I had cable back in the day but always split the bill with a roommate, it was bundled with our internet. When I got married I had it for a year and never have had it since. It's just filler. I watch nothing on ESPN and just wouldn't be sitting down to watch local sports every night anyway. I don't miss it. It's one of those things that you have to get used to not having, but then you don't want it again. There's tremendous variety so it gets hard to compare apples and oranges. I pay $70/mo for Internet, two cell lines, Disney+ and Netflix. Internet is $19, weird service that most people probably don't have access to but it works, two lines at Republic Wireless are $20 each with a BYOD plan.That's all I need. Internet for work and streaming but nothing hardcore. Too many shows that I want to watch but can't. When I had cable I'd browse for something so I could watch TV. Now it's only when I want to watch it or I find something else to do. I probably save a lot more than most would but it's not always but straight savings. It can be about trimming excess and being productive with your time.

That doesn't really work anymore. Most of them only allow you to view live sports when connected via the Internet service that's part of the subscription.

I wound up using Reddit even when I paid for Sling. It never buffered as much as Sling did and I wound up just pulling the Brewers up on my laptop 90% of the time vs. firing Sling up on the TV. I had this nice vision of relaxing on the couch watching games from start to finish and of course it never happened that way.
-
FSN pulled out of Sling last year. I dropped it the next day. I was barely using it anyway though. YouTubeTV seems to be the popular choice but at that price point it loses all appeal to me.

I got two Bucks aprons from a Palermo's box, lol.
-
I've had the cauliflower homemade and Costco's. It falls under the pesto category. I thought it was good, but, I won't call it pizza.
-
Relax. I never said you couldn't like Pizza Hut, Pizza Planet, Pizza Face or that you had to love Dom's. I didn't even reply to you. I said it's the closest thing to a traditional pizza among the chains, which is true if you believe a traditional pizza uses fresh dough. That's not my opinion. That's how they make it, and Pizza Hut uses a pre-made frozen crust. I'm happy that you like it. I don't why you responded like that.
-
Dom's is the closest thing to a genuine pizza among the chains. Pizza Hut uses premade frozen dough and over the years has been the master of the gimmick, cheesy bites crust, stuffing the crust with mozz, etc. If you like that sort of thing or don't care, you'll probably like Pizza Hut. It's basically the Taco Bell equivalent of Pizza which isn't entirely surprising since both are Yum! brands. Admittedly, it's been quite a long time (5+ years) since I've eaten at either one.
-
I wouldn't eat Little Caesars if someone gave me $5. I agree on the Papa John's sugar sauce, but I still think it's better than LC.
-
I think Pizza Hut is awful, but I legitimately like Domino's and think it holds up against most non-chain places. I loved the Triple Deckeroni and Pizza Hut way back in the day but not sure how it would hold up against time. Dom's went through a period of near bankruptcy but they really came back nicely. Now that Papa Murphy's has been mentioned, I will shamefully admit to enjoying the take and bakes at Walmart. I've yet to find a better frozen pizza value. My brother worked at Pizza Hut in the late 90s. The "pan crust" pizza is literally a deep fried donut with tomato sauce on it. They would saturate the pan with a half inch of oil before they put the crust in.
-
Second Wild Tomato, I think they have two locations, Fish Creek and Egg Harbor. It might be the best I've had in WI. I think there are two classes of pizza. The artisan, "actually good" pizza like WT, and the stuff you want after polishing half a liter of Jack.
-
Pineapple's fine. But I hate when anyone tries to pass off pesto pizza or anything without tomato sauce as pizza. I'll eat them and they're good, but that's a flatbread homie it's not a pizza.
-
Are you trying to say that something's off about a pizza joint going up in flames at 6am?
-
The mention of Whitewater reminded me Rosa's, which I knew closed and I thought I heard it wasn't reopening. A random Google later and I see it very much reopened last summer. I loved that place. Then I remembered a conversation with my SIL's father, a claims adjuster. He told me a while ago that the fire (reason it closed) was basically an arson they couldn't prove definitively.
-
I like Transfer in MKE. I find the pizza in MKE to be lacking once you're not part of the 3am crowd. Not that it's bad, it's just not anything special. Transfer is good though.
-
Idk, Thor was left off flying through space with the Guardians and Captain Marvel is all over the place. She only recently got involved with earth, so I didn't find either of those excuses particularly weak. I assume Thor will be a big piece in the new Guardians film. I'm also not sure your solution would work. In the first Spiderman, the villain is pretty lame. He has to be because Spiderman isn't very good yet. But to go from Thanos to some lame villain in FFH doesn't really work for me.
-
I didn't see it but it scored much higher with critics than audiences IIRC. I saw Frozen 2 and Neighborhood last week. I liked both, though I think Neighborhood is being overrated quite a bit. Some really hokey stuff in there, but Hanks put together a really great performance. Hoping to see Knives Out this week.
-
I never even picked HOC up after the Spacey stuff. It had gone on a season too long anyway before that point in my opinion.
-
Has Barry been mentioned here? Absolutely love that show. Bill Hader is awesome. I watched Season 1 in one Saturday night.
-
Yelich could win 3 MVPs and if all these guys materialize to being decent players there will still be plenty of people saying we got robbed because Yelich will be washed up by then or then playing some place else and they won't care how good he was. -
I realize I'm responding to a post that's like two years old, but I don't find this really hard to rationalize. It's personally not really my thing, but if you love actually playing that much, I can't imagine anything better than getting to do so in a real facility with a bunch of actual old players from your favorite team. For $4700 or whatever and everything that's included it sounds like an extremely reasonable deal, and it's better than late Jan/early Feb in Milwaukee. Sure it's expensive, but plausible for something that sounds like it could be a helluva lot of fun for the right person.

Dubon to SF for Pomeranz and Black
OldSchoolSnapper replied to torts's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
I really couldn't care less because I don't think Dubon is going to do a thing in the majors. -
The Springsteen one, from what I gathered, wasn't quite the same ilk. It was more Borat going to find Pamela Anderson type thing than really being about Bruce Springsteen. But yeah, probably, since their budgets aren't terribly high and they draw decently well.
-
Saw the trailer for the Springsteen fan movie thing and thought it looked kinda funny. Nice to see a semi original idea. Blinded by the Light I think it's called.
-
Ok? It wasn't an attack. I was just saying that I thought it was good. Cinemascore isn't a publication. It's an aggregate that measures audience reaction which is why I mentioned it. It got an A, which is fairly uncommon although so did Shaft.
