Up for grabs this time is a Yamaha DVD-c750 5 disc cd/dvd/SACD changer complete with the original box and packing. I do not know if I packed the remote however, but it is ready to go. The requirements will be that each participant must pick the winners of this weekend's football games. The one that gets the most correct will win, with Monday night being the tie-breaker, should there be one. If there is still a tie after that, then the winner will be chosen by random number drawing with the wife calling the number. All entries must be posted no later than kick-off time Sunday.
Have fun with this one guys!
THIS IS FOR NFL GAMES ONLY!

Damn you had to go and make it complicated. All my mind can handle is a "say in" right now lol.....
Thats ok though, I have gotten more than enough Karma from you already.

Not in, but way cool kharma !
Here's a tip for you participating: in the Rams/Packers game ........ pick the Packers. :eek: I'm not kidding !Sal Palooza -
Nice Karma. Not in because I own this model. A very nice all-in-one unit. I believe that it most likely has a Philips Laser/tray assembly because the software it uses as its interface is the same as that used by Philips in its DVD players in the same time period?
Also, a good intro to SACD (it might also do DVD-Audio--have to check the manual on that!).

Straight up picks? Excellent - I'm used to having to keep the spread in account.
NFL picks for a Karma instead of pick-a-number? Also an excellent idea.
In order per ESPN's schedule listing:
TEN over Pit
NYG over Sea
JAX over Cin
SAINTS over Car (Laissez les Bon Temps Rouler!)
OAK over Hou (6-point underdog pick)
PHL over Buf
KC over Indy (someone's got to win...)
ARI over Min
SF over City of Tampa
NE over Jets
SD over Denver
GB over Atl
=-= MNF =-=
DET over Chi - final total points 48 (If I have to pick a final score, I'll go with DET 31, Chi 17)Current polk speakers:

Interesting. Thanx NJ for a great karma idea. AFAICT the following games are off the board since everyone picked the same team:
NYG-SEA
NO-CAR
NE-NYJ
SD-DEN
GB-ATL
Mole' was the only one to pick Da Bears on MNF...so this may be decided by 4:30 today with most of the PM games off the board.Current polk speakers:
Family room 5.1: TC265i R/L, VM10 Center, RC65i surrounds (couldn't match the TCs)
Basement non-dedicated 7.1 HT: SDA-CRS+ R/L, 255c-LS Center, LSiFX surrounds, RC80i in-ceiling rear surround, plus Wharfedale 12" sub (some day I'll get around to building 15" F-20 sub). -
Obviously John gets to tell us who won...but from what I can tell mole' is perfect so far in the games that mattered, Pycroft is the only other still in contention one game behind, and it will all come down to MNF since they've got the same picks for the rest of the PM games today. Congrats to both of them.

I thought someone said if the Lions won I would win, and the Lions won. I never double checked and it's WAY too early in the morning to think. I'll check it for sure later, but if someone else does in the meantime, that's fine with me
