I don't think it should be deleted. Just because some folks aren't going to watch NASACR anymore doesn't mean the they won't visit the thread again.

true. I'll still watch the truck races because those are pretty fun to watch. But the Winston/Nextel/Sprint/Rigged Cup I'm done. My dad said it too and he's been a nascar fan for years

Really? With nascar losing ratings and ticket sales do you really think its a wise choice to rig the chase?

and why are they losing ratings and tickets? Easy...THE CHASE IS RIGGED! Has been for the last couple years

Gee I wonder how many more fans arent going to watch the races or go to them because they are disgusted with it.

I don't think it has much to do with your statement of it being rigged...
Attendance is down for a number of reasons, Economy for one.
People DO get bored from time to time.

The seemingly changing schedule is another part of it... if they went back to the way it was back in the day, that would be great.
Now they have 2 people that want to OWN all the tracks and they HAVE to have thier way....

So instead of having the typical 2 races at each (most) tracks, they add garbage dates, move others, add another Calif. and Vegas while taking away others ....

No more Southern 500, many notorious two race a year tracks are gone.
Darlington down to ONE.
Only one race in Atlanta ? are you kidding me ....

Thats right, keep adding ... Next you know well have 3 races in Phoenix ...

Give us Chicago and Kansas, man, just CAN'T do without them....

Also, while I'm at it, who in the world sets the places they go to and when ?

Thats right, lets start at Daytona, the birthplace (thats Great ) then lets go to the WEST coast, that makes alot of sense, recently they have added Phoenix witch makes it a little better....
Just get started to get in the flow of things and they get to California and then to Vegas, oh, wait a minute, we NEED to take a break after a few weeks to catch our breath ... ya right, they just want to play in Vegas for an extra week.
Then it's usually from Vegas to somewhere like Pocano, great idea, all the way across the country AGAIN.

Next up they will get the OK for a track in NYC and then Hawaii and thats the route they will take to do it too.

A few years ago they decided to start a race at ANYtime under the sun, I will give them credit for going back to one of two time slots for the Sunday races.

:rant: RANT Over :rant:
I think.... :rolleyes:

Cali lost a race so they only get one now

Darlington kept the Southern 500 name but its just not labor day weekend

agree..stupid
But yeah Kentucky gets a race... :rolleyes: I guess all that whining and lawsuits got them a race

They used to take a week off right after Daytona.

I thought when "The Rock" was still on the schedule they went Daytona, Rockingham then a week off before Vegas. I dont remember them taking a week off after Daytona

Maybe you are right. Don't remember for sure.

That changes all the time.
1990
Daytona
Richmond
Rockingham

Atlanta
OFF
Darlington

1995
Daytona
Rockingham
Richmond
Atlanta
OFF
Darlington

2003
Daytona

Rockingham
Vegas
Atlanta

2004 the last year for the rock
Daytona
Rockingham
OFF
Vegas
Atlanta

In 2000 they went 9 races before they had a week off
Daytona
Rockingham
Vegas
Atlanta....

The changes most likely accounting for those early and late Easter Sundays esp in 2000..

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....

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.

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.

it will likely fix the OTA Single Tuner

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.
