    Auto Racing 2024

    Palou takes the Indy Grand Prix. Competition up front wasn't all too competitive. Power' pit crew got him in front of Lungaard for second. Colton Herta proved resolve, finiahing in the top 10 after starting 24th. Only one yellow in the entire race, so the action was nonstop, and pitting gimmicks...

    Auto Racing 2024

    It is an incredible rating for race car driving for an F1 race of little consequence. Daytona and Indy beat it, but that is probably it.

    EchoStar/Dish raises doubts about 'ability to continue as a going concern'

    I couldn't imagine being vegan. Pescatarian is about as good as I can manage.

    EchoStar/Dish raises doubts about 'ability to continue as a going concern'

    I've never heard a vegetarian say that. I did try to return a veggie burger at the Burger Priest in Ontario because it was too good to be a veggie burger, but it was.

    EchoStar/Dish raises doubts about 'ability to continue as a going concern'

    I think the no revenue from this investment could be a bigger issue. I mean, yeah, the debt is bad, but if you have revenue, you generally get more options for rolling the debt. Dish's SEC filing stopped just short of saying they were going to need to talk to "Tony at the corner" about a loan...

    EchoStar/Dish raises doubts about 'ability to continue as a going concern'

    Of course, if Dish isn't going to make money with their 5G system, it doesn't matter if they've deployed their service to 105% of the US population. Admittedly, I just made this one up. :D

    HBO Max/Discovery+ Merger

    ...I smell insolvency and vultures picking the bones.

    How things have changed

    I'd say the big contributor at this point will be the transition of broadcasting content away from cable/sat. Some sports programming was shown only on cable/sat channels or you need a subscription to sat/cable to gain access to the sports online. With this transitioning to flat out simulcast...

    HBO Max/Discovery+ Merger

    $515 million in interest for one quarter, and they have $300ish million in hand? I smell a merger.

    EchoStar/Dish raises doubts about 'ability to continue as a going concern'

    My general rule is when Scott pours out the gasoline and torches the web board on fire, that is the time to panic on Dish. But according to Dish's SEC filings, not some financial guru, but what Dish itself is saying, things are not looking great. Indeed, $16 a share is still not that bad...

    EchoStar/Dish raises doubts about 'ability to continue as a going concern'

    What is "That doesn't sound good?" Regarding 5G however: Well, that sounds better. But if they don't start making huge in-roads to monetizing that, it won't matter. I think one thing Dish needs to do is hire a competent advertiser. The one thing I wonder, they have proven the speed, but do...

    Auto Racing 2024

    That is quite something. Personally F1 is boring as all heck, but it is carrying better than Indycar ever does, except probably the Indy 500. This weekend: WEC is in Spa IMSA are in Laguna Seca Indycar are Grand Prixing it at Indy. Kyle Larson's tests at Indy for the 500 have reportedly been...

    Please DISH get METV back!

    I always thought of New Haven being the dividing line between Boston and NYC or the end of the "suburbs" of NYC.

    Please DISH get METV back!

    It is a small time channel. The odd thing is, they don't have MeTV. That'd be channel 19 (big one) and 6 (?). Apparently I get 35 with good strength and they've changed what they carry... again... so I need to add it to the channel list.
