    I get some tickets off and on as well, but I will definitely take you up on that as mine are hit and miss. My g/f has NEVER been to a college football game! Anytime you have extra tix and want to go, let me know. We'll pile into the Rover and tailgate.

    i attatched some pictures of the TV my parents have at their home in new york.You should have looked into this tv for 1080p. Its a whole lot cheaper now than when it came out. They bought it about 8 months ago when it first came out, i think it was around $4600. I took these while we were setting everything up so the living room is a mess. I didnt get a chance to take better ones before flying back to my place here in atl.

    Its a 60" Sony SXRD Liquid Crystal on Sylicone display. Full 1080i - 1080p up conversion. (even though you wont see true 1080p signals for yeeearrs)

    It's a nice TV and all, but for the 1080p, you will still pay a high premium; a good bit more than what I spent on my Mitsu and I get a 65" over the 60".

    You must have a very big living room for a 65" tv not to hurt your eyes. The living room at my parents place is set up where the recliners they sit in are about 15 feet back from the TV. and I will tell you at night with no lights on, the t.v. hurts my eyes beause it is so big.

    The up-side to having the 60", if you keep going back behind the sofa and recliners you go up 2 stairs and it turns from carpeted to tile where there is a bar and a small table, then if you open up the sliding doors you go into the hot tub room. If you sit in the hot tub with the doors open the TV is big enough to see clearly, which is nice. I think that is why they went with the 60" instead of the 50". (it sounds tacky, but its actually very well designed, i have pics if anyones interested)
