If his goal was cash instead of owning the team. Considering he was not selling before this, I don't think it was his goal.

It's not like he was poor, living paycheck to paycheck, and now has 2 billion dollars.

Why do you think that the team is still worth what it was in 1981?

What did you think was going to happen? Did you expect the government or someone else to confiscate it? Or for no one to bid on the team?

I blame SGU for killing SF series too. Boy was that an awful show.

It would have been better to have just started a new SF universe than trying to trick fans (and then whining about those same fans) into thinking that this was going to be another Stargate like show - sure they used stargates, but that could have been substituted for any telaportation device. The biggest mistake is they started with characters that were in the same emotionally bitter and exhausted state as BSG, but without the years of buildup that BSG took to get the characters there.

This isn't capitalism. Otherwise, the USAF would be buying the cheapest or the best - not stuck on one foreign vendor.

My city (San Antonio) is pretty big but we do not have dozens of competition. For cable providers, we have Time Warner and Grande Communications (but Grande only services a few places in the city.)

The problem is, there are poor old people as well.

Why else would you want to be a liberal Hollywood actor, sports star, reporter, or politician?

Sounds like you have fallen in line to the "indoctrination" that you were speaking of. In fact, you seem to have surpassed it.

When downloading, I always get the SD stuff unless it is a scifi show. And hard drive space is cheap.

I do the same when deciding whether to purchase an bluray movie or dvd.

I can definently see the difference when contrasting the to, but if I never see the show in HD, I am willfully ignorant of what I am missing.

So how come states are able to regulate who sales alcohol?

And was torn apart by racist liberals during the nomination process

I'm hoping this will be more difficult to kill since they have a freak with sprint right now.

Firefly was good. Angel and Buffy early seasons were good as well (although I do agree that Angel was at it's best with Tim Minear at the helm.)

Dollhouse was terrible. It was terrible for many reasons but the biggest was because it had so much potential to be more than it was. The TV show Marvel is pretty bad as well.

Cabin in the Woods was clever marketing. It's great to make the type of movie that if someone doesn't like it, you can just say that they didn't get it. I liked it but not the end (and yes, I understood the point of the ending and all the wonderful metaphors involved.)

I'd be buying it as well for $5. Renting it, on the other hand... no.

That is more that blockbuster.
