Not to put words in Joe's mouth, but I think his point is that he'd rather 
subscribe to MLB.tv than subscribe to cable, but he has to subscribe to cable 
in order to see all the Cubs games because they're not available on MLB.tv in 
Chicago.

Guess I'm somewhat of an oddity here in that I feel that I watch enough of both 
sports and non-sports programming that it makes my DirecTV subscription 
perfectly worthwhile.
