" Mack: If you want them to quit sending you "junk mail" then all you need to do is go in to a local office, they will flag your account as no soliciting and that's that. You gotta quit complaining if your not willing to rectify the situation. "

" By the way,Big Ten Network wanted this available at the basic levels of programming and TW and Charter wanted to force all you basic users to upgrade to the next tiering.

" Cable TV has even more advertising than network TV. I don't see how anybody can stand to watch it. Wish they would stop sending all the junk mail too, a lot of it I mark 'return to sender'. "

" I swear nothing in this world makes anyone happy anymore. You whine about not having it. You whine about getting it. You finally get your way and complain about the manner it was provided to you. Grow up and unplug. I'm sorry life isn't always fair to the tv watchers in this world. This is a nice gauge of our society though. It tells me we're a sad species that requires something like this to make us happy. "

" I used to truly enjoy watching the games tape delayed on Public TV. With Big 10 Network exclusivity, that has gone away. My dad and I (who watch over-the-air tv) are stuck watching the Big 12. I used to attend 3-4 UW football games per year. Now I get to only one. "

" Our tax dollars fund the universities, and yet we will be paying extra to watch Big Ten games. Does anyone see the blatant unfairness of this arrangement? "
