Can someone tape the Rose Bowl for me please??
« on: Jan 04, 2006, 06:30:27 AM »
Hey guys, being that I am in Japan and the TV here only gets about 15 channels, I highly doubt that I will be able to catch the Rose Bowl game tomorrow, well, this evening for you guys.

The game is 8p Wed. EST, which is 10am Thursday for me.

So, I will be awake and here on the ol' internet, so I could just keep reloading espn.com, but that is so lame.

So I was wondering if someone would be willing to tape the game for me, if you are watching it anyways, and then I can send you some $$ or paypal you some $$, for the cost of the tape and for shipping :gap:

Then when I get back to America the 3rd week this month, then you could ship it to me and I can check it out :gap:

Let me know if you can do it!! I would really appriciate it!!

Thanks in advance,
BigMike

I got you covered BM, and if you are coming back through LAX you can just pick it up on your way home. I'm 10 mins. off the I-5.

Boom. That's whats gonna happen right there :popcorn:

I will be at LAX Jan. 16th around lunch time. I might then be heading up towards Relands area, then swing over on the 205 and head back to I5 and then head for Fresno.

Where can we meet up? :thumbs:

wow.. I can't believe Texas won.

I don't really like USC, I like Reggie Bush and I like Vince Young, but obviously Bush didn't do jack all game and had a turn over early on....

But I wanted USC to win because West coast teams never get enough credit, so I was really going for USC, but they didnt pull it off.

I have been listening to ESPN live radio and I have been watching a live website with live updating/reloads... I listened to the 2nd quarter of the game, the first score from USC starting the 2nd half, and then I left to eat lunch over in Kanda with Misato, and then when I got back home, it was the last drive for Texas, they had the ball at about mid field with 2mins to go and I was really hoping USC could hold em

USC's defense isnt the best and it showed. Man, to bad FSU didn't knock them off back a couple of months ago. Bush KILLED us with over 500 total yards. hahahahaha

Anyways, Looking forward to watching the tape of this game, down to the wire, great game, I love those kind of games :thumbs:

I just found out that USC had the ball at 4th and 1 yard, and they went for it and didnt get it, and thats how Texas had the ball for their last scoring drive. wow!

I have heard of someone ruining you taping a game, but someone ruining it for themselves by finding out how they won???

Yeah Mike, you'll love this one, even if you don't like Vince Young.  He played a hell of a game and it showed.  Hope you have an easier trip back than you did on the way over there! :thumbs:

Got it on VHS and my newest little toy DVD. I taped it on DVD-R with my new DVD recorder took 3 discs but I did have to start it early, hope you like Oprah :rofl:

The VHS is of course crappy quality but it is on the entire tape and the DVD would have only been on 2 discs if  I hadn't started it during Oprah. I had to take Co-Pilot to his bowling league and wasn't sure I'd get back in time. The DVD work really cool and is great quality. I'll PM you with my address and Phone #'s so you can get in touch with me when you get into town.
