I don't think you are trying to be disrespectful. I mean, I've often said things or done things and never realized, until after the fact, that I was kind of short sided about how I viewed a given situation. It happens. It's no big deal, really, kind of a minor one to be honest. No worries.
I posted earlier that I no longer do pay that. Once the kids all left, the ability to downsize was much easier. In the old house, we had like 10 TVs, all with the works. We downsized our house to a much smaller one, now that the kids moved out, like 2600 sq. ft. and we now only have 5 TVs so that much easier. We use Firestick now with a much cheaper DirectTV app that allows you to stream and get NFL Channel for much, much cheaper.
