I was. Offer rescinded.

I knew it.  

Now I'm a bit drunk, but I'm not offering up jack ****.  Deal with it.

Consider it dealt with.

On what authority?

Bynum?

On an unrelated note, I got rid of cable and built a pretty sweet streaming media center that is essentially giving me more content, sweeter interactivity while paying 80 less dollars a month.  I don't know that anyone around here gets geeked out about that sort of stuff though.

I would discourage people from doing this.

No Customer Support!

That's pretty awesome, actually.

Dude, you hooked up your internet capable TV to your Brazzers site.  I wouldn't call that a streaming media center.

Have a Mac Mini upstairs that is using a few different applications to download and sort everything I would ever watch shows-wise (although I also have Hulu Plus).  Most of it is stored on my router/external drive.  I access that through an application that also houses some programs that let me pull live streams of common TV stations.  This gets mirrored to the Apple TV downstairs.  It is all controlled by my iPhone or iPad which serve as a remote for everything.

It is pretty sweet.  If I feel like using the computer upstairs, I can mirror at the application level or use the native features on the Apple TV.  NFL games that I want to watch that aren't on the regular channels are a challenge as I haven't found a way to stream NFL Redzone yet.

All this will change dramatically if the Apple TV 3 ever gets jailbroken.

Pretty nerdy I know...  but it is a post.

that's bullshit, I was going to buy you a beer with $3.25 of it too.

That's mighty nice of you.  Were you going to paypal it to me?

what can I say, I'm just that type of person.
