    Moving back near Buff!

    Was born in Buffalo but I haven't been back in 20 years.

    Moving to Trenton, ON only 3-4 hours away. Maybe able to finally catch a Bills game.

    Only problem is no DirecTV in Canada.

    What is up with that?

    Why would you move to Canada, eh?

      Wife's getting a promotion.

      I'm gonna be a stay at home chef.

      At least the house is on a golf course.

            Quincy, Illinois

            Miserable place.

              Love your signature, Kramer. So true.
              Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?

                Absolutely true!

                This is the worst thing about moving to Canada.

                If I want to see a great canadian doctor, I'll have to go to the US!

                Big gov. kills ambition and creativity.

                This is also the reason I will not be able to get DirecTV, because of Canadian censorship.

                  Why can't you buy the system in US and set it up in Canada. If you have family in US, use their address for the signup.

                    I think you are in luck with the Direct TV- are you referring to the NFL ticket?

                    I beleive I saw D post once that in Canada, the Direct Ticket for the NFL is on his digital cable.

                      Direct TV cannot be used legally in Canada. I want american stations, not the bs canadian stuff. Sunday ticket can be bought on cable but not ESPN college fb. Also no ESPN.

                            Easy guys.... it is so much better here in Canada, but we dont need to get into that..... im pretty sure some companys offer ESPN .... Ive watched ESPN at alot of different houses (if it was legal or not im not sure)
                            but TSN is like the same as ESPN anyway u get almost all the same stuff...... Personally I think TSN is better from what ive seen,...... ESPN only talks about Basketball and Football all the time..... TSN talks about hockey and football all the time..... and we all no Hockey is soooooo much better then basketball.... and u still get shows like PTI, sunday night football etc

                            I live 2 hrs from the Raplh and I can get WGR so i,m happy right where i am

                              A lot of people in Canada have illegal DirecTV dishes. I have one, the only problem is the cards have been down for about 3 or 4 months now. You can always get an illegal Dish Network dish. If you're determined to get US stations you really shouldn't have any trouble.
