Anyone who believes that Google took it to the Mouse and showed them is naive. It’s pretty much a guarantee that prices will increase over this and Disney made out well one way or another over this. We have no idea what the backroom deals were. Both companies are shitbags.

Finally! how log has it been 2-3 years?


About a year and a half since Season 1 was released. So not an awful wait to where you forget the whole plot like a lot of shows.

Only other issue was the dvr was pretty limited without having to pay extra vs YTTV and the app isn’t always available on various smart TV operating systems


You get unlimited DVR so I am not sure where you are seeing this. Also, if you go out and read reviews most people agree that the picture quality is better due to the bitrates being higher for DirecTV and also YTTV will downscale channels to 720p at times.

People knock it for the price against YTTV base package, but you get more out of it. Unlimited streams within your household and up to three outside. 4K is included. Also, if you have a Gemini device then ESPN Unlimited along with Disney+ and Hulu (with ads) is included. Plus, it offers more regional sports packages if you are into that. Most of these are add-ons for YTTV.

You just need to determine if that is something you want right off the bat or if the base YYTV package is enough.

Don’t blame anybody for canceling but it’s not YouTube TV’s fault that Disney is intentionally making unreasonable demands to YT that it knows YT won’t agree to. Disney is trying to nuke YTTV to force people onto its new ESPN app. I’m not saying it’s right or wrong that’s just what’s going on.


100% this. People keep putting blame on the provider, but it's the networks doing this by overvaluing their content and trying to strongarm the providers. Every provider goes through this so saying one is better than the other in this scenario is dumb.
This is Kiffin we’re talking about. Of course it’s going to be about money.
His next contract is going to be ridiculous.

Absolutely. This series is definitely better via the audiobook.
Texas did the same as well and the complaints have been minimal. It needed to be done.

I keep waiting for him to crash out, but he keeps proving me wrong. Wish he would get more RBI opportunities though. He's 3rd in hits, but only 21 RBIs.
Meyers goes 4-4 and the rest of the team doesn't do shite. Book it.

Apple hasn’t been innovative in a good while.

Yamamoto, Hunter Greene and Hunter Brown are pretty high up there.
There was an article a while back showing how the younger umps were more accurate in their calling balls/strikes as compared to the older ones. What sucks about this is that the older ones have tenure and are assigned the big games. Maybe have a cognitive test or something to determine if they are still fit to work the game.

But I agree with OP, it seems to be getting worse and worse each year going by the eye test.

Another thing too is a good pitcher will adapt and not just throw a meatball down the middle.

Pretty much. Having worked with some of them in the workforce I've seen a 50/50 split. Half are lazy shits and the other half are hardworking folk. There doesn't seem to be a middle ground with them.
Man the Stros really live rent free in y'alls heads. Are you all female or something? Find something new or at least get your T levels checked.
I voted for change and we are getting that instead of sticking with the status quo of spending money we don't have which obviously wasn't working. Whether it works out in the long run remains to be seen, but I am willing to give it a chance before passing judgment. Anyone who posts here thinking they know how the system works is full of shite.
