Another example how espn sucks now, according to them (Darren smith) it's a bold prediction for the reigning champs to go on a run and win the NFC South,what a joke?

No f'n way!!!!

NFLNetwork rocks. And so does the Android App. I can watch all of the highlights on my phone.

Methinks the ESPN guys are using the same tool as the Teleprompter President.

We turned off DirecTV 2 years ago. No cable, no satellite. Just an antenna on the roof and Netflix.

We have never regretted it. We watch Netflix streaming using the Internet and a Samsung Netflix enabled DVD plus we watch the DVD's. The only commercials I see are during football games. Saints games I watch at the bar with 100 of my fellow Saints fans. I watch a few other football games using the antenna at the house.

My DirecTV bill is now my bar tab for Saints games at the bar and I never spend it all.

No ESPN. I think ESPN is the male version of Oprah, Maury Povich, and Jerry Springer. I travel a lot and get exposed to ESPN in restaurants and bars and quite often I have told the waitress to turn off the volume or I was leaving. Only an addle-brained dimwit could watch the afternoon ESPN lineup and derive enjoyment from it.

Dammit, Gump, You are a Damn Genius!

Why wont my wife agree to do that. I dont need cable. I dont watch Dancing with the stars, Fat People Getting Yelled at, or any of the crap on TV now. 98 of the 100 channels on my cable are GARBAGE. I have about 8 channels of nothing but the most idiotic people they can possibly find in Houston.

Nothing like paying somebody 60 dollars a month to make you fat, lazy, and stupid, not to mention their 24 hour assault on the character of my kids.

I can watch the road games at the bar. Home games I'm in the Dome.

Gumbeau has the best answer yet. Forget TV.
