  1. I am trying to stream games from my PC (Dell Inspiron 5150 6 years old) to my TV (Samsung LN630). I have it connected with a VGA cable. I am able to display the desktop background and itunes background from the PC to the TV completely. However, today I wanted stream a hockey game from my PC to my TV, in part as a dry run for the football game tomorrow afternoon. I am able to, yet even though I have the game in full screen mode on my PC...it only takes up 30% or thereabouts on my TV. I wanted to know if any of you have this problem, and what I can do so the streaming game takes up the full screen of my TV like it does on the PC. I don't understand because when I close the game and go to the desktop background, or itunes, it shows up on the TV in full screen. I have Windows XP.
  2. adthe.net is good, I like it better than channelsurfing.
  3. AP has never lost being a smart leader, but he is not the same player he was when he first came to the Giants. In 2005 he was a pro bowl caliber player, then he got injured. In 2006, it was my feeling he was so-so. In 2007 he was better, but I did not get he was on the level of '04 and '05. In 2008 he was again pretty good until the end. This season, he was average and declining in terms of skill. My question, how would rate APs years with the Giants? Was 2005 his best season, did he ever come close to that form or was he just alright from then on, with his best asset being his brains? Was he a solid player in 06-08? How was he this season?
  4. Hopefully the old STHers get the fuck out with the PSLs and our home crowds actually are like a football not tennis match.
  5. Then why is it the Giants NEVER seem to have ANY presence at the VET or LINC? I find it embarassing how the Eagles rain or shine make it to the Meadowlands and we get shut out of Philly. It really makes us look like we are WAY below the Eagles base in terms of popularity, loyalty, and support, which is pathetic for a team in the New York market. This is NOT an expansion town.
  6. This is exactly what I have been saying for YEARS and Mike Francessa on WFAN had a segment to this on Monday. Our home STH fans are a disgrace to the Giants and the city of New York as it pertains to being a passionate, traditional Northeast city. In the 80s the place was rocking...but since the late 90s it gets worse year by year, and sadly wins/loses do not help. The crowd always sounds like a tennis match...and it is awful how many "loyal" STHers sell their seats to Eagle and Cowboy fans. You do not see this at Yankee Stadium or MSG. I really can not stand a New York team, a big market tradition, being overrun by road fans, especially when the Giants are in Philly, they have ZERO Giants fans. It really makes us look like an expansion team...and frankly it DOES affect the on field performance. Why is it Eli has to go Philly and deal with hostility yet McNabb can come to New York with the red carpet? Fuck our STHers...I hope they bleed bankrupt from the PSLs....I shed no tears. They suck and could learn something from Eagle/Jet fans.
  7. The Rangers have NEVER had problems drawing. They sold out for years even when they stank. Go look up on ESPN.com their attendance from the early part of this decade when they were a joke. I was in the blue seats...they are as passionate and everything New York sports is about. MSG and the Rangers base is everything the Giants fickle base isn't. I think the Yanks in the 80s was Steinny protest/fear of the Bronx.
  8. Ask me if I give a shit what you think. Far be it from me to care or place value on any of your opinions. Still got a hard on for stalking me. You're pathetic. Fuck off asshole. Fuck off.
  9. That's not true about the Rangers. They sell out every night, and going to a home game last year, that place is FULL of passion. Second, my understanding was the Giants had a bigger base than the Jets. In fact I was raised to believe the margin was bigger over the Jets than the Yankees over the Mets. The Jets PROPORTIONALY have more younger fans...but overall MORE younger fans are Giants fans because the Giants are number one in the region. Fair statement? If so...why the lack of buzz on wfan and in apparel? Have YOU noticed this being in NYC?
  10. The former...but the latter is still very important. Pride, passion, and tradition are all reasons along with winning that I like sports and choose to root for New York not sunbelt expansion teams. Giants fans in particular seem more like Falcon fans. I really don't get why there was so little buzz around New York this year for the Giants. Did YOU notice that living in New York...because me being in CT and listening to WFAN sure noticed the lack of apathy/buzz for the Giants. The Jets got more coverage on WFAN (our station) and in CT you didn't see people sporting Giants gear like Yankees apparel there or Skins in DC. Is football/the Giants THAT unpopular...are the Jets...the expansion choking Jets...more popular?
  11. Question......the Giants with Osi NOT injured do what this (2008) year?
  12. Problem is...Plax is stupid. Who is stay he doesn't pull the same bull shit he did all year. Being late...missing practices...cussing at the coach like he did during the SF game? I think it speaks volumes about how desperate we are/how pathetic the WR FAs are. Now Plax will be like the girl who you dump only to find out you need, he will have MORE power than ever.
  13. Kiwi overall was disappointing. I think it is clear he is a #3 DL...he is depth...but push came to shove he could not protect Tuck.
  14. You don't see that In Pittsburgh/Philly/Boston. Just us. One of the reason I root for New York teams is the passion and pride that comes from being a charter franchise, the tradition from a northeast city. Sad to see we are more like fickle Washington/sunbelt teams.
  15. No...you clearly misread and missed the point. Perhaps there's some transference going on as you have come as the one being stupid and pansyish.
  16. Also like to point out the Giants and PSLs were a big deal this offseason. I am so glad we have PSL fees. While they may not help fix the problem, at the very least it's nice to know some of those great loyal sellout fans we have are getting what they deserve.
  17. So you don't find it embarassing that the charter franchise of the nfl in the number one market in the US got punked by a lowlife franchise in Philly on national TV and continues to do so yearly? Maybe if I grew up a fan of DC or Atlanta teams I'd not care...but when I was raised to be a fan of New York part of the pride comes in rooting for tradition, pride, and passion that is supposed to coincide with a long standing franchise and city.
  18. No question the loss of Osi was a major factor for the downward trajectory of the Giants. Once Fred Robbins got hurt, the Giants had no other major force besides Tuck who could pressure the QB. Kiwi did not have a great year...and Tuck with those double teams was clearly getting tired and banged up. Add into the loss of Strahan and Mitchell (who sucked at coverage but could blitz) and you have lost THREE major pass rushing forces while adding just Kiwi. We had very poor depth on the DL...and reinforcements from the LB spot for pass rushing were no existent. I think the cumulative talent loss of Osi/Strahan/Mitchell/Plaxico was far too great a void.
