^^Good use of quotes, Jeremi :grin:

He's legal...maybe you can get his number.

I'd like to see all the lyrics to that...funny stuff!

Thanks for the help, bro!

Service manual says the bandwidth needs to be at least 200mhz. As far as channels, it looks like I would only need to take one measurement...but... I found a new y-drive on eBay for cheap, so I'll probably just buy it and try it. If that doesn't work than it's the screen itself that is bad.

IDK...a day tops Add: I'll have to read more but it looks like its only a couple things I have to check. I can take the TV to the oscilloscope too if that works for somebody. I used to have access to all this stuff at OSU...grr

I got plasma tv with the screen out for cheap. I got the picture back but there is one single black line across it. I'm trying to figure out if its the y-drive or the screen itself that is bad.

I know it's a long shot but there are a few computer/electronics people on here...

I disagree. I think conference championships actually increase the chances of having the 'wrong' conference champion. Take a look at the Big 12 this year...it didn't happen but what if Missouri had beaten Oklahoma? Everybody knows Missouri isn't the best team in the Big 12, but there is always that possibility of them playing out their ass for one game and beating the team who was better for 95% of the season. I think the Pac-10 has the best system because all 10 teams play each other. Sure there is still a possibility of co-champs but who cares? If you don't win every conference game (ala Penn St.) then maybe you don't deserve to be outright champs.. IMO I wish the Big 10 would add 2 more conference games so we play every team each year and this would take the FBS and other bad teams off the schedule. No, I don't think the Big 10 was hot shit this year. I would put us at 3rd or 4th best conference overall. Who was hot shit in the SEC besides Florida and Alabama? Georgia and LSU were exposed.

Yes...but it doesn't mean they are a better team. I'm just tired of the favoritism towards the "top" conferences. Remember, when the BCS was created the Big East still had Miami in it... Why should the Big 10, Pac 10 or other BCS conference get an auto bid if the conference is having a down year? Money is the only reason... and is why my scenario will never be taken seriously.

I'm proposing a new automatic BCS bid rule: You must win your conference AND be ranked in the top 10 to be an automatic bid. This applies to MAC, WAC, MWC, too. If there are co-champions, only the higher ranked team gets an automatic bid. I think this is the fairest way to do it...its not showing favoritism to any of the FCS conferences and years when a conference is down (ex. ACC this year) there is no guarantee they will get an auto bid. This year auto bids would have gone to: Oklahoma Florida Penn St. USC Utah Boise St. Leaving four at large bids to be divided between Ohio St., Texas (sorry TT we are keeping the 2 team max rule), Alabama, Cincy and the other teams in the top 14 (like the rule is now). Also, I'm taking away the "Notre Dame" rule...they don't get special treatment for being independent. They get thrown into the mix with the other at-large teams. Thoughts?

Bc the Big East and ACC blow this year!

I'm tired of hearing people bitch that Ohio St. got in instead of Boise...if there is a team that doesn't deserve to be in the BCS its Cincy or Va Tech.

If anybody is interested I could do some BBQ ribs or some other kind of smoked meat...??

+1 I think Texas should be in the NC game. I'm rooting for OU to win so it makes our win/loss to Texas look better...plus Florida and Tebow can go to hell. +1 I love it down there. I went down a couple years ago for the National Championship game and it was a lot of fun...except for the game...I pretty much blocked that out of my memories.

:lol:

+1000

Want: OU, Penn St., Ohio St., Cincy, Bama Initial feeling: OU, USC, Texas, Cincy, Bama

:lol:lol:

Did you recognize anybody?

Romeo is the worst coach ever. ever. Why not go for it on 4th and 1? Why not challenge Cribbs long pass? Romeo=Fail
