Default The Stanley Cup on a Pioneer 60" Kuro...

Watching the Stanley Cup on a 60" Kuro is heaven...plain and simple. Sport mode + Auto display is eye candy. I can't get over how the blur is missing from the speed that I always saw on LCD TVs.

Very happy with this TV. If you're a sports fan, Plasma is an awesome investment.

It's like I'm sitting at the Joe Louis Arena watching this in person.

I'm glad you love it jc! People just don't understand till they have a Kuro at home, what all the "fuss" is about, it's the closest to perfect as a display has come. As soon as you watch your first HiDef' move or show on it you wonder why you didn't get one sooner, and it's very very hard to enjoy any other displays besides a 9G...

I hope it last you for years to come & everytime you watch it makes you as happy as the first time set eyes on it.

Yeah, for some reason Hockey looks a little more fantastic in HD especially on the Kuro! Maybe it's the colors against the ice.

Even though I don't have a Kuro, I LOVE watching my Detroit Red Wings in HD. Here in my part of Texas, we don't have VersusHD. So I'm enjoying it on NBC HD.

Maybe next year I'll be watching Detroit get their 3rd straight Cup on a Kuro, or something better than what I have.

Any HD set is better than regular cable on a regular tv.

LETS GO RED WINGS!!!!
