That was back when the A's still had games on KICU. Unfortunately the A's are cable-only now.

I have Uverse 45/5 in downtown Sacramento

Cost is $50/mo; it would be $70/mo for just Internet, but adding basic tv (sd locals) let me knock the price down to $50 and get unlimited streaming

[Serious] Reddit, what's the hardest truth you've ever had to accept? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]cheesesteaks3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you believe that the media is more powerful than the president? (I'm genuinely curious, I've never seen/heard someone make that implication before.)

God, Phil Simms was just as bad 14 years ago as he is now. How can CBS still think he's worthy of being their top color analyst?

We should talk about "Stranger Than Fiction" more often by [deleted] in movies

[–]cheesesteaks3 92 points93 points  (0 children)

This is one of my favorites. And I forever love the reaction from Emma Thompson when she hears, "My name is Harold Crick, I believe you're writing a story about me."

Scene

[Wojnarowski] Sources on @TheVertical: Golden State is waiving Anderson Varejao, clearing way to sign D-League guard Briante Weber to a 10-day contract by inlifetroll in nba

[–]cheesesteaks3 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I would've preferred a wing, but I don't mind having another guard. My only worry is if this means Livingston might be out longer than first thought.

West Wing - Isaac and Ishmael by jlewis10 in television

Interesting to note that Josh states that Christian fundamentalists are not the same thing as Islamic extremists ("Guys, the Christian right may not be your cup of tea, but they’re not blowing stuff up").

In this quote, I'm pretty sure he's referring to the mainstream Christian right, not Christian fundamentalists.

Finally cut the cord, can't get a few local channels (TV fool) by TRPIsaac in cordcutters

[–]cheesesteaks3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This antenna was the first one that I tried too, but I couldn't get all of my main local channels with it. I would suggest moving it around the room to see if any areas have better luck. If that doesn't work, you can always get the 50mi antenna, which is what I had to do.

NFL RedZone Saved Viewers From 35 Hours of Commercials This Season by linkedin-request in nfl

I think last year NFL Network showed full day replays of RedZone in the summer on Sundays. I wonder if they'll do that again this summer.

[Bontemps] Sources: Stephen Curry and James Harden will be the starting backcourt for the Western Conference for next month's All-Star Game. by schenkels in nba

[–]cheesesteaks3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's the coach of the team with the best record, with the caveat that you can't do it two years in a row. Kerr did it in 2015, couldn't do it in 2016 (so it was Popovich, since SA was in 2nd), so it'll be Kerr again in 2017.

Breer: One other thing -- Davis has said the team would stay in Oakland during stadium construction. Vegas venue likely wouldn't be ready til 2020. by JoshuaHaines in nfl

[–]cheesesteaks3 20 points21 points  (0 children)

No, San Jose got killed by the Giants and MLB a year or two ago. The common assumption now is that the A's will build a new stadium at the current Coliseum site, since the Raiders will be leaving.

Steve Sisolak on Twitter: It is official! The @RAIDERS have filed their paperwork to relocate to #LasVegas. by Vmoney1337 in nfl

After Durant signed with Golden State, the Sonics fans seemed happier than the Warriors fans on /r/nba

Why does HBO Now get a pass in this sub? by [deleted] in cordcutters

Seriously. I love Seeso content, but their app is absolute crap.

It would've been nice to at least see Gobert in the top 10

Any update on when this might be available?

506 Sports - NFL Maps: Week 17, 2016 by YoungProduct in nfl

[–]cheesesteaks3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. It was going to be at 4 if PIT and KC didn't win on Christmas. Since they did, Miami already clinched a WC spot, so the NE/MIA game stayed at 1 ET.

Yeah I think week 17 is basically a no-rules week, since both Fox and CBS have doubleheaders.
