I switched to AT&T Uverse when I moved to CA and to be honest its excellent. I chose it becuase the secodn to basic service gives you all the sports channels, whereas with Comcast I had to buy a "Sports Package" to get them.
The best thing over here though is that nearly all the mainstrwam sport such as the NFL, College Football, Baseball, NBA, March Madness, NHL etc are all shown on the main regular channels that come with all the basic packages so if you only watch the NFL there is no way for the TV companies to stiff you with a special package like Sky do. In UK terms its like all the top sports still being on BBC, ITV and Channel 4, instead of Sky paying billions for the rights, the main channels spend that money instead. Until the BBC remove the license fee and accept advertising they won't be able to afford any top sports packages!!
Like you guys I end up watching quite a bit of BBC America, mainly Top Gear.
