    Comcast / Xfinity is a soul-less organization that operates similar to viral borg model where no one single member has all the answers and all work mindlessly and unknowingly towards collectively causing human suffering.

    Alas, no more.

    and so the transition begins to the new era of root as the painful burden slides off of the Houston community's shoulders in a near equivalency to T-Mac slowly riding Shawn Bradley's back down to the ground after a demoralizing and what-is-my-life-worth-reflection posterization dunk that sucks the gravity out of the building.

    Welcome root.

    So if I don't have NBA TV (but I have Comcast), I can't watch the Thunder game on Sunday?

    Fitting that our last csn game is the 76ers, so we can watch their player Takashet Onnorfanz.

    I'm going to the game on Friday anyways! I shall miss the Rockets no more.

    Well I never missed them, but listening on the radio and following on ESPN game cast just wasn't as fulfilling.
