    FOX to buy back 2026 Big Ten championship game from NBC for $45-55 million

    Right now, I'm paying nothing for YT TV..because it's canceled. So paying for Internet only. All I watch on it is football so easy cancel. That's like $550/year I save vs cable, which didn't let me cancel anytime. But I guess if you have to keep up with the Kardashians and ilk on cable,it...

    FOX to buy back 2026 Big Ten championship game from NBC for $45-55 million

    Streaming's still much better than cable. Netflix is $8.99 ..think it was $7 or $8 when I first got it in 2012. Yeah, commercials suck ..but they sucked on cable, too. And so long as they keep cancel anytime, TV streaming packages will be better than cable too. Canceled in Feb this year so...

    OT: Worn out by Rutgers sports

    I don't think I could take following RU sports year round. Occasionally I'll watch a basketball game or two, but I really just follow football ...limits the disappointment.

    OT: RU's Bus

    x1000 Always thought it was a fun holiday for kids playing pranks, not an excuse for professional organizations to pretend to be kids playing pranks.

    OT: Anyone else think Rutgers is absurdly expensive?

    The last paragraph is where you lose it. Don't have to leave this board for plenty of examples that disprove that overgeneralizatiion.

    OT: Anyone else think Rutgers is absurdly expensive?

    It's a bit mind-boggling how folks want to reverse hundreds of years of quality of life improvements. Or not that mind-boggling since it's solely advice for anonymous others doing work they need done.

    OT: Anyone else think Rutgers is absurdly expensive?

    Does raise the issue the trades advocates pretend to overlook:some blue collar jobs are not so great for your safety, health and/or overall quality of life. Which is why parents tend to push kids toward other paths.

    OT: NY Yankees 2026 Season Thread

    That Netflix presentation was an absolute clown show. I watched the game later and had to fast forward through close to an hour and a half of pregame to get to actual gameplay. And it took about 20 minutes 'cause you inevitably hit commercials that you can't FF. Second inning and Fried made it...

    OT: Water Heater

    In this case, I think it was reading too fast. I did the same and had to read it over again to make sure I understood, but the wording said what you meant and wasn't ambiguous ...Just easy to misinterpret with a quick read. Can't say the same for all posts! As to OP ..floods suck, change that...

    OT: NY Yankees 2026 Season Thread

    Yeah, not a big fan of all the different streamers taking a bite, plus MLB's weird broadcast rules. I have MLB.TV and it's getting annoying having all these games blacked out. Wtf am I paying for? Also, the noob announcers are annoying as hell.

    OT: Anyone else think Rutgers is absurdly expensive?

    So you shouldn't have gone to RU then? Four extra years of doing what you do would have you even farther ahead, no? And I guess it goes without saying that if you have kids, they aren't going to college but straight into launching a business. Heck, maybe even skip those last months of HS once...

    OT: Anyone else think Rutgers is absurdly expensive?

    Always a neat sound bite. But I dont recall my peer group wanting to rush into hands on, physical labor, either. Maybe too busy checking our dumb phones and Gmail? Not like the trades weren't a safe bet back then, too. What I do remember is those parents who were doing physical, hard labor...

    Not too sad. It took Jesus three days. Chuck Norris will be back tomorrow morning.
