Take Two might sell the 2K sports franchises..to..Electronic Arts! Ha..I bet that will go over like a lead balloon.

That will be so far in the future though..2009 is just for OTA analog transmissions ceasing, it will be another 15 years + past that before they'll get around to doing away with everything that isnt HD.

What was Flair the president of? WCW I cant find the pic of him standing at the podium with the logo and all..

They should do something with Flair since its Presidents day and hes a former President.

It doesnt come out for Nintendo until Qtr 3 of 2007 which is like..Sept.

So..theres something wrong with posting vegas odds (over under win total for MLB teams) in the sports forum? Oh..I see it got its own thread..hmm.. odd

Roberts will probably live to be 100 just as some sort of punishment.

I also love playing various stolen movies, sports and games on my XBox in HD. But, the geeks here that say they simply won't watch any SD stuff at all are being stupid assholes. Stuff I'll grudgingly watch in SD: Good Eats (til Directv gets Food Network HD later this year) The News (CNN's going HD later this year, my local news probably never) Orioles Games (simply because MASN isn't available in HD this year and it might not be available on Directv when it is) Ravens Games (because CBS's NFL coverage in HD is terrible..4 HD GAMES each sunday this year..why not all of them like FOX?) RAW/Smackdown/ECW/PPVs (even though it would be possible for all shows to be in HD through Universal HD and CW) Other stuff under special circumstances

The match at ONS was great and it sucked he got hurt durring the match or else he would have at least had a shot at being in the new ECW (whether or not hed want to would be another story).

The name brand thing is pointless, there are quite a few lesser recognized brands who put out HD TVs that are similarly comparable to the stuff that Sony/Samsung etc put out for a much cheaper price. However you are like a lot of people who buy HDTVs but are clueless to the fact that you still need a source for HD programming and that just watching regular cable/satellite on a brand new HDTV doesnt make it HD (in fact, it sorta makes it worse). A lot of these same people go around complaining because the picture isnt that great...well DUH.

Hopefully by September I'll get to play 2k7 with spiffy motion controls and stuff. Til then..

Saw this posted at OH and Im intrigued.. OVER/UNDER MLB WIN TOTALS FOR 2007! Arizona Diamondbacks 77.5 Atlanta Braves 81.5 Baltimore Orioles 73.5 Boston Red Sox 90.5 Chicago Cubs 85.5 Chicago White Sox 86.5 Cincinnati Reds 76.5 Cleveland Indians 84.5 Colorado Rockies 74.5 Detroit Tigers 87.5 Florida Marlins 78.5 Houston Astros 78.5 Kansas City Royals 67.5 Los Angeles Angels 89.5 Los Angeles Dodgers 88.5 Milwaukee Brewers 81.5 Minnesota Twins 83.5 New York Mets 88.0 New York Yankees 97.0 Oakland Athletics 84.5 Philadelphia Phillies 88.5 Pittsburgh Pirates 71.5 San Diego Padres 84.0 San Francisco Giants 81.5 Seattle Mariners 75.5 St Louis Cardinals 84.5 Tampa Bay Devil Rays 67.0 Texas Rangers 81.5 Toronto Blue Jays 86.5 Washington Nationals 66.5 A few are interesting.. edit (bolds are over, italicized are under..) I was just going to say that the Orioles have to win more than 73 games..and Id consider betting on that..hmm.

We're due a RAW 15th Anniversary Set soon I would bet since next Jan is the 15th anniversary. Hopefully they'll do better with that than they did with the RAW X crap.

The guy that invented the TV remote died too.

No Way Out..No Mercy...whats the difference? Hardys got me about 50 extra points..bleh. This week: Cena HBK Jeff Hardy Super Crazy Kahli Melina Lashley RVD RVD is a decent pick since he might get 2 matches this week (HA), I took Melina over Mickie James only for the fact shes 1/2 mil cheaper, doubt she'll win the title.

I hope they dont do Rated RKO vs The Hardys vs MNM in the MITB match to try and recapture the Ladder/TLC matches of E&C vs The Hardys vs The Dudleys and all this talk about Albert..

DID YOU KNOW Many if not most widescreen TVs (yes, HD ones!) come with an option to change the zoom level on the TV so you can have the picture in 4:3 instead of it filling up the whole screen. Obviously this makes the picture a bit smaller, but then you won't have to bitch about "stretchovision". I'm going to go ahead and assume you have this option for your TV and that you're going to be aware of it. You know what happens when you assume! My tv has no zoom feature. I can make the screen 4:3 if its 16:9 and the stretched crap will look fine, but the channel shouldnt send the picture stretched to begin with. Its stupid.

Some of you people need to visit the AVS HD forums if you think what I do here is bad. You wouldnt understand the problem of stretchovision since you dont have a widescreen TV. Imagine taking the picture you watch now and having it stretched about a 1/4 to the left and to the right, but not vertically. I did not pay $900 to see bloated psuedo-hd-for-idiots. The shows commonly stretched were not in HD originally, however they could still show them on the HD channel and it would be fine in 4:3 aspect, but no..they have to stretch it because 16:9 is the only gosh darn way to show an HD program and people love it when characters on TV look like Jabba the Hutt. I hear A&E HD is the same way, and their only HD program is CSI Miami which is why they have to freakin show CSI Miami 15 out of 24 hours now to justify having an HD channel. A&E should change their name anyway..theres hardly any program on that network that falls under either Arts or Entertainment..

For some this draft is moving along really fast.. for others (ME!)..it seems like its taking an eternity.

Let's go O's! WHY NOT? Here's a website that covers the season (and its build up) in excruciating detail if you're interested: http://www.birdsinthebelfry.com/1989.htm God, I'm just thinking... Johan Santana vs. Bob Milaki...Fransisco Liriano vs. Jeff Ballard...this just doesn't seem fair. Oh well. The 2006 Twins beat the Os 6 games out of 9 in 2006 The 1989 Twins beat the Os 8 games out of 12 in 1989. just sayin.. and Ballard went 18-8 in 89..

Not directly about music, but Donnie Darko was set in the 80's and she was the teacher. Next week should be interesting. Reno 911, #23 and the Astronaut Famer.

I cant watch anything where its stretched and the people look bloated. The Family Guy promos are horrible and I want to throw something at the screen everytime one of them comes up..not that Im gonna watch Family Guy ever on TBS, but I hope they dont stretch everything to when TBS HD launches in time for the MLB playoffs. Nice to see they can drag out Robin Leech from whatever hole he's been living in for the last 10 years.

24 hours of Law and Order is great..but most of it will be in TNT "stretch-o-vision©" which sucks.

The East sucks. not enough Arenas..lol and I saw Carrot Top in the Celebrity game..he looks like hes on freaking steroids. Hopefully Vince didnt see him..

The sound is off! I hate that.
