Why Cable Sucks (no offense to Breand)

[Grieve]

Blaming the cable companies in this instance is just ... ignent.

You've been down south too long when you start using the local slang.

I didn't blame the cable companies, I just said they suck. I don't care whose fault it is, I just object paying over a hundred bucks a month for 120 channels when the entire family only watches 4 or 5 of them. And I REALLY object to the fact that sports channels make up the majority of the costs when I don't watch them.

I realize that channels would be more expensive when pulled out of the package deal, but my 4-5 channels would still be way cheaper than paying for 120. I'm sure the sports fans would be REALLY screwed without the rest of us subsidizing their ESPN subscription, but that's their problem.

Right now most of the shows my wife watches are on ABC, so we could get most of them online or on iTunes. We only really get the package for CNBC, kids shows (Disney and Cartoon Network) and my wife's HGTV and TLC addiction...
