Yup, no need for you to rehash it again, I'm sure you were all over it at the time. But it's new for me, because I just saw it for the first time. Now I see why it bothered my brother so much.

I thought it was stupid on there behalf... Just like Lebron leaving the floor and not shaking hands after getting eliminated...

He gave no reason for doing...he stated simply that come the Finals, no one is in perfect condition and almost everyone is dinged or not at their best...once you are on the court...your on the court. period. And I agree to that, to his behavior...like I said, I thought it was stupid...especially since IF the Heat were to eat hotdogs the wrong way...the media would blow it out of poportion...so there was no need to add fuel to that fire.

Yeah Lebron is always going to be Lebron (Kinda like A-Rod) but you'd like Wade to be a little more like Jeter and not get caught up in it.

Look...I doubt we will see the class of Jeter again... You can want and expect them to have class or skill, but cannot expect someone to be like someone of the past. People are their own person, whether you want it/like it or not.

Yeah my point is more that Wade seems to be changing from one type of person to another with Lebron around.

It also sounds like Lebron was asked a loaded question by some reporter during the series about not playing well in the fourth quarter, Lebron had a great (and correct) answer saying 'look at how well I'm playing defense', and then his fourth quarter disappearing act started right after that.

Look.... he has become more guard because of the bullsh** that was written about THE TEAM than anything else. Everyone down here knew that alot would be written about Lebron because of the garbage "Decision", but the hate coming to the organization, by the media especially, as is if the organization had done something wrong or illegal was too much, and you can see it in his face....he IS the face of the franchise.

Well they certainly don't get hate from the DA-DA-DA, DA-DA-DA station on your local dial! Their love fest all the way through the final whistle!

There is NOTHING wrong with asking if there is something going on where he was not performing in 4th quarters... The media has a right to ask that. But it was THE WAY it was asked...the guy didn't come off as if intentions were to ask a question that both the media and fans want to know, but it came off as 'I plan to embarrass the crap out of you at every chance I get'. Then you add the hate everyone had for the Lebron and the Heat... fans loved it outside of south Florida.

Yeah, I get all the periphery stuff...I just think it's curious that right after Lebron handled that question about the fourth quarter well...his fourth quarter game disappeared. Or went south...so to speak. ;)

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.

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.

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....

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.

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.

I think they were more of a transitional receiver bridging the VIPs to the Hopper. They were a PITA to install and were buggy. Personally, I thought at the time that they were the best receiver out there. The versatility of the VIP's with the new Hopper GUI and, by far, the coolest-looking front plate and lighting.

Well if it is because of reliability that wouldnt shock me.I went through 5 or 6 of them in little over 2 years. I loved the Sling when it worked! Saved lots of money having it in the day. That was probably 15 or 16 years ago?

I don't recall that they came out just before hopper, but rather that they came out even before 722. Or could be thinking of 921.

As to the title pf the post, "rare" does not necessarily mean valuable or desirable.

You are thinking of the 921. The 922 was the first DVR with Sling functionality built in (that was eventually disabled along with the Sling Adapter for the 722s and the 1st Hopper because they relied on now-defunct Adobe Flash technology). With the bugginess described by others and the removal of its marquee feature (Sling) the 922 faded into obscurity once the Hopper 2 with built in Sling was released and they finally made the concept into a fully functional product.
dishdude
I had one, the front panel lighting was cool, the menus were fresh and a lot more modern looking than the ViPs. However, it was very buggy and the Sling functionality just didn't work well - I think it was due to internet speeds at the time. I think I had to pay $40 for the Sling app on my phone iirc.
