EMERGENCY! I need video help in NYC!

JWsleep · 01-12-2006, 01:59 PM

Disaster! For the first time this year, I can't watch the game live. And, to make things worse, I don't have a VCR or DVD recorder (I only have a DVD player...).

Is there ANYONE in NYC who can record the game on DVD for me? I will travel anywhere in the city to pick up a copy, and I'll provide a reward for whoever can help.

Please get back to me by PM or post if you can help!

THANKS!!!

I am seriously wondering what could prevent you from watching the game? I can't think of anything that I wouldn't move or blowoff in this situation. Priorities man!

My wife's first gallery opening in the city of New York--it's sort of a skins vs divorce thing. (Stunning that the art world hasn't shut down for the palyoffs!)

I'd have to pick watching the game in the back room of the gallery. All the guys who's wife had draged them to an art show during the playoffs will want to see the game even if they are not Skin fans. This will free up the wife's to take their time and look at all the art and make a purchase. So its a win win for every body. If that does not work go out and buy a cheap VCR for around $50.00 and you will have one for next time your wife has an art show during football season.

I like your thinking, Firstdown--I may buy the VCR. And I hope you're right abou freeing up those who want to look at art: it' will be the die-hards (and god knows we could use the cash!)!

All joking aside I hope she does well its tough market to break into. If you get a chance try to post some of her work so we can see.

JWsleep · 01-12-2006, 05:09 PM

Thanks, man. I will--when this skins crisis is resolved!

Go buy the VCR and do not listen to any TV or Radio and when you get home watch the game just as you would if it was a live game.

Yea give the man a break, I am in a similar position and I might not be able to watch the game because of significant other issues.

My signifigant other somehow gets a little less signifigant when the skins are on.

Dudes,
Let me telll you my story. On my first date with my wife I set her stratight. I told her right then and there that when the Redskins are playing I'm in front of a TV some where watching it no matter what family events or crisis there is!! That way she understood from the get go. She also wanted to have a September wedding in the worst way, my anniversary is August 13th. I told her that if we got married in September the first day of our honeymoon would be spent in a sports bar some where watching the Redskin game. Even my daughter moved up her birth date so Dad wouldn't be interupted from the football season. She was due the first weekend in September, her birthday is July 23rd.

Couldnt you find someone to TIVO it for your or use DVR and then just burn it on the a dvd.......You could get SIRUS and record it

JWsleep · 01-12-2006, 08:19 PM

Thanks guys.

Hooskins--it's tough what we do for love and family, eh?

Summo--Wow! You've got the proper set up. Nice of your daughter to get off on the right foot with dad! (My wife's been great all season, but this one she put the foot down... if only we were playing Sunday...)

CantheTuna--my wife is happy I go to a bar to watch the skins: that way she doesn't have to feel "insignificant" every week!

If none of my TiVo friends step up, I'll buy the VCR--I would have spent as much going to the Falls bar anyway.
