I wonder how long it will be before I can get fast internet (fast enough to stream live sporting events) out in the sticks. |

Really brum? Did Vick lead any of his teams to the national title game and win a national title? Did Vick win a Heisman trophy? Or am I missing something? He didn't win those because he's black? Explain. |

Actually the Netflix is definitely more than $10 now.... I had the same service and canceled once Netflix spiked 60%!! |

Where abouts in the sticks are you? Believe it or not, slowly but surely they're expanding high speed further into Mt.Vernon (dial-up areas). There's rumored to be a 4G tower built soon too, but I'll believe it when I see it. |

Actually, Netflix split. You can get streaming for 7.99 or DVDs in the mail for 7.99 or both for 16. |

I wonder if that has anything to do with the 1,000,000 customers they lost within a matter of 2 months. I had the streaming service and loved it for the shows. The movie selection is alright.. could be much better. They should have done away with the DVD service and invested all their money into what's actually in, which is streaming. Also they're about to lose Starz, which unarguably puts out Netflix most well-known movies. They'll take another huge hit after this takes place. Loved the service... then they got greedy. Kapoot. Competition (Redbox and soon Blockbuster streaming) is only making it worse for them. |

That's exactly what I do (minus xbox live). I can watch every single show, without commercials, that people with TV can and I watch every sporting event live (with great quality). We figured out how to use our flatscreen as a second monitor so there's really no logical reason to pay an extra 70-80 for cable service. br |

Dude, Does Mt. Vernon even have 3G? The cost of rolling out a 4G tower FAR exceeds the number of subscribers it would serve in that area. There are major metro areas that still don't have 4G LTE (Indy JUST got it) -- and even then it's only by one carrier. Don't get your hopes up. As far them expanding broadband. Yes, it's happening, but the bandwidth probably won't be that great. Still better than dial-up though. |

The guy picked last in gym class

I was unaware that national titles and Heisman trophies were given out at the pro level. School is now in session. 17 quarterbacks have won a Heisman since 1971. The total number of Superbowls they have been in is.....ZERO. I can only go back as far as 1983, but the quarterbacks on the national championship teams are Bernie Kosar, Robbie Bosco, Jamelle Holloway, John Schaffer, Steve Walsh, Tony Rice, Craig Erickson, Darian Hagen, Shawn Jones, Gino Toretta, Billy Joe Hobert, Charlie Ward, Tommy Frazier (twice), Danny Wuerffel, Brian Griese, Scott Frost, Tee Martin, Chris Weinke, Josh Heupel, Ken Dorsey, Craig Krenzel, Matt Mauck, Matt Leinert (twice), Vince Young, Chris Leak, Matt Flynn, Tim Tebow, Greg McElroy, and Cam Newton. The total number of Superbowls they have been in is.....ZERO. Now, in terms of the statement that 'Vick didn't win because he was black'....reading comprehension is a skill. My statement is that Vick is a running quarterback who can has a big arm and is okay at reading defenses; Tim Tebow is a running quarterback with a funky delivery and no arm who can't read defenses.....now you tell me why you are suggesting that Tim Tebow is better. Entertain me. |

LOL. I think you know what I mean....have never actually been a quarterback in a Superbowl. Standing on the sidelines and clapping for Rodgers doesn't count. |

Absolutely not. Crean's FF does not make him more likely to win a Superbowl. |
