if we didn't comment?

That said, I have no idea what SLING TV is and I don't think I'll bother to look it up.

.. SLING was built in free with my DISH receiver. Then DISH changed it so SLING had to be bought separately and they quit updating my top of the line receiver. Dish talked me into JOEY which is the WORSE receiver EVER. So Im sure the ads on SLING are as bad as they ever were. Im looking at Direct TV to get away from the Joey nightmare.

but I have Sling and I don’t recall ever seeing an ad! WTH?

My most unfavorite stuuuuuuuuuupid ad is the Applebee’s ad with the woman singing Celine Dion’s “It’s All Coming Back To Me” song to her baby back ribs. It’s embarrassing and oh so annoying.
