I can't remember if that whole merger thing ever went through...

On edit - Pardon me, I can't keep track of all those things!

3. But I love DirecTv!!!!!

And I've had it since 1999, way before he bought it.

Should I feel guilty? I had to buy all the receivers and stuff back in those days.

5. NFL Ticket is the deal killer

Have to subscribe to Sunday Ticket - wife has to see the Packers since we live in the Chicago market.
