interesting…can’t say i disagree, maybe a day off will do him some good

Wash said

He would have gotten the day off regardless…unless he busted out of his slump yesterday.

Manager Ron Washington said he wanted to give Chris Davis a break for today, so Davis is not in the lineup. Washington said Davis was at the park to get in some early work with Rudy Jaramillo. Washington said Davis is swinging a little late as pitchers are getting him out more on fastballs than breaking balls.

“It’s just a break for today,” Washington said. “It gives him a chance to gather himself after six games.”

Question

Ok so here is the problem

*I am in FTW
*I have cable that doesnt have My27(TCU Cable)
*My off air antenna is giving me shitty picture and scrambled sound

How can I watch this game clearly?

Is it on TV ants or anything?

This is our year.

You're going to get that in the dorms

I lived in the dorms for two years (Milton and Foster) and you will get those horrible pictures and horrible sound. Its not the fault of your tv, its the fault of the TCU Cable. I am though surprise you can’t get My27. When I was there, I had it. Weird, I guess I got out of the dorms at the right time.

Just go over to Buffalo Bros or Fuzzy’s or jump on Hulen to Buffalo Wild Wings to watch the ballgame. They always have it on at those places

it is now all locals except my 27, and a lot of “digital” channels but they have only minimally better picture. Supposedly next year we are getting a bunch of HD’s, which would be nice.

It was funny

When I walked around campus my freshman and sophomore year and saw kids buying HDTVs to try to get the picture better on their tv, since it was horrible at the time. They would spend hundreds and thousands of dollars to try and fix this, yet it did nothing to change it. Me, on the other hand, just brought a hundred dollar tv that sucked but it had the same picture as everyone else

I was there 3 years

I would’ve flipped if I didn’t get kdfi. Is it because they moved it to the digital channel? Their cable sucked horribly when they started expanding the dorms, too many splits I guess
