    Let me rephrase, RAW live will only be available for people that are paying for USA network through some kinda of service (cable, Hululive, Sling, etc). You can get the replay of it on Peacock, I'm assuming a day or so later.

    So you still need cable if you want RAW. That being said, if you're a Comcast internet customer, you can order a free Flex device from them and that gives you the $4.99/month Peacock service for free. I ordered one and didn't even unpack it and still got Peacock for free. Also, if you have...

    Car insurance - Pay per mile

    The big guys offer it too. I ran the numbers with my Allstate agent and unless you hardly drive at all the savings is pretty minimal. I also don't want to be computing in my head every time I take the car out, how much this trip is costing me.

    He had issues with vertigo last year and a bunch of concussions. He could have been having issues with that again. Or just realized he didn't want to be a backup on a new team after spending his entire career with the Hawks.

    The Flight Attendant

    She thought there were too many characters to keep up with and the mind sequences were confusing. It's a show you actually have to watch to keep up with and she's normally on her phone watching TV, so that could have been it.

    We're almost done with the first season and it's really good. Ted's optimism is funny and doesn't get old. And the soccer isn't the main story so if you don't give a damn about it, that's fine.

    Chapter 7 Bankruptcy & Renting Issues

    I would double check the actual savings. Because car loans are shorter terms, they're nowhere near as sensitive to rate changes as mortgages are. The refi may only save you $10 or $20 a month. Then it's up to you if it's worth the time and/or effort.

    It's nuts that two positive PED tests isn't enough for the Mets to be able to void the last two years of his contract. I get that he loses this year but if you're paying a guy for his stats when he's juiced, you're not getting the value you should be getting when they come back. Look at guys...

    He was either complicit or oblivious. Either way he doesn't deserve the job. That being said, there's no way the Astros don't settle as discovery/trial will be real bad press for them and MLB.

    Any pulls for a home loan within a short period only count once against your credit. So while it's annoying, it doesn't hurt you.
