Hawk 34 Posted December 31, 2007 Report Posted December 31, 2007 Heat counts as televised? Yes, Meltzer probably meant to say wins-losses mean nothing, which is true.

DrVenkman PhD Posted January 1, 2008 Report Posted January 1, 2008 Heat counts as televised? Yes, Meltzer probably meant to say wins-losses mean nothing, which is true. Well, it IS televised outside of North America, so I guess it could count.
MrRant Posted January 1, 2008 Report Posted January 1, 2008 Well, the only charge by Comcast is for the box itself which is like $5-6 extra in this area. But HDTVs at $120? Are those located next to the $10 computers?
Jericholic82 Posted January 1, 2008 Report Posted January 1, 2008 yknow I did get some Rumble tix. even though I was on hold before 10 am, I still only had a chance at the cheapest seats. that bites, I call shenanigans!!! anyhow theyre in the 322 section, which is actually directly across the room from where I sat back in aug. not the best o seats, but still alright, and hey Im going to the freakin Royal Rumble! and this friday I will be at the RAW house show in White Plains, NY. Too bad none of my fellow members here are going. at the rumble, we ought to hold a TSM.com convention outside the arena

Are those located next to the $10 computers? Oh don't get me wrong, I don't expect to find a HDTV at that price. But I can get a regular tv at that price. I'm at a loss to understand why I should pay extra for a better picture.

I'm at a loss to understand why I should pay extra for a better picture. Maybe not so much for wrestling programming, but the change from a standard def TV to a High Def Tv(Properly calibrated, not how they are on the show room floor at Best Buy etc...) is HUGE. I can barely stand to watch any Standard Def programming now after I got my HD Tv last year. It's a monumental difference.
Dobbs 3K Posted January 1, 2008 Report Posted January 1, 2008 But I can get a regular tv at that price. Yeah, a pretty small, "no name" brand TV, generally. 'm at a loss to understand why I should pay extra for a better picture. It's not like the picture difference is small.
Mr. S£im Citrus Posted January 1, 2008 Report Posted January 1, 2008 'm at a loss to understand why I should pay extra for a better picture. It's not like the picture difference is small. It's not like the difference is life changing, either. I've never once watched a movie/sporting event/TV program in HD and thought to myself, "Son of a bitch, how did I ever watch TV without this?" It might be a better picture, but it's seriously not that critical; I've seen the difference between SD and HD, and I've never seen anything on TV, ever, where I thought to myself "Shit, I couldn't possibly enjoy this in SD. It's HD or NOTHING!" It's just not, by any measure, essential to whether I can or cannot enjoy what I'm watching on television and, frankly, I can't even conceive of why it should be.

The difference on a properly calibrated TV is really really noticeable.
