hdtvs are the biggest competition to live sporting events. once prices reach a certain level you can buy a bigger and newer one on what you sometimes spend in one weekend. thats tough to swallow.
yep also those UHDTVs are pretty sweet and are also coming down in price. That more then likely will be my Christmas present to myself next year.
I live in Mississippi and travel for a living... like 220 nights a year in a hotel. When I get home on the weekends, I just want to hibernate. We still try to make to at least one football game every year though. Usually can catch a few baseball games when I'm working in Baton Rouge.
