QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Dec 6, 2013 -> 08:57 PM) Do you know what 3 games had the highest TV ratings this season? Bama - Auburn Bama - A & M Bama - LSU http://tvbythenumbers.zap2it.com/2013/12/0...-season/220234/ That article seems to only be counting CBS.

Big ten recruiting just sucks. There was a player on SVSM tonight in ohio that only has an offer from Akron but could play for Illinois. Mr ohio going to OSU is on his team and he's twice the player. This is why the big ten lags. The MAC shouldn't get any of these "fringe" guys.

QUOTE (Brian @ Dec 5, 2013 -> 04:19 PM) I see refs from half court intervene and call fouls out of their jurisdiction, under the basket, all the time. Don't buy the argument that it wasn't the refs call. Otherwise, why do refs ever huddle and get each other opinions on a call? Makes no sense. Ref missed obvious travel that probably cost Illinois the game. The End. Real time it was so obvious. Horrible non call. Doesn't matter in the long run anyway. Just be glad it wasn't during the tourney

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Dec 5, 2013 -> 04:47 PM) One show I really wish they hadn't canceled is "How To Make It in America". I really liked that one. Loved it.

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Dec 5, 2013 -> 02:51 PM) Unless there's evidence we haven't been told about yet, that's going to go nowhere. Well, he was prosecuted because they didnt think they'd win, it takes less evidence in civil court at times to get a decision your way.

Bought a 55in SAmmy 6050 at Costco for 700. COuldnt pass it up.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Dec 5, 2013 -> 02:27 PM) It depends. I was in a fraternity in school and was generally cordial with other fraternities, but there were still some I'd stay away from, and different houses had different connotations and reputations throughout my years there. There were definitely houses I ignored because of experiences I had there, and there were others I had no problem going to so long as it was cool. Hell, my best friend was a founding father of a new fraternity there and they just lived in a house while they colonized. I still had loyalty to my fraternity, but I got to know those guys so well that I'd just go over on a Friday or Saturday night and party with them. It's slightly different because of my experience, but if she had good friends in one and just happened to end up at the other because there was a party there, it makes total sense. I was close friends with a girl who was raped and she went out the next weekend to get hammered to forget. People react in different ways. She could easily have a mood disorder where her manic side drives her to act crazy and she copes with it with depression and memory loss.

QUOTE (chimpy2121 @ Dec 5, 2013 -> 12:53 PM) And here is where everyone will jump to cover up stories. Finebaum looked like someone just shot his dog. If FSU was in the SEC, he'd be doing cartwheels. Espn was reporting in front of an SEC network logo.

Search warrants issued today but all info points towards no charges for Winston. Confusing to say the least.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Dec 5, 2013 -> 12:02 PM) I thought you're supposed to turn that motion stuff ON to get the 120/240hz refresh rate? On makes it look more like the old meteor hockey puck blurring its way through the air. Turning it off increases Judder.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Dec 5, 2013 -> 11:51 AM) dark screens is a huge issue. If you're getting multiple hockey pucks and golf balls skipping you need to shut off the motion s***. It is shut off, and configured properly. Its just a characteristic of edge lit LED's.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Dec 5, 2013 -> 10:42 AM) IMO 99% of consumers won't notice the slight difference in picture quality between the LED's and plasmas. The only way the normal person can really see it is if you have both set up in a room right next to each other. That's why LED won out. Watching sports or dark movies its very obvious. A golf ball shouldnt "skip" through the air, there should only be one hockey puck not three as its passed down the ice.

QUOTE (Y2HH @ Dec 5, 2013 -> 10:15 AM) It's not only that, if you want to even get near Plasma quality at that size in LED, you're talking 3k+ price range. Thats what I'm guessing. I emailed my AV guy about it, he said theres this great 4k technology tv I just saw, its better than plasma. price tag? 30,000

I wonder what this bad boy looks like http://www.amazon.com/Mitsubishi-WD-92742-...822&sr=1-38

QUOTE (Y2HH @ Dec 5, 2013 -> 10:07 AM) Perception is reality ... a lot of people are convinced LED/LCD is higher quality than Plasma, so the manufacturers are making what they're buying. People view "Plasma" as old. They're wrong in every regard, but it is what it is. It's exactly like VHS beating BetaMax, despite being of worse quality. Looks like all hope is in OLED. My 6-7 year old plasma still owns every LED/LCD if ever bought or seen. I just invite over a friend to watch hockey and its evident. I really want something 70in or above and it looks like ill be settling for the soap opera effect.

QUOTE (Y2HH @ Dec 5, 2013 -> 10:03 AM) I think because they're made of 2 panes of glass sandwiching the plasma gas they become too fragile at that size and prone to very easy breaking when people handle them. And Panasonic is stopped production of plasmas in April. Dammit. I hate that LED's have "won", the picture quality just isnt there.

Why cant they make a plasma larger than 65in? I dont f***ing get it. I dont really WANT an edge lit LED in my sports room.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Dec 5, 2013 -> 09:33 AM) 10mbs download speed is plenty to handle youtube videos. Should be, but the dropping of signal is what concerns me. I've seen it before in a couple of cases, one where it was literally the wiring not having enough strength of signal from the provider and the other the router was just losing packets and it was basically slowly dying.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Dec 5, 2013 -> 07:00 AM) The last season is good. Second to last, not so much. They all have their own place, its a great show to watch.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Dec 5, 2013 -> 01:13 AM) My internet has been pretty slow since I moved into my apartment back in May and I am pretty tired of it.. My internet will disconnect at least 2 times a day randomly for no reason, I can't stream video like MLBTV, can't play madden online through wifi, YouTube videos buffer sometimes. But I am just now fed up, I just got a tablet and its connected to the wifi. My router is probably no more then 20 feet away from my living room (it is in a small bedroom) and I can't even watch a Youtube video, I have to let it buffer for a few minutes to watch and surfing the internet is slow as well. Anything I can do to speed up the internet? My ISP offers up to 30 Mbps and I believe my router is more then good enough for a small apartment. Just did a speed test and this is what I got: 10.43 download and 4.29 upload speed. not sure how good that is considering I am 15 feet from my router and nobody else is using the internet. whenever I am in the same room as the router my internet is way fast. Any tips would be great Who is your provider What type of router do you have

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Dec 5, 2013 -> 08:29 AM) I know, context, but this is still funny. That was a decision between two one loss teams. Love how thats all left out. Oh and that team was Michigan. I think we can all agree that a one loss SEC team trumps a one loss Big Ten team.

QUOTE (PlaySumFnJurny @ Dec 5, 2013 -> 08:39 AM) That's fair, but I blame the nation's #1 team that played at home. I was kidding.

Tie. I blame Illinois.

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Dec 4, 2013 -> 10:14 PM) p**** I can't get out of the car.
