Manny vs Floyd won't happen... it's just typical Mayweather (bleep)

I am just hoping for good fights from other fighters. GGG vs Andre Ward please...

Ditto! That is, assuming GGG gets through Martin Murray, which I think he will with ease.

You guys will like this. Even the outsourced TWC Technician said DirecTV kills it and he even made the switch!

The only issue I had with it was, I'd still have to keep TWC internet (no FiOS/U-Verse or anything close in speed to TWC), so splitting off TV from cable ends up costing me just as much, with all the channels I have and that's before the initial 2 year deal expires on DirectTV.

Nonetheless, I had so many issues with a simple DVR swap that I ended up getting a discounted deal that saved me $40 a month for at least 1 year. By this time next year, I'll be exploring a switch for sure, but just saving so much money right now that once they corrected the issues, it's worth grin and bearing it until that time.

I currently pat $240/mon for TWC Internet, Cable, Phone (I know please don't kill me for having a home phone). I got 5 boxes, a dvr, and hbo/sho..

Been thinking of switching to DirecTV, but I wanna keep the TWC internet.. im just not sure if I'd end up saving anything.

^^^^^ Won't kill you for the home phone, I have one. I rarely use it for calling. I have it because it gives me a fax line. It's truly amazing how much business can be completed by fax. It cuts mailing 80% and is most times instant response.

I have 2 mocha DVR's (one being the new 6 tuner whole home dvr) and 1 playback box. I also have a digital tuner box (4 pieces of equipment). My bill was recently dropped to much lower than the $220 I was paying before (after taxes) w/ just internet and TV. I had to add a phone line, which I didn't really want, but ended up using it as a dedicated fax number.

When the Direct TV folks at Best Buy had initially priced it out for me, the combination of paying just for Internet (TWC) and DirectTV, came out to $5-10 less, per month, for the 1st 2 years (contract w/ DirectTV). After contract expiration, it would go up by $50 per month!

Something to also keep in mind, once you're no longer in a package deal with TWC, pricing goes up, so Internet only through TWC would go up to whatever their single service fees are for internet.

Yup, jo. Before, I was opposed to having TW phone, since I have a dedicated landline for safety purposes (I take care of both my senior citizen parents, so having a separate landline is really important). Packaging a phone line (TW has VOIP) dropped my bill by a lot, for 1 year, so I will be using it as a dedicated fax.

I accidentally deleted all the boxing on my dvr. Had a strong collection. Brutal. Now watching this Herrera robbery.

Just don't work that way. Especially when one fighter brings in three times as much as the other.

Andy Lee and that right hook was nice. Dude was being schooled by Korobov. Dude pulled that right hook out of his drawls. Glad to see him finally get over the hump.

Yeah he was getting spanked. Somewhere Emanuel Steward is smiling.

dough, was that DirecTV error or your own? Not making a strong case for them...LOL.

And yes, I feel really bad for Herrera. The guy keeps getting robbed left and right. That was worse than the Bradley decision.

Surprisingly, Julie Lederman is the one who had the card that was questionable for the Bradley vs. Chaves fight, and she's usually on point with her decisions.

LOL...If I were rich, I probably wouldn't worry about the costs at all. Just comes with the territory of having to take care of 2 elderly parents and working full time, in entertainment (which can be a 60-70 hour week).

I will say, I'm very very good at budgeting...LOL.

That surprised me, as you say she's usually on point. Harold had it 116 112 Bradley, opposite of Julie.

Oh yeah! Fight of the night for sure. Kinda reminded me of Khan vs. Garcia, where Khan was really dominating every round...and then...

Korobov wasn't really "dominating" as much as Khan, but that hook by Lee just changed the fight right away. If he hadn't ended it and Korobov survived, it still would've been an intriguing fight to score.

I did that with my phone photos. I'll never get her to pose like that again.

That was crazy too, that she was the complete opposite of her Dad! I typically find my scores 1 round different from Harold and Julie (at most).

Just makes me wonder, since she typically would be a NY judge, did someone get to her?

Sometimes it's the angles they're watching the fight from, I know when I go to fights, I typically sit real close, then watch it at home and there's always things that looked different from my POV.

It was my mistake. It was recording a fight that I had already seen and deleted the wrong programming. The file that had all the fights. I just started screaming. I even lost my debut performance on HBO at the Bradley/ProVo fight and the tremendous performance of me running back to my seat as Arreola had Mitchell stumbling all over the ring. I had a case of mudbutt, thought it would go longer than a round and while sitting on the john, heard the crowd roaring. You can literally see my boy telling me the fight is over as I got back to my seat.
