You can lower your cable bill to $0.00 very easily too. As someone who grew up watching sports, I can tell you that if I can do it, so can you. The major professional sports leagues have the system rigged so that if you want to watch the local team, you have to subscribe. I listen on the (free) radio now instead. I found it's much more productive a way to live too. Watching other people do their jobs on TV eats a lot of your free time.
