It was still a breakdown, just a breakdown of the internet company's fuck up. I enjoyed it, although I didn't enjoy the fact that they fucked up your internet. Keep us posted on what happens with cox.

We played a great road game, meaning we did all the small things to hang on the road even if the offense isn't clicking. We were looking to get to the line to slow Denvers momentum, rebounded great and generally just made denver uncomfortable. I loved seeing Joker give TJD some love after the game, I think the rook kind of earned some respect, he battled Jokic very admirably

Alch. We still got to hear your amazing voice. That’s more important than the video. About the game. Seems AG’s confidence is high and he is really leaning into his athleticism. He was a problem and Saric wasn’t able to keep up. There are gonna be some hard matchups for Dario.

Alch- it’s infuriating what Cox did to you. Once your service is restored, you may just want to move on and drop it. But, if you decide you need some restitution, apology, accountability or whatever, you can file an “ Informal Complaint” online with the FCC. They are the agency that regulates ISP’s. Their website, (fcc.gov) actually encourages filing a complaint and make it easy to do online. Loved meeting your big old pooch. Agree with your ‘blurry’ analysis. I was proud of their effort and grit.

Alc, check the blackout rules on YT TVfor when the Warriors come to Phoenix. I live in LA and am denied games when they are here. Maybe if it's national TV then you do get it bc the blackout is only with local TV stations. But it's an issue. And by the way it shouldn't be an issue given how much YT plus the pass costs

I saw tweets saying oh Wiggins defense was better in this game. NO SHIT. So the game where Draymond and GP2 were unavailable was when Wiggins decided to wake up from his slumber.
And how amazing is that both Draymond and GP2 were unavailable for this game of all games........................
I'm not mad at Wiggins. It's just those tweets are annoying & dumb.
Alc, you're a hardworking guy and what you've accomplished is impressive. Trying to figure it all out on your own while being a family man. Not easy. Always rooting for you Alc.

I have never heard of an intervener company just cutting a customer's literal cable to try and improve the bandwidth of their other customers and even without warning. They can throttle your internet speed before they resort to that. They owe you money for the downtime. Also, of all people I think you've earned the right to skip a game.
Ben
2023-11-09 23:22:11 +0000 UTC
Alc, don't sweat the situation. Shit happens. And it seems like right now you're in if it rains, it pours scenario. If the next 1-2 are missing, maybe just put out a thoughts observation or casual talk to replace it.
As for the situation itself, it's very fucking weird. I wonder what they did and if they're telling the truth because something seems extremely sketchy. I would turn into a Balkan male Karen if they pulled that shit for me.

Don't stress about getting the Denver game out Alch. You do so much and provide such rich content that I'm sure everyone can go without. Focus on yourself and getting what you need done. The victim mentality is tough, I think everyone goes through it in some form or another. The way I think through it is: the victim mindset is a passive one, it relies on me sitting back and asking 'why me?'. But what can I do to be proactive in resolving the problem. Once you know what's in your control you can actively take steps to move forward. Keep up the great work!

2023-11-09 23:00:30 +0000 UTC
Good thing KCP can’t guard Curry the entire series. He’d be gassed by G4. Warriors are the worst matchup for Denver because they have stoppers for everyone in there team. Dray/Loon - Jokic, Murray - GP2, Porter - Wiggins, Gordon - Klay. I like where they are with this roster

Sometimes we are victims. Wow when you started and talked about no wife next to you I thought this is gonna be painful, Thank God it wasn't. Paul was weird in the last two. Dude even shot a three! A three with Steph and klay on the court. When do we meet big dog?

Appreciate all that you do Alch, Yes we all love the breakdowns and your pride about how you work says a lot about you as a person but it's not the end of the world if you miss one for reasons largely out of your control. This more laid back conversation style can be a nice change up too. Pity I missed the game but not surprised or feeling bad about getting beat in a close one by the best team in the league.

All good Alch, life happens. Def worth doing a search for your address to see if there are any other internet providers in your area, but most of the time there only seems to be one...so yeah they got us by the balls. If it ends up that you can't get the game downloaded thru YTTV, I've watched NBA replays before on nba replay dot net.

That’s super common with any coax cable provider. It’s called ingress where your house is feeding back interference into the system. Usually it’s something simple like some some loose fittings and shit or some rat chews. Them cox boys are cold blooded af though if they just come and cut your shit instead of throwing on a filter though lmao

Fiber is best IMO if it is available. Cable internet is fast but as you've experienced they're crooks! And cable TV is dying in real time these days. I tried the T-Mobile 5G router and decided to stick with cable internet...for now. YouTubeTV is a great streaming service with unlimited storage (DVR). Carry on!

Have you considered 5G fixed wireless home Internet? There are no wires involved and I believe TMobile and Verizon offer this. The only caveat is that it's still relatively new so there's limited availability (depending on your location). Also, your internet expenses should definitely be a tax deduction considering how much you rely on it for making content.
Jimmy Ji
2023-11-09 19:16:25 +0000 UTC
Understandable, Alch, appreciate the explanation.
As an aside, one thing I hated during that game is the goddamn folksy catchphrases Mark Jones never stops using. Cooking with fish grease and in his bag etc. And it always seems like he's super willing to say "Steph was looking for a foul" but I don't ever really hear him say that for anyone else. I'd legit rather listen to JVG and Mark Jackson than Mark Jones.

2023-11-09 19:14:47 +0000 UTC
Another guy said it but starlink is probably the best option now if you can do it. Also depending on your morals there's always sketchy websites to download the game from haha. Regardless I think everyone would be more than happy if you talked about the game with no video footage on this one.

Paul Byun
2023-11-09 19:06:31 +0000 UTC
It's true that your usage can affect the bandwidth for your neighbors and vice-a-verse. Cable Internet is such a racket because the provider owns the physical coaxial lines, in this case Cox. Unfortunately, unless you have Fibre in your area it's the only viable option, and that's how they can pull this sort of BS.
I appreciate your commitment and good luck getting back online.

Your cable service provider is wild. You definitely need to be compensated. Working from home is more common than ever and for them to cut your service without notice directly affects your means of living.

Living in the foothills of the Sierras means I totally understand internet problems. After trying loads of terrestrial based services; ATT, Verizon, T-Mobile (work well at times but inconsistent) and Satellite based services like Hughes Net (way too much latency) I finally qualified for Starlink. So much more reliable and almost always fast. These ISP’s are getting sneaky with their data limits by throttling speed at certain levels of use. The answer for us in the foothills is Starlink with a T-Mobile Home Internet device as a primary backup and then an iPhone provisioned on Verizon for the break glass times. Do your homework before considering options in your area by talking to other users.

I went to the game last watched warm ups and Steph just looked off he was missing a-lot of shots he just makes in warm ups and I didn’t see that excitement probably just the end of the road trip. But overall the energy at Denver is crazy even if it is my first NBA game I don’t think many arenas are like it. Just felt like an off night for everyone Klay missing back to back free throws had me puzzled some no calls on Steph that he should get and 3 stupid turnovers in the first. But guess what we’ve already won half the road games we did last year Im excited for another championship season.

You're amazing Uncle Alch! No worries on the tech problems. You're doing a great job. That was the best Warriors loss in a while.

Straight up just CUT your service even though you’re a paying customer? I’d get it if they had to temporarily shut it down for maintenance or something, but from the sounds it they just said “fuck it” and literally cut you off without warning while you are still paying for the service even though you did nothing wrong. Were they just planning on leaving you with no service or follow-up EVER!? I don’t understand what the logic is there.
