I know one thing for certain is that I cancel cable entirely once NESN gets pulled from the tier that it's in now. Prepared to make that call on a moment's notice. Hell, I'm salivating at the thought

Two companies I despise, they both suck..
Yep. I've had to call NUMEROUS times over the last decade. My dad too.

It was hard even getting someone on the phone that's not overseas and can help.

Been overcharged a bunch. I've had nice workers help lower the bill or given money off.

I can't afford any more price hikes. But I'm stuck with Comcast. So it's a no win situation for me.

I cut cable out a couple years ago. Don't miss it.

Earlier this year I ditched Netflix and Hulu. On occasion I wish I still had one or the other, but then I find something else to do and get over it.

I still have Amazon Prime, and I watch a lot of stuff on YouTube, and I pay for no commercials on those.

I mostly follow the Bruins on here and Twitter.

Life goes on without all that stuff... and my bank account is happier for it.

I haven't had cable since 2012 when I got my first Roku. Cable is too much money for 1,000 channels that are playing commercials 1/3rd of the time. TV today is garbage anyways, nothing like the 80s-2000s

I like to be able to flip back and forth between games, which you can’t do when one is streaming and the other is on cable.

It’s one of the reasons I rarely watch Thursday Night Football. The Bruins are usually on as well. Last night, baseball playoffs were on.

Judd is sticking to the action and letting Brick, who is an insightful color commentator, breath.

No dumb repetitive, self serving, corny comments. I get some people liked it. I found it extremely unprofessional.

I for one see the broadcast as a big improvement.(no indictment of Jack as a human, I'm sure he's a fine chap and loves his Bruins)

He’s just fine. He was fine on radio too. I think it was a no brainer. I feel Beers deserves a shot eventually.
Sirott's been good. Its been a breath of fresh air. Brickley too. For me, I watch hockey to be entertained by the play on the ice. Not by the guys in the booth. Call a steady game, add some insight on things behind the play and I'm good...

Not a Beers fan. Drives me nuts when he interrupts and talks over the radio call during a game. Brickley at least has a sense of timing on when to chime in.

Yeah please never put Beers on TV. All he does is interrupt and bitch about things whenever I hear him on the radio.

I think Judd is doing a fine job. I liked his call on the radio and it works on TV.

So far, so good.

He’s a bit over the top, but an upgrade none the less.

And he’s bringing out the best in Brick, who I thought was washed the past couple of seasons.
good pt on Brick, felt at times he let Jack do his thing and he kind of got lost at times. Really like this combo
