You can buy internet without getting cable TV from cable companies. I know a few people that don't have Cable TV, but have cable broadband internet. Most offices do too. |

We (and thus you) were speaking in general terms, i.e. county-wide. And country-wide, you sure can get cable internet without cable tv. If you were only talking about your local area, YOU should have made that clear. Instead, it seems obvious that you THOUGHT that the rules that exist in your local area apply to the whole country in general. But you were WRONG about that, as usual. |

In NYC where there is Time/Warner they have Phone, Internet and Cable Service. Commonly refered to as "Triple Play". Lately they've also been offering the services seperately if you don't want the entire package. |

That was a wild Phillie's-Dodgers game last night. 11-0, and I think we need to clone Cliff Lee. The Phils offense was pretty good, also.We'll see what the next game brings. |

Unfortunately, it wasn't meant to be as Andy got a no decision in a wild game. Yankees scored their four runs on solo home runs. Yankees still lead 2-1 and are 5-1 so far in this postseason. |

Maybe, but like the Tigers in 2006 showed: the Yankees did very well against them in the regular season only to lose in the ALDS. So it's sorta like apples and oranges.Now Cliff Lee v. Sabathia would sure make Indians fans pissed off :) That's a 1-2 punch they would've loved to have if they had the money to keep them. |

Poor Joe Torre - he hasn't been to the World Series since 2003 and the Dodgers are still waiting for their first visit since 1988.I believe that is the fourth longest dry streak behind the Cubs (1945), the Pirates (1979) and the Orioles (1983). If the Angels don't come back, they will extend their streak of not winning the A.L. Pennant after winning the A.L. West. |

Yeah, Joe without Mariano is just...JOE.Rivera made Torre look spectacular with those Yankee World Series victories.Also, Joe had a "juiceless" Manny who now is just a normal ballplayer.Same thing happened to "Big Poppy" Ortiz in Boston.Congrats to the Phils who look like a World Series team.Looks like Yanks-Phils and it should be great.GO PHILS!!!! |
