You have to add the sports package where you get all the FS channels. It is an extra fee.

Doesn't make sense either... Down here, I can pay the $10 a month to have all of them... Yet everyone except Florida FS is blacked out for every single game. Pointless

If he added the FSN to his package, the channel is 430. BTN is 439.

Thanks. I don't think he wanted to add a sports package but it looks like he will have to. He left Comcast because of price but he will probably be righ back to the same price now

Yes?

I live where I live for a lot of reasons. One of those is that I prefer Macomb County over Oakland County.

How does the county factor into your decision though (plus you're in Wayne right now)? Also perhaps you get a WT point with Macomb > Oakland

[GF-22a]

Oakland has high taxes...

So unless you live in Oakland County, you're white trash?

Oakland county has some of the highest property tax rates in the state. The property values are over-inflated just because of the ZIP code. Dollar for dollar you can get more in just about any other county than you can in Oakland (outside of Pontiac, Oak Park and Southfield).

I can get more house with more land for less in someplace like Shelby Township, Washington Township, or Macomb Township than I can in Oakland County any day.

I'm in Macomb County. When house hunting recently,I ruled out pretty much any city in Oakland County because of taxes and home prices/versus size. I also hate yuppies. They are worse than WT, IMO.

I'm mainly here because I grew up on this side of town/friends/family/etc.

Macomb County isn't white trash. It's north of I-94.

When Hammtramack is your ideal place to live...

Don't be an idiot. You know the context of that conversation.

[ACfromtheD]

Unless the context was that you hate Karl and I missed the joke the point remains about your view on where the best place to live is.

[Willie Mays Hayes]

I stand by that hamtramck would be a good place to live if you are a single 22-23 year old male that works downtown.

I wouldn't live there now but I still like hanging out down there sometimes.

There is definitely some Macomb County WT too. This is including but not limited to: overuse of cologne/perfume, tattoos & mullets (especially closer to the lake), guys fixing up cars in the backyard, and East side girls and the guido culture
