Default Sunday Ticket Subscribers

well I had to call those demons at directv yesterday and the rep asked me if I wanted the super fan HD package w/ the sunday ticket, I explained to them that no way in hell would I pay $99 for something that was free last year, well after that exchange of words the rep then tells me that if you were a sunday ticket subscriber last year then you could get the super fan HD package for $49...

I'm not a Sunday Ticket subscriber, because living in Albuquerque and Denver, the Broncos are always the game on TV, but that is so weak, charging extra for HD.

The prices go up every year for the Package & my BIGGEST COMPLAINT is that the last 2 years the afternoon games IE BRONCO game starts have been blacked out due to the national games going late. I missed majority of 1st quarter of 3 Bronco games last year due to this, the freaking Alanta game was 14 0 denver before I got to see the D crumble & give up the lead. I was sooooo pissed....

$199 + $49 for the "Suckerfan" package=PASS

Even at the reduced rate for the HD, I'm still not buying. Yeah, I know I'm only hurting myself but I gotta take a stand somewhere.
