Good XM Radio Discount in mail today - after I canceled

    Since I haven't been driving my '04 Accord much, I let the XM lapse
    after the free 3 months. XM has sent me 5 or 6 letters, trying to get
    me to sign up again at the standard $10 a month. No deal.

    Now, 2 1/2 months after I discontinued the service, they've finally
    sent me a decent offer:

    One year for $60. (half price)
    Three months for $6 a month. (40% off)
    Or, pay list price of $10 a month and get crappy travel coupons.

    So, if you're ambivalent about keeping XM, you'll apparently get it a
    lot cheaper if you cancel and wait them out.

    You think the world revolves around sports? It doesn't. If YOU like
    NFL, great. Why don't YOU buy Sirius. But let the rest of the world
    figure it out on their own.

    Crawl back in your hole, asshole. And sit there with the huge bag of
    chips and sit like a lump and watch football. That way you're not
    bothering anyone else.

    Not to mention that the receiver is 3 times the size of the old Delphi
    SkyFi, which of course has been superceded by the new Delphi Roady,
    which is much smaller still.

    The Sirius receiver is a friggin' brick. I can't imagine mounting that
    thing anywhere in my car.

    Don't confused Dr. Pimp Daddy with facts. In his world, everyone wants
    to listen to NFL games.

    Facts only get in his way.

    Whoopee! (false enthusiasm)....I am not much into LISTENING to football
    games.I would rather WATCH them on TV if I am going to peruse them via
    the media.To me,listening to a football game is akin to watching
    GOLF,which is not all that interesting.Not much incentive there to
    switch satellite radio services,at least where I am concerned.

    Depends on who's calling the game. All right, can we get Sirius about Hondas
    again, please?

    Who cares.... there are MILLIONS that would love to listen to every NFL game
    every single weekend. Whether it be taxi drivers, truckers, delivery drivers,
    who are on the road on weekends.

    I would definately sign up, since I like to bet on them and listen to updates
    in my car. Too much smoke and yelling in sportsbooks.

    Considering NFL is the highest rated show in the WORLD... um, yes.

    Only girls and faggots hate NFL... not sure which category you fit.

    Oh please, I doubt any installer would bother installing XM or Sirius in a 20
    year old junk Civic. If they did, it'd be worth more than the car itself.

    I have been hearing that about sirius "won't be around in a year" for the
    past 18 months. I have sirius and love it(the nfl is a nice addition). If
    Sirius goes out of business tomorrow(which I certainly am not worried
    about), it would have definitely been worth the money(equipment cost was a
    whopping $89).

    Now that I have had satellite for well over a year, I couldn't imagine going
    without it.

    To me, the nfl is a nice addition to Sirius(which I have), more because of
    Sirius' nfl channel which is essentially sports talk for the NFL than the
    actual games themselves.

    They have a very high cash burn rate, low subs and lag market leader XM.
    They'll probably be around in a year, but for investors, they're not a
    good play - consumers maybe, but not investors...

    What section of the White Pages is "Elmo_Shagnasty" found under? Same section
    as Ben Dover and Dick Buttfuk?
