I guess by looking at that schedule that our Hawkeyes are still not good enough to be on national tv. So sad, but it doesn't appear that this year will be any better than last.

its july 1st any news on the early selections?

Not yet and its starting to really piss me off. I could see if there were imminent rumors of a Time Warner-BTN agreement that would hold things off, but there isn't any rumors about that.

Most of us here could have had these selections done a few weeks ago.

Week 1: Syracuse-Northwestern (12pm ESPN2), Utah-Michigan (3:30 ABC/ESPN2), everybody else to the BTN

Week 2: Oregon St.-Penn St. (3:30pm ABC/ESPN2), two other Big Ten games on ESPN/ESPN2 at 12pm, everybody else on the BTN

Week 3: Oregon at Purdue (3:30pm ABC/ESPN2), Iowa St. at Iowa (12pm ESPN/ESPN2), everyone else on BTN.

Really? You mean that two of the following games will end up on ESPN and ESPN2: Eastern Ill-Illinois, Florida International-Iowa, Miami (OH)-Michigan, Eastern Mich-Michigan St, Ohio-Ohio State, Northern Colorado-Purdue, Marshall-Wisconsin. I mean, the two best there would be Marshall-Wisconsin and Ohio-Ohio State, I guess. That's awful.

Couldn't they at least put Northwestern-Duke on (yeah, I know, it's under the ACC TV contract)? I mean, those teams might be bad, but tha's at least likely to be competitive.

Anyhow, I agree, that there's not likely to be much surprises in terms of what games go where. The biggest thing I'm curious about is if any additional games will get shifted to the BTN in the evening or whether it will be just the games they've already announced (they already have at least one night game on 8/30 and 9/6).

Not saying that it's right, but there is nothing else for ESPN to choose. Those telecast windows are empty and the Big Ten is the only conference they are waiting on.

I'd guess that the EIU-Illinois and UNC-Purdue games aren't really among the choices. The other five games are probably the ones ESPN is looking at.

At least you'll always have the Orange Bowl and that Hail Mary.

It was the Capital One Bowl.

And notice the offensive holding(s). Just saying. :)

I see outstretched arms, but I don't see any jersey being grabbed ;). That was an amazing game; the coming out party of JaMarcus Russell. With that said, Iowa outplayed LSU for 3 1/2 quarters and deserved to win, even if it was on a fluke play :). Besides, Iowa football went downhill after the 2005 Capital One Bowl.

On a related note, it perplexes me why the BTN has not included that Capital One Bowl in its greatest games archive. It was a fantastic game filled with drama (last second hail mary pass), big personalities (Saban's last game prior to going to the Dolphins) and a Big Ten victory.

I agree with everything you said. I was pacing in anger the first three quarters, jumping with joy for 14 minutes and 10 seconds of the 4th, then hit the floor the last 50 seconds in grief and exhaustion. :)

Sometimes a thread gets so many posts in it that is can cause issues for the server so that why today we introduce The Song Name Game Part 3!

So let the game continue!

The last song was added by Bobby who posted...

One Meat Ball - Andrews Sisters

CONTINUE ON AND HAVE FUN! WELCOME HOME TO SATELLITEGUYS.US!

Here are the original rules for the game as posted by WebbyDude back in 2006. http://www.satelliteguys.us/threads/68645-Song-Name-Game

Just name a song title and the band who performed it. The next person does the same thing, but needs to list a song title or band name which includes a word from the previous entry. Pick songs from any genre.

Example:

Long Live Rock and Roll -- Rainbow

Rainbow in the Dark -- Dio

Another example:

Ride the Lightning -- Metallica

Lightning Strikes -- Ozzy Osbourne


Get it?


An additional note: we all know that song titles, sometimes, use profane words. Because this is a family friendly website it is advised that you clean up that title up a bit. This is accomplished by using something like sh!t instead of the real word. Thanks....

Stargate SG-1 cancelled, Atlantis renewed

Monday - August 21, 2006 | by Darren Sumner

The future of Stargate is in question today, as SCI FI Channel has cancelled the long-running Stargate SG-1, Multichannel News reported today and a GateWorld source has confirmed. The news regrettably follows the airing of the show's milestone two-hundredth episode on Friday.

Stargate Atlantis, meanwhile, has been renewed for a fourth season, with the network hoping to see that the spin-off series can stand alone, according to a source.

I have gotten back into watching SG-1 and I have recorded most of the episodes to binge watch. What episodes are about the Antarctic or was this a movie? Also where could I watch the SG-1 movies?

Well, there are a couple involving the Antarctic. "Solitudes", S1 E17 (one of my favorites), Then, "Lost City', S7 E21 and E22. Then, in the SGA pilot, "Rising", S1 E1 and E2, it starts out in the Antarctic for about the first 20 minutes or so.

Which one has O'Neil being Ancients? I am at the end of Season 8 now.

If I understand your question, O'Neill had the Ancient's knowledge in the "Lost City" two-part episode. That was when Anubis attacked Earth and there was a big battle over Antarctica.

Really excited for this season with Kentucky having a new coach and some really exciting recruits. Probably won't last long, but here's hoping this season is great.

Has anyone noticed an FF stutter with 713? I used to be able to hit FF a few times and skip smoothly. After 713 (maybe 712), when I skip forward, there is a definite stutter for as many times as I have pressed FF.

Can anyone check on this and report back? Recorded programs and then press skip forward a few times to see if it's smooth? Normally, it just jumps to the right place after the skips.

I'm getting fabulous picture on Ch. 148 4k, but zero audio with H713. This is with a recorded show (Notre Dame game). Anyone else have this? Audio is fine on every other channel.

My wife mentioned that her remote is acting strange this morning. She hit FF and it went to 15x FF.

It's a known issue.
For a temporary fix, go into the menu, Audio, and turn Dolby Audio "OFF". You will have PCM stereo audio.

I was able to give the tech ops team some data logs so they could diagnose the problem, and they rolled me back to H708 temporarily. It fixed that issue.

They let me know that they understand what caused the issue, and it will be fixed within a few weeks in a new update.

I guess they will be busy when lots of people start asking for rollbacks to H708 now that you mention that downgrades of software does exist because it will likely fix the OTA Single Tuner and the IR Remote problems in H710-H713.
