Dish network saved my Sunday’s

Dish network saved my Sunday’s

The Dishnetwork dvr saved me from the constant fights with my wife on Sunday over football. Every week I get the “honey do” list from her on Friday and then by Sunday it’s the “get you but out of the chair or else list”. After working hard all week I want to watch some Sunday football and relax. More than the relaxation it’s the enjoyment of actually seeing the games that I really miss when im forced to do play “home improvement”.

So she really threw me a curveball one Friday when she told me “ You can watch all the games you want this weekend, college, pro, baseball, everything. And I won’t bother you at all while you watching them.”

So going to turn on the TV on Friday night I notice that there is a new Dish Network remote control and a different receiver box. On the coffee table is a user manual for the Dish 522 DVR. I figure out that DVR means digital video recorder and that its basically Tivo. So I started playing around with the system. I find that I can record shows or entire series right off the program guide. And then I also see that I can rewind and pause live TV.

I then look in the scheduled recordings and see that all the games that weekend show up.

Now its all starting to make sense. My wife had recorded everything so that I can see all the games without the interruptions of commercials, time outs etc. I played along to see how Saturday went. We ended up shopping and going to dinner and when I got home she turned on the TV and said she had a surprise and turned on the Florida State game which had been over for 2 hours. I then watched the whole game in 40 minutes!!

On Sunday we made the trip to Lowes and by the time I did all my chores it was 8pm. At that point from 8-10 pm I was able to watch 3 NFL games with out missing any action and watching plenty of replays!

I don’t know how I lived without the DISH DVR!
