That ad drove me nutso.

I liked Jerry's (Seinfeld, not Manuel) point about the monotony of commercials during baseball telecasts. "Can we get a few more sponsors?" It's been like that for as long as I can remember. The same three or four damn commercials, again and again and again.

Giuseppe Franco. Derek Jeter's Edge. I remember years ago, my sister and I both were able to recite along with the Garcia y Vega cigar commercials because we saw them again and again.[/quote:1dr41egl]


Interesting thought. (radio commercials are the same way too)

I know nothing about this stuff, so this is all me just talking what comes to my head, but maybe since you're selling ads for a station/month that really is only giving you ratings for 3-4 hours 25 days a month, they can't quite charge that much for ads(hence why we see so many local dealerships and such, probably more affordable) and don't attract that many clients due to that reduced window. And since the prime-time window is very small, they have to play the ads then. I mean, I'm sure if you told Ford you'd play the Edge commercial twice as much, but not during the games, they'd pass altogether.


I'd like to see them create more than one ad though, so instead of seeing the same exact commercial 42 times, you'd at least see 3 different ones 16. maybe ads more dynamic. (I think this is something all companies should do anyway) i tend to really like the Geico "Watching the game" ads where they give you some interesting fact.

Was the mound really that color? It looks almost purple.

I was there last night too and noticed that the mound looked 'different'. I was not sitting where I usually do though, so I had a different angle. It may always look like that, what do I know?

You have a better camera than me obviously. :-D [/quote:3fskn8x5]

Having a good camera alone does not get you a good photo; you actually need to be a good photographer!

There are plenty "lay up" photos out there that even a 6 year old could take well. :-D But yeah, I don't really know what I'm doing in terms of aperture and f-stops and all that fun stuff

The Mets widened their wild card lead to 1.5 games.

Three up on Philly and six on Florida is nice.

Would you say that it put you in the shuffling madness?

Have fun with it Z - if you want something bigger to work with, let me know - I'm interested to see what you have in mind.

Non-calibrated monitor or not, it was still a great capture.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Indeed it was, DGW. I'm getting ninth-inning-tension-headache just looking at it.

KRod must take a hell of a stride. He's practically at the plate.
