  • Need help setting up PlayStation 2?

    I recently bought a pre-owned PlayStation 2. I have it set up except for one problem. When I turn the system on, the green light comes on to indicate the system is working but I don't see the game on my screen. All I see is my regular tv. This question probably has a simple answer, but right now even that is eluding me. Any help would be appreciated.

  • Curious NASCAR question?

    Why do people ask "Who's going to win-insert race here-every week?" I'm really curious about this. Do you really want to know? Do you belong to a fantasy league and want the picks? Do you want to know what others think? Every week the same question-phrased differently-is presented.

  • How would you suggest controlling costs in NASCAR without affecting racing quality?

    Recently, Kenny Wallace on NASCAR RaceDay built by The Home Depot and Mark Ashenfelter and Marty Smith on ESPN.com have talked about/written about how the cost of racing in NASCAR has become nearly untenable for some teams. How would you control the spiraling cost of being in NASCAR-at all 3 major levels-without diminishing racing quality? Please be as specific as possible.

  • Dream IRL Schedule?

    Recently on IndyCar.com there was a community question posted: if you could pick your perfect 20 race schedule, what would it be? Do not pick unrealistic venues like Europe right now. Only North American and Asian venues. What would you pick?

  • NASCAR Broadcasters?

    In a blog posted on Nationalspeedsportnews.com, Sheena Baker ripped a new one on ESPN's NASCAR broadcast team. Among her comments-you can see the full blog at the site above-she wrote that she is tired of "Rusty Wallace talking about "fast hot rods"; Brad Daugherty's uniformed opinions and Dr. Jerry Punch's making every lap sound like the last lap of the 1976 Daytona 500. I agree with EVERYTHING she wrote. Do you like ESPN's broadcast team? If so, why? If you like Fox's or TNT's teams better, why or why not? The most thoughful, reasoned answer gets the 10 points.

  • Question regarding playing video with QuickTime, RealPlayer and Windows Media Player?

    I'm having a major video playing problem that I hope someone can help with.

    I'm having problems playing video from a website with every player I have. I have used QuickTime, RealPlayer and Windows Media Player, and changed browsers from Internet Explorer to Firefox and still the problems haven't been resolved. The problem is the video itself; the audio is fine, but the video constantly sticks, freezes and stops. I have tried to contact the manufacturers to no avail. Any help is greatly appreciated.

  • False Advertising?

    I have a dliemma. I belong to many Yahoo! groups. A couple of them are featuring someone who "personally" invites people to join their group. The groups are actually fan clubs for the person in question, The implication seems to be that this individual is an active member of their groups. That is not necessarily the case. Someone got really upset with the invidiual who the group is about recently and that has led to a email back and forth between the upset indvidual on one side and the actual subject of the group and the group moderators on the other, neither of whom is the group subject. I really like the subject of the groups-we've communicated via email outside of the Yahoo! group and I don't want to get them in trouble or have them stop liking me, but I'm also not sure that this isn't false advertising. Any help and answers will be appreciated.

  • TV Announcers?

    Does anyone know an online source to find out what announcers-play-by-play and analyst/analysts-are broadcasting various sporting events over national over-the-air and sports-specific networks? I know that USA Today prints a list for the NFL games during the season but I cannot always get that paper. Why do I want this information? You might call me an announcer junkie. Several years ago, I wanted to be a sportscaster-I no longer want to be-but I am still extremely fascinated with broadcasters , particularly which broadcasters CBS and Fox have working NFL games. I cannot get NFL Sunday Ticket on DirecTV. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • Employment Sites?

    I am trying to become employed. I post on all the major search engines. There is a service called MyJobHunter.com which says it will post my information on all job boards at one time. It will cost $39.95 for the first month and $9.95 per month thereafter until I become employed. If anyone has used this or a similar service, please tell me what your experience with it was and do you think this would be money well spent?

  • I have a question regarding gaining employment.?

    I am currently seeking employment. I have a limited amount of work experience and gaps in my resume. I am registered with many job search engines-including Yahoo! HotJobs. All of these job boards offer professional resume writing for a fee. Two questions: One, should I have my resume professionally done?; and two, what is a good price to pay for such a service? I would especially like to hear from people who have used an online service to get professional resumes and employment about their experiences.

  • I have a question about people sending me employment opportunities.?

    I am registered on the major job posting boards. Frequently, I get emails stating that a company-usually foreign-wants to hire me. They claim that all I have to do is accept payments for them through either a PayPal or Western Union account. Are any of these "offers" legitimate?
