I was really hoping they could keep the defense that last drive...but this superbowl ended just like last years....with a last minute drive being done by two teams within the last 3 minutes of the game, and the last 30 second drive being foiled. It is actually amazing to see how similar the last two superbowls have been. I definately felt for the Cardinals. The stats showed that they played a better game, except for penalty stats...which showed a little about how the game went.

But, what about that goal line stand for the Cardinals...where they stood firm, then had that penalty on the feild goal, and having to stand firm again for a second consecutive time. I was hoping that was the turning point, and for a small period of time, it was.

That play that ended the first half was definately a game changer though....instead of the Cardinals going in with a lead, they went into the half with a 10 point deficit.

I still don't think that was a touchdown though. The ball didn't seem to break the goal line when he was "down"......

Arizona still won in Vegas.
6.5 point spread means the Arizons fans are getting paid!!!


It was a great game though. The points were close enough all game to make it exciting

(Un)happy Monday everyone...

Steelers also couldn't get a break on all the calls & replays against them though... If you factor all that in, the game spread might've been at least 7 more points in their favor. What I find most frustrating about the Steelers is that always blow their early leads and create a last minute crisis recovery to win. I guess that makes for more interesting games. But, it makes them look kinda lame for always blowing comfortable leads for no good reason. <shrugs> Still, Steelers won, and I'm happy.

so i went to circuit city yesterday before the game, and that place is a ZOO... never seen that many ppl there before... speaking of which, most of the merchandise isn't even marked down all that much. most of the stuff is just Internet prices without the shipping cost.

that's probably because they're still receiving any left over merchandise from their warehouse(s) to liquidate. once that's gone, they will begin to close shop permanently.

@ jedi or Cesar or Speed or Xrider or KK

This is the card i have in my computer: Nvidia Geforce 7350 LE

But if i upgrade to a larger monitor and play say Bioshock (which crawls on my current card) I would need to get a better card?

What about this one: http://www.newegg.com/Special/ShellShocker.aspx
I also still want to retain my TV tuner capabliites



Here are some more and i am looking to stay under $100

@ speeddemon, are you going to k1 irvine, or k1 ontario?

@ lesper, if you still have that old gateway, its not worth fixing up the video card... (what computer do you have right now?)

i have the HP M8120N. i remember when i was looking at getting the computer the recommended upgrades were the video card and the power supply. i also want to stick with nvidia just to avoid any possibly capabilities issues.

Speed with be in Ontario

@lesper: that 8500GT in the first link would be a fairly better upgrade from what you currently have and it should still give you all of the same qualities as your current 7350 card.

i'll look up the specs on your HP later on so i can see what would be a better card for your machine
