  1. Something isn't setup right on your TV or receiver/tuner, because that shouldn't be happening. It sounds to me like your TV is set to "zoom" the image -- which would cut information out, including the top of the picture (ie: their head). I'm a firm believer in displaying the image the way the director wanted -- so I don't zoom/pan/stretch/etc - just leave it on normal.
  2. Until DirecTV started sending the Minneapolis locals, I used this on the roof: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16882172011 Worked great, if you're looking for an external antenna.
  3. jwws9999 is a pos poster who repeats himself ad nauseum and annoys everyone he speaks to, and the board would've been fine if he never signed up.
  4. Dude, it's a sat dish (that requires no setup), a receiver, and an LCD TV, all in one! What were you expecting???
  5. They are mobile... http://www.directv.com/DTVAPP/global/conte...ssetId=P4110014
  6. How can an antenna degrade over time? It's a peice of metal. This is the first time I've ever heard someone say that so I'm curious.
  7. http://www.engadgethd.com/2009/02/06/the-d...#readercomments My favorite is that this will not only cost us more money, but it's also not very "green" to delay the transition -- since we're going to end up wasting a lot of electricity to keep broadcasting in both analog and digital. And for what? So that 5 million of the 303 million people in the country don't lose their TV signal due to being too lazy to get a converter box in the past two years? Whatever.
  8. There's an awesome restaurant called "Papa Bear's" -- it's good Italian and it's cheap. When my wife and I were there (May '07), it looked like all of the high school kids were going there for prom.
  9. Ok, be honest. Is this "hypothetical neighbor" really you...?
  10. I wouldn't. Save $300/year yourself, in an interest bearing account that's marked just for the pet. After 12 years, you'll have $3,600 plus interest. If it costs more than that to help the pet, then I'd say it's time to say goodbye anyway. That's my opinion, anyway.
  11. DARBY THE DINOSAUR!
  12. I refuse to eat at Denny's: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Denny's#R...nation_lawsuits I worked on the class action lawsuit in 1995 and some of the claims I read were just horrifying.
  13. No we can't, we have to keep working so that you can collect your social security (that we'll never see).
  14. I said the exact same thing to my wife --- but you never see that penalty actually called, so I'm willing to give them a pass.
  15. It wasn't SO OBVIOUS to me. I thought it was a mirror of the play in the first half, which was reviewed and called incomplete.
  16. He had 4 TDs -- one to the Steelers. If he played for Buffalo, this board would be roasting him right about now.
  17. Biggest play of the game, and no review? Seriously? Cards got hosed there.
  18. With no timeouts, yes.
  19. I was shocked... Thought it'd be offsetting at the very least.
  20. Really? Because I'm thinking you win games by having the refs in your back pocket... And I really don't care who wins.
  21. After Ben was sacked, my wife asked, "What, no penalty?"
  22. Seriously, is that a real penalty? I don't think I've seen it called, ever... But I don't think I've seen it happen either, so I don't know...
  23. Without Ralph, the NFL wouldn't be worth the billions it is. You are aware that without Ralph, the Patriots and Raiders franchises would've both folded and the AFL would never have merged with the NFL, right?
