Would any DirecTV Superfan customers be willing to help me?

BlueHurricane : 10/14/2009 11:18 am
I have Comcast and can not get DirecTV Superfan on my iPhone. Would any BBi member allow me to use their Superfan account so I can watch the game on my iphone this weekend? I would be willing to pay you for the favor. I am dreading the fact my kid has a baseball tournament that I am going to be stuck at, and the semi finals are at 12:15 Sunday. It would break his heart if I miss it and I can't bring myself to do that to him but these huge games are few and far between and it I do not want to miss it. Last time he had a baseball tourney I tried the DVR thing and the whole frigging time I overheard people talking about the Giants spanking the Bucs. Anybody that may want to help can email me at acfbob@comcast.net. Again I would be willing to pay you for the favor.

I guess the world is so full of assholes

some peoples first reaction is to overlook the fact that someone would just ask for a generous favor and be willing to pay for it. How could that be????? It has to be a scam. This guy wants to bombard my DirecTV account with porn or something. Fuck!
Any luck so far?

No...

You're talking about your son playing a game while you are glued to the iPhone, while it would "break his heart" for you not to be there, but being there and not paying attention to the game is fine.

Watch the game, DVR it, if you hear spoilers, oh well. It's week 6.
yep it's a shitty place

where people won't share personal information with complete fucking strangers. What a fucking joke this site is, filled with a bunch of imgrates!

I'm a stranger on the internet  
vibe4giants : 10/14/2009 12:03 pm : link
whhhhhhhhhhhhyyyyyyyy won't people give me private information?

So now they're '16 year old men'? When you were trying to manipulate people about your poor heartbroken boy, you left that out.

Reflect. Maybe it's not everyone else who has the problem. Maybe you need to act like a grown man and accept missing the game because you have larger responsibilities, and they can't be addressed for you by strangers on a message board.
Thanks for the piece of parental guidance  
BlueHurricane : 10/14/2009 12:08 pm : link
But I will stick to doing things the way I have been doing it. Having a kid who is in the top 5% of his class and also plays on one of the top baseball teams in the tri-state area and is a state place winning wrestler is enough for me to know I have done a decent job so far.

Again this thread really did not need to derail like this as it is obvious at least a couple of BBi members realize I was not asking for anyone to cut off a fucking toe.

Finally if there is anyone who can grasp the concept of what I am asking for without having to go into over analyzing things my e-mail address is posted above.

Thank you.

BBI is in a weird mood today.

Can't you just listen to the radio feed on your Iphone and just watch when you get home?
margi, in a weird mood?

why don't you give him your DTV login information?

That is what I plan on doing but I had thought this was an alternative. Guess I was wrong LOL
If it wre me, I would decide which is more important and then say.....

"No son, you are more important to me than the Giants. I'll go to your game and I'll also tape the Giants/Saints game and we'll watch it together after your game."

Clued me into the fact that I can listen to the game on the iPhone, I hadn't even thought of that until now.

Now that the Mets season is dead you can listen to the game streamed to the iPhone on WFAN.

Thanks again for hooking me up with your DirecTV account last week so I could see the Radier game at that wedding.
Very odd

I have been to all 73 of his games this year. He knows he is important to me. He is playing at least 5 this weekend and I will be at all of them.

This is really odd. People who spend time on a Giants message board during a large part of their day have a hard time wrapping their heads around the fact another Giants fan want to be sure he does not miss a game.

Don't let them get to you.

Personally, I'm just glad I learned something out of this thread.
YAJ the original poster  
kiwi : 10/14/2009 12:24 pm : link
was innocently asking if he could watch the Giants game.

He wasn't forcing anyone to give him his/her DTV login/password.

You went from being sarcastic to angry. Relax.

There are people that are willing to give help him out had they had DTV. And the OP was asking politely, until you got to his head.

Didn't you say you can DVR the game? How would you miss it?

that was only a small part of my commentary. My main point, which was made on this same topic last week when someone else asked for the same thing, is that you shouldn't be asking for/expecting to get this from anyone as it gives you access to someone's personal account information. Do you really expect a complete stranger to do that for you?

YAJ2112 : 10/14/2009 12:27 pm : link
if you think I'm angry, you are reading way too much tone into my posts.
Filthy I DVR'ed the Bucs game last tournament  
BlueHurricane : 10/14/2009 12:28 pm : link
and tried to get home without knowing the score but these tournaments are huge and people are all over the place talking about the NFL. I did not care about that one so much because it was....... The Bucs and they suck.

If I DVR this one I will just listen to it while I am there. I just think it is really cool you could watch a game on the iPhone. Just sucks that I do not have DirecTV.
Well fine, but no need  
kiwi : 10/14/2009 12:29 pm : link
to trash him for this long. Just ignore him if you don't want to give your personal information that a few are willing to give him and trust.

Expect it? No

Think it is a possibility someone may realize my intentions are genuine and not malicious? Yes

Actually, I've done it for two BBI'ers who were overseas to use it. No problems.

Why so angry, man?

don't do it.
He just wants your email address so he can send you pictures of himself.

They're not nice pictures.



The bucs game - Slingbox  
McLovin28 : 10/14/2009 12:40 pm : link
I was at the Bucs game. Trust me you didn't miss much. The game was over one minute into the second quarter. Why don't you get a Slingbox and watch it on your iPhone that way. It sounds like you'll use it a lot.

dorgan : 10/14/2009 12:49 pm : link
the hell it doesn't.

I have missed huge chunks of two games this year because I had to watch them on a web stream.

I canceled the Sunday Ticket on a point of principle, and it's proven to be a clear case of cutting of my nose to spite my face.

There are 2 f's in off, you lazy old fuck...
