OT: Anything Goes 35 - Tony O Edition

Same here, although I have DirecTV and rather than snow it's very heavy extended rain conditions, which generally at it's worse lasts less than 30 min.

Yea I have DirecTV too. They got bought up by AT&T a few years back.

Speaking of this stuff, the news yesterday of the Disney+, Hulu, & ESPN+ bundle is great stuff.

Any of the dad's out there have a good way to get out a really really bad hair tangle? Our two year old twirls her hair alot and has a big rats nest in her hair. We might have to cut her hair to get it out. My wife is not handling it well. I find it kind of amusing but know better than to express that, lol.

I’m not sure about a two year old but I have to make sure my eight year old conditions her hair and we use detangling spray sometimes.

Detangling spray and brushing.

I have had no problem with Uverse. However, the local cable provider and ATT are having a dispute and FOX and ABC are currently not being carried. If they don't get this figured out by the start of football season I'm changing my provider

Cable companies change their promotions and pricing so often, it’s advisable to call now and then to see if you can get a better deal. I called my company recently, and they lowered my bill by $75 and threw in a couple premium channels for free.

I always do this after my promo runs out. Wait one month paying the higher price then tell them I'm going to change if they can't cut me a deal.

Screw that - don't even pay the higher price. Just do it right before then and they'll still cut you a deal.

I called Comcast twice and they refused to do anything for me. I eventually switched to YouTube TV and they finally offered me a better deal but I told them it was too late. Very happy with YouTube TV and saving about $108 a month from what I was paying Comcast.

Car insurance is another one where people can usually save a good chunk of change if they put in the effort. These things all add up.

I would love to go with a streaming service for TV, but my interest just isn't reliable enough right now.

My insurance guy requotes for us every year and we typically save. He is a good friend so that helps as well.

Was jogging in the park at twilight, left the path to avoid a cluster of people, cane down on an uneven spot of ground and rolled my ankle. Took me two hours to get home doing a hopalong Cassidy. Hurts like hell. Ruined our weekend plans. Not sure how long I’ll be on crutches. I may be particularly ornery around here in the coming days.

Ankle injuries suck. The absolute worst. I feel your pain. I've had numerous ankle injuries, and even the most minor one can be awful.

Ouch. Ankle injuries are the worst. Did you go down when it happened?

I would have if not for a small tree that broke my fall, that I was clutching for dear life. It must have looked like we were making love. I’ve never sprained an ankle before, and I was worried that if I went down I wouldn’t be able to get up.

 

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

Ankle injuries are awful. They take forever to heal and if it’s bad enough it’ll take years to feel 100% normal.

Plus your ankle is never really the same.

Streaming services do save you a ton of money. I think PlayStation Vue is the best for a sports fan. Living in Florida, directv isn’t that popular here. Spectrum sucks. AT&T finally just brought their fiber service here. Get 300 up and down for 30 dollars a month less than what I paid for 50 down and 10 up. Crazy that they allowed Brighthouse/Spectrum to have a monopoly that long on central Florida.

Saw Marty St. Louis at the rink this past weekend. Dude is still an absolute unit. That's a "smurf" I'd never want to meet in the corner for a loose puck.

Tree trunks for legs.

One of my all time favorite players.

That's most hockey players, honestly.

Biggest issue all hockey players have is finding pants that fit right in pre-made sizes. Lol. They'll always be fine length and waist, but they don't fit in the ass and thighs at all.

Yep it was an issue for me starting HS. A lot of tailoring work done at the local tailor (I was picky).
