Pray tell how I can watch the NFL for free? I've had DirecTV for the sole purpose of watching Packers games in Utah for the past 11 years.

 

I usually just ask my more technologically advanced friends for a link.. most of the time it's a signal from a british network but they work much better than mlb.tv has...

Not sure if you pay for Sunday ticket, but every year I just call and tell them I'm cancelling service and when they ask me what they can do to keep me, I tell them to give me Sunday ticket for free. I've never had them say no, at least not after talking to the right people.

 

Yeah, Sunday Ticket subscriber for 11 years. I've never tried that approach, but I guess I will definitely be this year! Though if NFL.com would come up with a similiar product, I'd be all over that and just HDMI it from my laptop like I do with MLB.tv.

They'll ask you for a reason, just tell them you mainly subscribe for Sunday Ticket and just can't afford Sunday ticket this year. They'll get you over to a "retention specialist" who will already have the idea in his/her head that they can dangle Sunday ticket out there and keep you. After 11 years of paying for it, I'd be stunned if they don't just come out and offer it to you right there for free.

 

If you're big on using the Redzone channel and watching online, make sure they give you Sunday Ticket Max. The regular Sunday ticket doesn't include those without Max. I made that mistake when I got it last year and had to call back and push a little harder than I normally have to to get them to cave but they did eventually go ahead and give me Sunday ticket max for free.

Falu has shown nothing at all to make me think he deserves to be on the roster. At least bailey threw a bunch of pitches that inning I guess. Need a quick inning from garza here please!

 

It seems like Braun isn't looking to drive the ball. His swings almost look like he's just simply trying to make contact.

Why so much hand wringing about Braun recently? So he's hitting like a .180 over his last ten days, he hit .450 over the ten days before that. You're talking about sample sizes that are literally meaningless. Braun has been doing just fine this year. After his struggles to start the season and the talk about the hand injury I remember reading posts saying his career was probably over, and he should be platooned or sit down for a couple days. Turns out ten days of plate appearances aren't all that predictive.

Garza has to be the worst pitcher in baseball at throwing to bases. Absolutely flabbergasting that a guy who has to hit tight spots in a strike zone cannot successfully throw the ball at a 6 feet target.

 

If I'm the opposing team I bunt to Garza every time and watch him screw it up.

This is the reason I will never trust Garza in a playoff stretch nor in the playoffs. Choke artist, weak minded fool. Bad signing.
"This is a very simple game. You throw the ball, you catch the ball, you hit the ball. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, sometimes it rains." Think about that for a while.

Certainly is. Though playing the infield in gave th a weak hit that should have never happened. Playing the infield in with guys on second and third in the fifth inning, in the middle of their lineup was idiotic. In that spot just try to limit the damage, not open up the chance for a huge inning.

 

But yeah, garza really sucked and cost us several runs too.
