Shhhh people want to just complain and cut the cord. And then spend more to have 18 streaming services.

I've had DIRECTV and have for nearly 15 years or more. I have a mid tier package with HBO and pay like $87

That also gives me Max and DIRECTV streaming and espn streaming for most things like Aggie baseball


Ain't that the truth. I cut the cord and now have Fubo, Disney+, Paramount, Max, Hulu and Prime, DAZN and FITE. I would guess my bill is 50% more than what the old cable bundle cost

My two year contract with xfinity was up… but I got them to lower mine to renew.

$155 for internet and tv combined. So I'm pretty happy with them for the time being.

Yeah, confused by the $200+ comments, unless they just have every channel out there. Our promo deal was about $120/month for a year. Now it's similar to yours, $150-$160. Either way, cheaper than doing just internet then doing fubo. Advantage of fubo would be the ability to cancel and add as we want, but I really just don't see us doing that.


It just depends on the internet you have. I have 400mbps because my kids arent old enough to have devices they need WiFi for and I don't online game. 95% of the time it's the TV on streaming YouTube TV, me on my phone, and my wife on her phone. No lagging issues at all.

400mbps works for my family, and is $45/month. YTTV is like $80 with taxes, so I get way with about $120/month. If I move to Fubo, it will be about $150/ month.

If you feel you need more internet that that, 800mbps can be between $70-80/month. Add fubo and definitely can get close to $180/month.

I would submit people probably have more internet than they actually need, but if you have teens with devices/laptops or online game, certainly can add up quick.

For clarity, I'm at $150 and have the gigabit extra (1.2 gbps) plan. Overkill for sure, but think the upgrade was free since we have xfinity mobile.

So yeah, we'd likely be pushing over $200 if we were doing streaming instead of cable.

This is true. I got 800 mbps with the xfi gateway that has unlimited data for an extra $15/month. Could probably do a little less than that on speed for what I use it for but I don't want to mess with data caps. Unlimited internet at a good speed, plus cable/Stros for $160/month is perfectly fine with me.

Several years ago, have no proof now, but at the time Xfinity had no competition at my address, $200 or more was truely cheapest internet and cable bundle where I'd get Astro games

I mean, I have to imagine the sales of jerseys dropping precipitously, right? When do the powers that be correct the mistake?

Even at academy they were $175 also

They just looked cheap with smaller lettering. Also you'd need an undershirt with the white jerseys. Pretty thin material

Someone in the know, what do they see in Kessinger? He's been a cancer bat in the minors save one year.

Plus defense at a key position. Got on base at a 40% clip in the minors last year and they've been happy with the progress he's made.

At the new Little Woodrows that took over Lucky's by the Dynamo stadium before the Dynamo game tonight. It's damn big and has a huge patio like the others. This gonna be a nice Stro pregame spot.
