Why Tiered Broadband is a Wonderful Thing and ASIVS

Jun 5th 2008 9:28AM (Blog Maverick)
Tuff luck buddy. You bought your car to go to work in, I bough mine for leisurely activities. We both are paying the same money for the same car to use as we see fit. (no i am not a bit torrent user and I have a closet full of cd's and dvds.) What about those of use who rent movie downloads from netflix or itunes on my apple tv? Because I am not using my bandwidth for business I have less of a reason to be on the internet?

How to Make US Broadband Competitive - Quickly and Cheaply

You are assuming the cable providers would not try and use the extra content to add other tiers of programing they could charge you for or use it for more video on demand content.

Should the NBA Raise the Age Limit ?

Apr 9th 2008 4:42PM (Blog Maverick)
I disagree and here is why. Entertainment. Entertainers are paid based on their skills. Dribbling a basketball does not require maturity or an education. Painting a picture, being able to act or sing do not require maturity or education. Now that is my simple argument against having an age requirement to play x professional sport, not that I would think it would be wrong to do so just that I don't agree. Now if you want to simply say most 17, 18, 19 year old kids are not mature enough to handle the responsibilities that come along with the fame and fortune I would agree. Would you in your right mind hand a rifle to a 17 year old kid and say I want you to go to every house on this street and find this guy and bring him back here, BUT you cant shoot at anybody who does not shoot at your first no matter how many of them there are and how angry they look. Personally I would not put a kid in that situation BUT it is done and there is a process in place to help those kids mature and some what handle the situation. So, when is the NBA going to come up with a boot camp that will help a young exceptionally talented person mature, learn how to deal with the situations they will inevitably be put in and improve their skills on the court? After all they are expected to adhere to dress codes and codes of conducts so as not to tarnish the image and reputation of the NBA. So NBA (or all professional institutions that profit from the talent of youngsters) take more responsibility for the position you are putting these youngsters in.

I'm in Irving, no go on the new channels. Fios is available in my area so I know it has nothing to do with competition on where they throw they switch. Arent Dallas, Richardson, Plano, and Mesquite on the a/b cable system still?
