Yes, I remember some idiot picking a $600 tv over 2k bet jamaica cash last yearComment -
No, I have money.Comment -
Good for you if you have money... but why buy if u have the points... and profane... I don't think americans can use sbr points for dollars anyway...Comment -
Wouldn't it be a better deal to purchase a bunch of $50 gift cards and use them to buy a tv?Comment -
If you are going to be gaming on that tv, i caution against getting a plasma.Comment -
What's the best buy 50 dollar card like 1500 points... I would have to do the math for each... and u could get the best buy guys to do the set up and junk for freeComment -
Use your points for Amazon gift certificates. Then buy TV from there.... works out much better for you, I'd bet.Originally posted by ebbearsfb1Comment -
yeah i always thought the tv's and all that shit in there was just window dressing to get people pumped up but no one really buys them because there's better deals in thereOriginally posted by sickler
you could conceivably spend it on pizza certs and ebay them to make the most $$....but i didnt say thatComment -
Thanks randy why's that? Just something that interested me, I have enough points for it so figured id ask about itComment -
Good info here thanks fellows... gonna do some calculations now... of whats the best deal... lol drink seems like they could take some timeComment -
you could get $1050 in gift cards for the pts a 42 tv costs
that could actually get you a decent tv and surround sound system and/or bluray with gc'sComment -
Still images can burn in, so things on the HUD, menu's or a pause screen. I know the newer generation plasma's deal with this a lot better but its always a risk and why take a risk with a brand new tv.Originally posted by ebbearsfb1Comment -
NO
I want a SBR BIKE or IPADComment -
You would have to have it on the screen for hours for retention to set in. That shouldn't be a deal breakerOriginally posted by OMGRandyJacksonComment -
thanks drink..
im on the big computer rather than my phone.. so gonna do my research
good stuff man..

18190(points I have) / 1168(points i give up) = (15* 50) = 750 dollars

haha i had them from football season..
i was doing really well.. i am gonna start posting my plays for march madness, i would have more but my mother recently passed away so i havent made many plays in the past 2 months...
hoping to get back into it this week..
and sickler thanks for the information.
im leaning towards buying 15 best buy cards..
reason for best buy over amazon... is they have a free 2 year warranty, they put the tv in for free... and i could get get a blue ray player or sound system with some of them since i know the kids that work at the one in my town...
since we have some smart guys in here and im not getting it at the sbr store...
any tv recommendations?Comment -
bro, sorry to hear about your mother.Originally posted by ebbearsfb1
lookin forward to march madness as well
as far as tv's, you'll get a lot of this and that from the guys here. best bet is to check reviews at places like cnet, avsforum, and places like that. you can look at the reviews from places like best try but some of them might be loaded or from people who didn't even purchase the damn thing.
some 60"er's can be had for sub $1000 if you catch it the right weeks
stay away from the dynex, westinghouse and crap like that and you should be ok after reading some reviewsComment -

Bears kicked all sorts of ass this year in the sportsbook. I remember very well this son-of-a-bitch had like 6 Top Sportsbook Winner Badges under his name at one time!Originally posted by blackbeSStdamn bears, where you get so many points from?! you need to post up your plays so we can all kill it
Good for you, ebbears.
Not gonna lie and say I'm not a little bitter towards you....but still, good for you, pal.
Comment -
Haha thanks opie... yeah I haven't bet in the sportsbook in well over a month.. since most of the time I've just been on my phone since I'm running around with hospitals and shyt..... and blacksteet.Comment -
I'm gonna check out the info and site you recommended thanks brother.... and big daddy? What you mean? I agree with the tv over the money a year later... probably lost the 2k cash that weekComment -

A 42" plasma for less points, that's the one he was considering buyingOriginally posted by InTheDrinkComment -
Sounds like plasma aren't as good... gonna use the cards to go to best buy .. I could use a big tv with some sound system stuffComment -
Chevy vs. Ford. Plasma vs LCD/led. Just depends on which you prefer. Plasmas are still very good IMHO.Originally posted by ebbearsfb1Comment -
Good stuff black.. I'm making a deposit tomrrow for march madness hope to see ya in my thread.. need that money to last me until mlb...Comment -
yeah im in a similar boat in the near future...looked at tv but i dnkComment -
Yeah frozen... its one of those things were a big tv would be a nice gift for the house but its not a end all be all time thing.Comment -
Ebbears...Originally posted by ebbearsfb1
Sincere sympathy for you on your Mom's passing.
As a sports bar owner I have purchased literally dozens
of flat screens. You could do worse than Best Buy so that might be
your best option. Nce to have a store connect also.
I like the sharpness of plasmas and LED's but that's all
personal preference. There are arguments for LCDs as well.
You should be able to get a good picture and great sound for under 1K.
Good luck on March Madness and happy viewing.Comment -
Thank you 19th hole... sbr has actually been a nice release from life lately even if its just for a few minutes... just sucks that I'm 23 and gotta go thru life without her.... thanks for the information about the tvs.. where do you own a sports bar? And is the name of your bar 19th hole? Cause it sounds pretty sweetComment
