:shocked:

Pics or shens

Sorry but I don't have a digital camera. The screen (5'x9') is on the front wall of a 16'x24' room. I have builders foam covered with black felt for masking panels all around the screen. There are burgundy drapes on each side of the screen. The Pansonic AE700 projector is mounted near the top of the back wall and below it is a HTPC, a stand alone DVD player, a HD DVR cable box, and an Okyo surround receiver with subwoofer. I ran all the speaker wires through the ceiling before installing the ceiling's sheetrock. HD content (especially sporting events and the Discovery channel) is very impressive. When and if I break down and get a digital camera I'll take some pics.

You think Jeff Bowden needs to go, We think Jay Paterno needs to go. Yet another thing for the media to talk about :laugh:

I was under the impression that everything was hunky-dory since he was supposedly demoted. Paterno, Holtz, and Bowden have all proved that nepotism is a no-no. We will not get rid of Jeffie until Bobby retires. For this reason a lot of us think that Bobby should go ahead and retire. He has put his family ahead of FSU football. Jeff is in way over his head and couldn't get a job coaching PeeWee football.

Wow not a single soul believe FSU can win yet...
The FSU players do. Some of them have been running their mouths a bit. Nothing really bad, but stuff like VT had a better defense, I think we can pass the ball on them, and my favorite, it'll be 80% FSU fans - when FSU actually sent back some of their allotted tickets!

Reminds me of what they were saying before UF played them... talking about how UF wasn't in the same league and didn't deserve to play against them.


Heh, I was sitting in the student section for that game. It was INSANE.
 
Florida State is losing a few players and a key defensive player for tonites game, has a freshman quarterback, has no rushing attack and is not really that good. Cant imagine Florida State qb not making a few mistakes tonite in the game. Florida State is the softest BCS team to make it to a bowl game. Bottom line, Penn State wins this game, covers this game and it is just a matter of by how much.

Sounds like what people said about LSU.
 
my vote is for Penn State since those 'Noles beat our team in the ACC championship...oh btw, Marcus didn't mean to step on that guys leg, I swear.

I agree with your vote but sorry I'm not going to agree with the Vick defense.
 
Is it me or does this game look EXCEPTIONALLY CRISP in HD?

I've watched quite a few games in HD over the past year, but this one looks even more crisp and clear than usual...

Anyone else notice this?

Not speaking for everyone... but there's quite a few people that don't necessarily like Penn State... They just hate FSU 😀

N/m I didn't read the post right above mine.
