    even with dwight I don't know how much we move up from 18th in attendance if we have no broadcasting. dallas is 2nd and they have the same freaking demographic we do. there's too much potential being wasted here.

    Well I will definitely go to more games this year. I hate TV and did not have it for a year. This upcoming year AT&T actually made it cheaper for me to have tv than to get Internet alone, so I've basically got one year to figure out a cheaper Internet only service while my tv shows basic cable that I will not be watching.

    Conversely I live a 15m bike ride from Toyota center and will gladly shell out dough for nosebleed seats over streaming them on my comp, just so long as I have free time (I work over 70hrs most weeks). I'm gonna go to as many games as I can this year, our most anticipated one since we acquired Barkley (sure 2009 had a lot of hype, but TMac ended that quickly. Plus, 2009 Ron Artest is NOT 2013 Dwight).

    What model do you have? I'm thinking of eliminating cable. Hows you roku experience overall?

    I live in Lufkin, 120 miles away and Rocket games are blacked out. Can't even watch them on replay.
