'Cause I don't have cable.  The only way I can watch my 
beloved-but-woebegone Pittsburgh Steelers is by subscribing to the NFL 
Sunday Ticket(TM), availabled only on DirecTV(TM).

Besides, not using cable keeps me from supporting another company that 
everybody loves to hate.  So I suppose it's a wash.

Oh, and update.  The wifey says that they forgot to actually place the 
new order, so the five-business-days starts again, right now (Friday, 
one week later).  She thinks they might expedite, so we could be back 
online as soon as next Tuesday.  Woo-hoo!  Hang on, gotta disconnect, I 
think someone wants to call me.
