  3. I don't understand why Boozer downgraded from Williams to Rose

  9. I see confusion all over the place, just thought I'd post some clarifications in here for those of you unsure about things. I'd like to start off with the biggest scam in the industry- CABLES If you are buying an HDTV, you are going to need to pick up cables to hook up your peripherals to the TV. There are two types of cables - digital and analog. Digital comes in the form of HDMI and analog in the form of Component. There is absolutely no difference in picture quality between Component and HDMI - the big difference comes with audio. HDMI can carry video AND audio through one cable. Component needs RCA cables or an optical cable in addition to hook up audio. HDMI is also the only way to use Dolby TrueHD and DTS Master Audio formats(uncompressed audio, only found on Blu Ray and HD DVD). There is no difference between cable brands. If you go to a big name store, you will be pressured into purchasing a HDMI cable produced by Monster Cable that is very expensive. This cable is exactly the same as any other. I'd recommend buying a cable online as they are very cheap on several sites including Amazon, Monoprice, and more. Digital is digital, there is no difference in quality as long as both are plugged in and there is no damage to the cable(unless it is defective). SOURCES If you hook up your TV to the wall, you are not receiving HD content necessarily. You could be receiving standard def content that is either in 4:3 mode(with black bars on the left and right) or stretched. All new HDTVs come with a QAM tuner that allows you to receive local stations in HD depending on who you subscribe to for cable. Another option for local channels is to install an antenna. If you want more channels in HD or have an older model you will need an HD receiver from your current cable or satellite provider. Adding HD will also more than likely increase your monthly bill depending on provider. The providers with the most channels in order: DirecTV Dish Verizon FiOS AT&T U-verse Cable companies vary in area, although none of them will match DirecTV or Dish. The highest quality provider is Verizon FiOS, being the only provider to pass along content without degrading the quality of the signal. Other providers worsen the signal in order to add more channels. Picture Quality Ratings: Verizon FiOS DirecTV Dish AT&T U-Verse Cable companies will vary in area, although consensus shows that most will be somewhere between Dish and U-Verse. TELEVISIONS The best quality HD set you can get would be a CRT TV. Unfortunately, these are no longer produced. If you are purchasing a new TV, the best is Plasma, followed by LED, and LCD in last. Older Plasmas suffered from burn-in symptoms, but these are no longer a big issue. Plasmas are also generally cheaper than LCDs, but can consume more power. No TV will look good out of the box. The settings need to be adjusted. You can either pay for professional calibration or get a test pattern(can be found on many DVDs that say THX Optimized) to adjust settings to your liking. A rule of thumb on flat panel displays is to set sharpness to zero. If you have any questions/comments/concerns, please post and I'll get back to you
  10. Bush didn't respond to Katrina because he hates black people See how nice stupid, unthoughtful claims look?
  11. what are you talking about LMAO you are a horrible troll, just because some people fall for your crap doesn't mean everyone will
  12. This guy is amazing Quote: Get out of here with it's for charity. Boys and girls club, my [expletive]. It's for his boyz. And to get girls. At the club. Quote: Don't fall for the Boys & Girls Club coverup. This (LBJ/King James) is an ego explosion the likes of which we've never seen. Quote: Looking at LBJ's ego, Brett Favre is somewhere in Mississippi cackling and rolling a blunt. Quote: Did Jordan ever call himself "Air Jordan" or did he allow us 2 call him Air? LeBron calling himself King James is a joke. We created monster Quote: Has anyone ever jumped the shark w/first tweet? I may unfollow. RT @KingJames: Hello World, the Real King James is in the Building "Finally" about 6 hours ago via Echofon
  13. Explain the 250gig data cap? Why are they the only provider doing that? Why do they charge $50/mo for only 7mbps?!?! You wanna know why they have so many subs? Because they are the only option in most cities
  14. :lol: :lol: I'd like you to find 50 people that do not work for the company that think Comcast has good service :lol: :lol: They won the prestigious 'Worst Company in America' award on Consumerist ffs
  15. If you don't want to make yourself look like an [expletive] they would. But we all know you have a thing for LeBron, and that is why you're defending him.
  16. He could just donate money himself or announce it on a website where advertisement space goes to charity. Really, any option is better than a 1 hour 'special'
  17. oh yeah, he has to do everything ESPN tells him, I forgot about that
  18. The page you have requested was not found or is no longer available.

  20. I played a NBA Live 10 demo yesterday out of boredom and I shot a pullup jumper with Fisher on two straight possessions. 2k10 would laugh in my face for doing that at least
