Fan in Chicago

If the Bills beat SF & the Steelers and then meet NE, I will feel the exact opposite. But I do concede you are a classy fan of NE (never thought they could possibly exist).

Much as I would like to vent on you, the Bills recently have done nothing to prove otherwise. Right now, we need to get into the playoffs and then think about this potential heart thumping, beer guzzling, throat hoarsing (?) scenario. Let us not look that far ahead. The Bills need to take care of SF first and NE needs to watch out for the Jets. One thing at a time before you Patsies start getting hard-ons thinking about meeting the Bills in the playoffs.

Great post. I admit {cowering} that I was one of those wishing the Steelers would not play at full strength. But you are so right - we need to prove to ourselves that we belong in the playoffs. If we beat a fully motivated Steelers team, we may go deep in the playoffs. Thanx for waking me up !

Something I had heard applies here - "show me a hottie and I will show you a guy tired of f****ing her"

I would rather take Palmer who is perceived to be 'better' and then kick the cr*p out of him so the media cannot discount the magnitude of our victory.

I few large heapings of Sam Adams or PW early in the game won't hurt either

X-Files: A Christmas Carol (I think that was the name). Very funny and weird episode that I simply loved. Yeah Yeah, I know that it is not a true 'Christmas episode' in the traditional sense. But who cares ? It is my favorite.

I have doen this albeit about 12 years back. I was a poor grad student at SUNY and wanted to go to Chicago for spending 2 weeks looking for a job. So problem - no car, no money for airline tics plus I am a cheapie by heart anyway. But I digress... I looked in the yellow pages for these 'driveaway' companies and found about 5. One of them had a car needed to be 'moved' to Chicago. So I picked it up, drove it, delivered it to their Chicago office, signed paperwork and was only out the $25 for gas (back when it wa ~ $1.1/gallon). It was easy and cheap.

Gee, I don't like King either. But please don't call him a two-bit ho.

We are on such a strong roll that I really really think that we are going to stop the Cincy love-fest and hand them their collective a**es on a leaky wooden platter. It is obvious this is the toughest game in a while but we will emerge stronger and bolder than we are now. So there, I said it !

If you chose to, your name would have to be ICE.

I got that feeling during the Miami game, but I see no problem with that. As long as the game is tucked away, it may not be a bad idea to pad some stats.

Not that his money is helping him much right now !

You fell for my hook - he built the superbowl VISITING Bills and that is my point. In the final analysis, Polian has not done anything more or less than TD except visited a few more SB's. I do share one of your thought - we want to win a SB and nothing less will do. Given that, Polian has not done that so TD is in no way half the GM that Polian is.

Not entirely sure about that. Has Polian won any superbowls yet ? It doesn't help to make your team good enough to storm into the playoffs and lose. I agree that getting to the playoffs is something we wish we could. But mind you - TD did get the Steelers to the playoffs also. Polian is good but don't proclaim that he is any less or more than what TD is. I remember you ranting that Butler put us in cap hell and cursed him no end for that. So what makes you a Polian fan ?

Fair enough - that is why so much of audio and video is about personal preferences and budget. Any other advantages you see of LCD over DLP ? How much did you pay for your pj ? I know we can't post prices on AVS so am just curious.

make that Videophiles, audiophiles and almost anything home theater or satellite TV related....

rainbows are literally in the eyes of the beholder. I don't see any on my DLP pj - the Infocus SP4805. Most on AVS say that they do not with this pj. If you are serious about it, don't base it on anybody else's advice and check it out for yourself. Another 'problem' with pj is the screen door effect which also is not noticeable with my pj at 2x viewing distance.

yes I do - PM me your e-mail and you got it.

I have 6 invites so if anyone missed A**quathc's offer, PM me (with an e-mail address)

Agree with all you said - I have an Infocus Screenplay 4805 in my newly finished basement since 6 weeks back and have totally forgotten how a movie looks on that puny little TV set. I also did a bunch of research on the various sub-forums on AVS and bought the pj, receiver etc. If you need any help, let me know.

If you like Mitsu, stay with it. Check out reliability and repair records before you buy. As Fez suggests, do research on avsforum and it may open your eyes to other possibilities. One piece of advice - why are you set on rectangular ? For movie watching, 16:9 is the way to go. Unless you don't plan on using it to watch movies.... About projection TV - I saw this at a friend's place and the viewing cone sucks big time. He had it at eye level if you are sitting down on one of his two sofas. But if you stand up or wander away from that sofa position, the picture deteriorated RAPIDLY. Please keep that in mind.

Fez, Cool ! Great to find another avsforum fan here.

Okay, I did the searching for you and got this answer. Seems simple enough as 8 ohms are easy to find. Don't go 4 ohm though: Author Thread ---> Show Printable Version | Email this Page | Subscribe to this thread 11-04-04 06:20 PM foogles New Member Registered: Nov 2004 Location: Posts: 1 6ohm receiver with 8 ohm speakers Kind of a reversal of the normal question I find here. I'm fairly new to speakers so this may be a dumb question. Is there any issue with using 8ohm speakers with a receiver that is rated at 6 ohms? Thanks. 11-04-04 08:17 PM graphicguy AVS Special Member Registered: Jun 2002 Location: Ohio Valley Posts: 1049 Nope....no problems. If an AVR can drive 6 OHM speakers, it should drive 8 OHMs quite well. __________________ Never wrestle with pigs. You both get dirty but the pigs actually like it. POST #2 |

I got a better suggestion - go to http://www.avsforum.com and click on the Audio--> Speaker section. Before registering and posting, you can search the sub-forum for something like '6 ohm' and see what you get. If you get no answer, I suggest registering and posting a question. You should get a resposne within 24 hours. Advantage - you get no commercial solicitations or biased advice. It is all geeks so you get the correct advice. If you need any more help, PM me.
