    The game is on the YES network? Has anyone tried to watch it on an older TV, you know preHD and prewidescreen? I just wonder it the they are using old tech from all the way around and new TVs cannot handle that well.

    I think Bigfoot is blurry, that's the problem. It's not the photographer's fault. Bigfoot is blurry. And that's extra scary to me, because there's a large, out-of-focus monster roaming the countryside. Run. He's fuzzy. Get outta here.

    WOI should be sold back to Iowa State. I sometimes wonder if their local news is done in a rental storage garage on the East side of Des Moines. John Walters should have taken Heidi Soliday's place at KCCI instead of promoting Garman.

    Next year Big XII Network games are all going to be HD.

    The games looked bad in omaha also. Tonight it is on FSN.

    Re: Why does WOI BB games look like crap

    Oh, they look like crap cause they are using stand def cameras and we see the game on a HD big screen which just amplifies the crappy picture to our eyes. It probably looks okay on a std def 19inch tv.

    Don't you talk about Andy Garman like that!!!

    But seriously anybody is better than Walters, he is terrible.

    The games look like crap because we play like crap.

    Re: Why does WOI BB games look like crap

    I agree with the point about the newer tvs it looking worse. I have a normal, non-widescreen, non-HD tv. The picture doesn't look all the great, but it's OK.

    My buddy has a 46 inch widescreen HD tv and it looks much worse. Since the newer TVs are meant to point out all the details, I think it magnifies the crappyness of standard-def.
    I don't drink the Kool-Aid, and I am done making excuses. Only keeping it real...
