Twins Tease..

[Bobby Bass]

Ok so they now have 5 come from behind wins. I know it is early but I hate to say that I might be hooked into watching them this year even more then I usually do. Of course this year I added a home theater to the house and baseball on a 90" screen is better then being there and my hot dogs are cheaper!

Actually, 5th <STRAIGHT> come-from-behind win... 6th overall. So early in the year, but it's an extra sweet feeling after games like tonight's over Rivera and the rest of the kajillion dollar Yankees...

that game was great tonight. I had my doughts with rondell white at bat, but did not expect hunter to fail also. stupid coaching by the yanks to pitch to morneau with first base open and a righty on deck with batista. lets get a sweep, that would be soo awesom, and the way we are scoring runs for radke, it should be good.

Actually Rivera is awfully tough against lefties with that cutter he throws. I think thats why they pitched too him. I mean lets face it he made a good pitch too Morneau but his strength got it done. He got sawed off but muscled it out there. I kind of thought going into this season the national media wasnt giving the twins much of a chance and maybe they dont really deserve it but i liked how the lineup was looking coming into the season. I mean what happens when White wakes up which we know he will. This lineup can put some runs across and we all know the pitching staff is already solid. I wonder how and when Liriano will get his chance because i've said it from day 1 this year i dont think it will come at Bakers expense. I think hes very solid and his upside is also very very big. He showed good stuff last year when given the chance and has continued this year.

WOW 90" ...which projector did you get?

[buzzsaw]

And I thought my 42 high def Plasma TV was the shizzy! How's the resolution on those projection tv's? I know nothing about them.

I have a InFocus 4805 set back about 13' great picture I am very happy with. Watching movies from DVD is excellent, baseball is great. Come fall I will add Hi Def as the InFocus will also project that. Saving that for football season, Gets to busy around here in the summer for it. My daughter has movie night with her friends on Saturdays and they have stopped going out to movies they would rather watch them at home. Of course having a 1000watt surround sound does not hurt for that theater sound..Makes my fishing pictures look pretty good as I can also view JPG's

I just Googled the Infocuson projector and man is that ever seem reasonable!! Sounds like you have a captive audience going. I'd be curious how a projector TV will do with High Def, it seems almost impossible to think it can come anywhere near a Plasma or LCD screen... what are you hearing about that?

[rundrave]

speaking of High Def, I have yet to have a Twins Game broadcast on the HD-FSN channel here. How about you guys closer to the cities?

I can watch it on the regular FSN channel, but last year it I was able to watch quite a few game here in HD.

Was just curious to see if I was the only one missing out.

Plasma is the way to go but.... when you factor in the cost for what I can get with the projector I am very happy with the results. My neighbor is an installer for Charter and has done one other with Hi Def and said the picture was fantastic. So far I think Charter is only offering 10-11 hi def channels right now so I am hoping that will increase in number by fall. I keep tweaking the system so adding the hi def may be final upgrade. I will say that if you have not balanced your surround sound buy a pressure meter and do it. That tweak makes a home theater come alive..there is a home theater forum out there you should google it, tons of information on it.

Don't underestimate the LCD screens, they are tack sharp! Very very nice.
