable with only local games.

If you were losing your picture that often, there was surely a problem with either the equipment (the dish itself) of there was some interference of some sort (a tree blocking the signal maybe).

Seth: Fogell, this ID says that you're 25 years old. Why wouldn't you just put 21, man?
Fogell: Seth, Seth, Seth. Listen up, ass-face: every day, hundreds of kids go into the liquor store with fake IDs, and every single one says they're 21. Pssh, how many 21 year olds do you think there are in this town? It's called f*cking strategy, alright?

Its all about the Viewsat. Its only been out a couple of days for having free tv for 4 months. I think thats well worth it. The best is getting all of the extra college games that normally are ppv or local. Next new toy is a slingbox.

Only time my directv goes out is when there is a storm in the area. When I had cable it seemed like couldnt go more than a few days without having an interruption in service. DirecTv for 5 years now and cannot see myself ever going back to cable.
