Look at us outrunning that Bama secondary..

Circle of life moment: our HC was a member of that secondary.

 

[bignewt]

What do you pay right now for all your services?

Internet $50, YoutubeTV $50

Used to be $170 for internet and att uverse.

Do the math.

 

[bignewt]

Wife and I both work from home. On internet all day essentially.

still don't see you bumping 2 tb a month and AT&T offers higher monthly limits than that.

 

[butchna]

I kept reading this post in this guy's voice lol...

“The Warm!”

 

[Kingston Vol]

Wouldn't it depend on if you pay for the internet anyway?
We go over our cap with business uploads, regularly.
I'll get unlimited the second it becomes available, so that wouldn't get included as a streaming expense.

Yeah, I’ve found the internet expense is the real dealbreaker in the whole thing.

Big Mouth is so friggin hilarious.

 

[bignewt]

But don't you already have internet? I don't get that.

Do the math.

I get that you individually cut costs, but it’s because you were getting a bad deal before cutting the cord. Likely because you were a long time customer and lost your introductory pricing.

Anyway, you could sign up for AT&T through another name, or sign up for Xfinity or another top carrier, use their introductory pricing, and get three times the channels for like $110. Not to mention the exponential stability increase traditional cable gives over streaming

I have zero problems streaming, I dont need 500 channels of crap I would never watch and I don't want to have to call the cable company and spend an hour on the phone to haggle a price decrease every year. bewm.

yeah, you're a terrible reference on the whole internet TV thing lol....

Even if they don't have your plan option, you have to deduct the amount for your regular internet.

If unlimited for someone is $75 vs their current plan being say $50, then it's not a $75 increase, it's only $25.

Ainge pumping some serious sunshine today if y’all want a pick me up. He’s all in on this team

 

[Jack Burton]

Brad Shepard shared a nice long post last night on 247...

The Jennings info isn’t surprising. I said I doubted he’d be 100% by kickoff and was quickly accosted here. VQ and now Brad Shepard are indicating he wont be 100% this season. I’ll accept any gracious apologies in this thread today.

 

[nicksjuzunk]

Been on a diet for last two months and doing 6 days a week in the gym. But when football season starts I can't help myself. I'm already preparing a feast in my head what I'll make on game day.

Grill as much animal as you want and call it a day

He is always in on every UT team regardless.

Okay, so you agree with me. It’s not about saving money.

500 channels of crap + added stability + same exact internet package = cable is still a better deal than the 70 channels you get through YouTubeTV or Sling or whatever.

All these streaming services are a big scam tricking hipsters into thinking they’re getting a better deal.

How about a knife fight? Would you accept some of that?

Yep. Lol. He was Butch’s biggest ass kisser.

Sell me on YouTube TV. I need to get ready for football season.

Marinate.

Umm no. You think more channels is a better deal, I say I would never watch them so why pay more for something I don't use or need? I also said I have no issues with stability so strike two. Give me 70 channels, unlimited dvr and saving $70 a month all day every day. Do you work for a cable company?

yeah, but most people are paying for their interent anyway, so i don't see the point in including it in your streaming costs. you're paying for the internet AND your cable/satellite.

and that introductory price is just that...introductory.

the flexibility streaming provides is so much nicer than what you cand do with cable/satellite. you can spend as much or as little as you want.

so, me for example, i do internet home phone and internet together, it's like $60. by doing that i eliminated my previous $70 bill for internet only AND my $30/mo phone bill. so that's $40 saved just by doing that.

i was spending just north of $200 for direct TV...so for internet, phone and directtv, it was approaching $300/month.

got rid of that and now do PSVue, netflix, Hulu for $70ish a month. i have HBONow and Showtime, but i only have those as long as i need/want them for whatever shows they have...cancel at anytime.

so where i was,just 2 years ago spending $300/mo on phone, interenet and satellite, i'm now spending $130.

$150-$160/mo when i have HBO/Showtime.
I also have Amazon Prime Video, but it comes with a prime membership, and we use that for more than the streaming, so i don't really count that in that spending since it's a dual use thing....but throw another $9/month on top of that if you want to.

either way, i'm still saving around $120/month over what i was spending.
