That's illegal sir.

So is having your friends over and watching the game on a 55"+ TV. Or watching at a bar that is showing the game on more than 4 screens.

If somebody (who's paid) wants to share the goods publicly, whatever, I'll watch. It's 2019. Ain't nobody got time for blackouts, restrictions, etc.

I can throw in my 3.5" floppies of Tony LaRussa Baseball 92 and I think I still have the CD of NHL PowerPlay 97, too.

You will have to call comcast or verizon or whoever you get your bundle through and ask to downgrade your service to internet only, and you want the 2 year contract rate. Threaten to leave them entirely if they don't budge.

If you get a stubborn person on the phone, hang up and try again. Most are scripted to retain the customer no matter what. You shouldnt be paying more than 50 dollars per month for internet at 100/100. That is plenty unless you are streaming a ton of devices simultaneously.

Then trial Sony Vue and YoutubeTV and see which you like better. Your bill should be 100/mo for everything.

It takes some effort but is totally worth it. I don't miss cable one bit.

What do you think Columbus is? A Dave Scott-led organization?

Agreed, this company brainwashing that everything is illegal is getting old. Technically, according to greedy companies, letting someone borrow a movie, music cd or a book is against the law. Again according to them, paying for something does not mean you own it, it just means you purchased the right to use it at their discretion.

As long as you don't profit off someone else's work or copyrighted material everything is fair game, but they don't want you to believe that.

Leaks are bad, better to have rumored speculations out then the truth.

I just went through this and dropped my bill from $65 to $45 for two years. The first guy will say $65 is the best they can do. Threaten to cancel and the next guy will drop it. It takes some work but it's worth it.

I used to go back and forth from comcast to fios and rotate in me and my girlfriend name to get the new customer discounts for 2 years than cancel.

I did that with Comcast before I moved. I ended up getting 300 down for $44.xx plus fees/tax then shortly after they bumped it up to 600 down.

I speculate....

Bob threatened Columbus to trade him or he will go to the KHL, so Columbus gave him a timeout.

I have their performance pro (150/5) for $89.95. They have Blast (250/5) for $59.99, but won't give it to me because that's only for new customers.

Ideas?

For some reason I envision strippers cocaine and lots of vodka after a game. Maybe in Vegas.

Oof that’s a lot. You’re going to have to call them and play hardball. Threaten to cancel. If you don’t get the answer you want hang up and call again.
