Pretty much, sans the NHL Network and the MLB stuff...

I really like the service, but am being a jerked around over this second HD stream that I should be getting...it seems like everytime I call, no one knows what to do to fix it...in fact, I was called a liar yesterday by a rep when I told her that the St. Louis-area now has 2 HD streams per home...

Yes and no...the problem as I understand it that not all the employees are on the same page...people that call in that are requesting it get different answers...

It's aggravating to know that my next door neighbor can sign up and get the 2HD streams immediately while myself, having it for roughly two months now, can't get it switched...they wasted nearly two hours of my evening only to come to the conclusion that the technical help desk can't take care of it -- the sales department can "expedite it"...

Then I got to a Uverse forum and see someone get their's taken care of by...technical support...

Tomorrow should be a fun day...

and that be your final
Berkman went 5-5. That Tejada - Berkman - Lee trio is killing right now.

After a shit 6 - 12 start the team is actually over .500. Plus they are fun to watch with all the come from behind wins. I may not burn the tickets I have just yet.

would be nice if they got out of that "let's wait til we're behind then decide to do something big" mentality, but it does make for some good games. and i didn't realize berkman went 5-5 until this morning since i had to switch from the game to the news since we had a big fire in town. while i won't take blame for the fire, i do sponser berkman!

Votto and Dunn go back to back in the 2nd, 2-0 Reds.

Now Bako. 3-0.

Hairston Jr is #4 in the inning, a 2-run shot. 5-0. Sigh. The pitcher is Jon Lieber, btw.
