KSU vs. CU is a rivalry according to my NCAA 2009 xbox football game  :eek:

You guys were also rivals with NU, and Kansas. Not sure where the :hornsdown one was

Are we still going to watch Big 12 men's basketball games through a gunky aquarium?  To the biting, pithy commentary of one David Armstrong?

f's is right. No HD is really lame. Of course I'd settle for SD that didn't look like crap at this point.

You gotta be kidding.  Ron may be senile but at least he's not under the wild delusion he is the most clever pun master ever . . .  :barf:

Ron may be senile

Precisely why he needs to hang it up. He's worse than Keith Jackson was at his lowest point (which was sad to watch). It's harder for me to listen to than Armstrong, but I guess it's just an issue of personal taste. Vitale these days makes me want to throw a harpoon through my TV.

I thought standard definition was archaic technology, but holy crap... you're still throwing harpoons!

if they were smart they would quit renting equipment and build out their own crap.  no reason they can't raise money with the success that this conference has had in both basketball and football.  i smell a weiser.

don't have hd too 'pensive

cox  :curse:

If you have an HDTV w/ a built-in digital tuner, you get the local (ABC, NBC, CBS, & FOX) in HD, even you you don't have COX digital (your tv's tuner will find all the other digital channels, it just can't unscramble them, which is all the cox digital box does). So this means you will get the Big12 Network games in hd if you have a TV that's an good at all.

Hard to believe HD is still that expensive.  Guess the economic collapse is worse than I thought.  Remember we're already past the time that they were supposed to have all-digital broadcasts the second time.  (first was in 2007 I believe.)
