Though you’ll see big sales of televisions leading up to the Super Bowl, Consumer Reports says that you’ll get even better deals in late February and early March, when retailers clear out older sets to make way for the new.

If you are a Patriots fan you will want a flat screen. ;-)

If the Superbowl was shown on the FX channel at 9PM CST on Wednesday, I would be very pissed because that would have meant that I missed an episode of ‘Justified’.

I bought a Samsung about 2 weeks before Black Friday. Very happy with it. And paid a fair price for it.

Will be watching on our 60in 3D LED, but I don’t really give a damn about the game or the commercials.

I’ve fallen out of love with the NFL during recent years, but still enjoy the playoffs and the Super Bowl. In spite of the ‘Ballghazi’ scandal, I hope the Patriots trash Seattle. I hate that team, and city.

For a big screen and a sports event, you really need a refresh rate of 240. With a smaller screen (42 inches or less) you could probably get by with 120.

I’ve had a Samsung HD TV for about four years now. Great set, no problems.

I’m still using a 19” TV from 1983. Fortunately, I don’t watch the Super Bowl.

I think Samsung makes the very best TVs.

I’ve owned a 52in LCD for 6 years now, and it’s still as good as the day we took it out of the box.

We bought a new Samsung LED last year(gave the other one to the kids), and it has been terrific! One perk, if you have a Samsung phone or tablet, you can install the ‘SmartView’ App, and watch your TV on your mobile device, from anywhere within range of your home wireless network. Comes in handy sometimes. You can also use it as a remote.

Lighten up, Francis. Final score: Seahawks 44, Patriots 9.

Saying the Seahawks are thugs proves you are dumber than I tell people.

I hate both teams and cities. I hope an asteroid plows into the game at kickoff!

I don't care who wins either, but why punish Glendale, AZ?

I have it on sometimes but only for the commercials. Bud's report that they are discontinuing the clydesdales. Love those horses.

I bought a bid Samsung LCD TV and it died very soon after.

I made a promise never to buy anything Samsung ever again and have kept that
