I pay $70/mo for YouTube TV. Is your cable tv cheaper than that? And does it include unlimited DVR? And you can watch on your phone, computer, and TV (at the same time if you want)? And you can watch it just as easily when you're traveling? my directv isn't but I know my setup/needs aren't comparab...

Wide right. Brutal. I was confident that if that went in, the Chiefs were scoring anyways. this is kinda where I was at. as soon as the third down pass fell incomplete - with the time on the clock and the situation, I figured the Chiefs were getting a field goal to win if not a TD this is controver...

Re: Home Repairs

the easiest fix in this case is that your sump isn't working and you just need to replace it and that solves the issue. I hope that's the play, anyway.

does your current one have a backup system/battery backup? it'd be rare if both pumps had failed if so.
