not exactly bar related...but with the Thanksgiving holiday coming up...thought this was pretty amazing....that 50% of people in USA would rather sit at home and watch tv than to see the game live....

Motorola Survey: Nearly Half of Americans Would Rather Watch College or Professional Football on a High Definition TV Than in Person

Nov 14, 2007 09:00:00 (ET)


HORSHAM, Pa., Nov 14, 2007 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ -- Americans are gearing up for Thanksgiving -- turkey, getting together with family and friends ... and football. But a recent Motorola survey found that more people would rather watch the big game on a high-definition TV than in person.

Motorola Inc. (MOT, Trade ), maker of equipment and services that enable customers to receive high-definition programming, recently commissioned a survey among more than 1,000 adults nationwide and found that 45 percent would rather watch college or professional football on a high-definition TV than watch the game in person.

Only one in three respondents (or 32 percent) indicated they would rather watch a college or professional football game in person.

"The survey results really speak to the popularity of high-definition programming," said Doug Means, Motorola corporate vice president and general manager, Home and Networks Mobility. "The color, the clarity and the crispness of a sporting event delivered in high definition is almost like being there -- but from the comfort of your own home."

The survey also found that more men than women would rather watch football on a high definition TV than in person (51 percent of men vs. 41 percent of women).

Meeting the Demand for HD Content

Motorola works with programmers and operators to deliver increasing amounts of high-definition content to consumers. Motorola recently introduced the Motorola DSR-6000 family of receiver-transcoders that allows both MPEG-4 and MPEG-2 compression technologies to work within the same network to increase the amount of high-definition programming that can be delivered to consumers.

The acknowledged leader in video network solutions, Motorola has already deployed more than 2,500 digital headends in both MPEG-2 and MPEG-4. This leadership extends to IPTV headends and cable video networks. As a result, more programmers in North America deploy Motorola satellite video delivery network solutions than any other solution. Motorola is a world leader in digital set tops, having shipped more than 60 million cable set tops and more than two million IPTV set tops.

About the Survey

Motorola commissioned Opinion Research Corporation (ORC) to conduct interviews from November 2-5, 2007 with 1,009 consumers, 18 years of age or older, living in private households in the continental United States. The sample comprised 502 men and 507 women. The sampling error associated with a sample size of 1,009 is plus/minus two to three percentage points at a 95 percent confidence level. ORC weighted the survey results by four demographic characteristics: age, sex, geographic region, and race, to ensure reliable and accurate representation of the total U.S. adult population.

Inspired by our vision of Seamless Mobility, the people of Motorola are committed to helping you get and stay connected simply and seamlessly to the people, information, and entertainment that you want and need.

Now we're talking, I just read this article today about the drinking age being lowered to 18 from 21...

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/20249460/

Though I could care less for my own personal benefit, being above 21 - but my position here is this - come on already, we know "KIDS" under 21 are drinking....why hide it? I believe in teaching young adults to respect alcohol....banning it only makes it cooler to do!!! Young adults are exploring, learning to be adults, and law or not, its going to happen.

my 2 cents..

Looking for a graphic designer - though we're doing OK right now - I feel it would be great to team up with a graphics specialist - as New York Bar Store wants to have cutting edge graphics and designs -

From Google Checkout e-mail alert:

Holiday Shipping & Return Policy


Each year when I post these holiday policies I realize - wow, soon snow will be covering the ground, Santa suits on the street corners, christmas lights, and of course the manic holiday shoppers!

This year I optimistically hope that everyone gets a bit more proactive - one reason of course to make sure they get the perfect gift - but also this year Christmas falls on a MONDAY! Know what that means? UPS orders will have to be delivered by Friday, Dec 22nd! I have a feeling UPS may be open on Saturday this year, but have not heard officially yet....

We're featuring this great java cell phone app - the Mobile Bartender by Mobatech! This great cell phone software keeps a full database of drink and cocktail recipes right on your mobile phone!

My personal favorite part of this awesome bartender companion is that is has a random feature - which allows you to always have a new and unique drink to serve at the bar - and for those indecisive friends and patrons at the bar - them them take a quick pick for a shot or drink with this nifty mobile bartender!

New York Bar Store is always looking for creative individuals, and this is another example of non traditional ways of expanding our reach as a bar products shop!
