And those of us that were at work helping to protect the borders wish we could have been at home watching the game.
You could have skipped the day of work...and no one would have noticed...
Oh, I wish :)
Actually with all the play, replay, examine it from another angle replay, and the in case you missed it shots of the play, I think you are actually watching the equivalent of 4 games.
And yet with all that, how did I miss Tennessee stopping LSU so they only got a field goal?
Those of you with HDTV — do you notice any difference?
(Regular TV has the 4:3 aspect ratio; HDTV has 16:9)?
I dont have HDTV. The one I have hasn’t broken yet.
I have a habit of responding to just one post when I mean the general audience....anyone out there have HDTV?
Got one about 6 months ago, still amazed at the picture quality. Simply awesome. I will tell you it sucks with an analog source though.
I was wondering about the view of the field — do you get a larger view of the field, or is it about the same?
Good question. I haven’t noticed anything different but I haven’t looked at it from that perspective. I think I would have a hard time telling you one way or the other even if I did look for it. I seriously doubt that if it is different that it would be much different.
It’s the light-weight cameras and too many of them.
When cameras were heavy and expensive they did a better job of showing the actual game play.
I get claustrophobia now days because I’m forced to look up peoples noses when I just want to see the field.
Penalties and fights are part of the game.
The producers probably think that showing so much crowd stupidity and sideline shots add reality to the game.
Instead with all the cameras capturing every detail, we still miss oodles and gob's of game action.
