Should I complain?

I "won" a 32" Sharp Aquos flat-screen TV in an auction a couple of weeks ago. Neither the model nor the brand, for that matter, had been advertised up front, but the retail value of it and the accompanying dvd/vcr combo was listed at $827. I got it for $330 ... great deal, right? (The dvd/vcr combo retails for about $100.)

I ultimately found out it was to be a Sharp Aquos, which is cool. So, in talking to the company that donated it about getting it delivered, I ended up talking to the president (long story). I was interested in knowing the model number, so I could look at the specs. He didn't have the model number, but told me it would be a 1080p ("because they're not making the 720p anymore," he says.).

So, it finally arrived today, and it's a 720p! Retail value is about $550 or less.

Now, should I be pissed and should I complain, or just move on? I still got a pretty good deal, I guess.

Guess I'll just be happy with it ... it's a great TV, I did get a good deal on it (though not as good a deal as it would be if it were the "better" TV), and I helped the college athletics program in the process. Good all the way around. I don't have the need for the dvd/vcr combo -- got one that's also a dvd recorder -- so I'll use it for a charitable organization I chair in our auction.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      I have said if you out even an average QB into the offense we are averaging 25+ points a game. But that will never happen with Bryce under center.

      The defense is 28 out of 32 in salary cap allocation for 2025. We have a ton of resources tied up in the offense including the highest paid OL in the league multiple 1st round WR's and multiple recent draft picks across the offense at TE and RB and we have two 1000 yard backs. Bryce and company couldn't get past Tyler Shough and his crew in 2 games. That's all there is to it. You can spin it and put the entire onus on the defense to your heart's desire it doesn't change the fact that this is an OFFENSIVE team now. If you want to argue that we should revert back to a defensive identity as we have been in the past which has brought us success then I will agree with you on that. But as it stands the onus is on the offense because that is where we have invested through the nose. Dave Canales and Bryce Young need to do a hell of a lot better than they have against the rebuilding Saints who without us should only have 2 wins this season.

      Bryce is not trending up. He is the same QB he has always been. Bottom of the league in most categories.  If Canales thinks he can build a contender with Bryce then he is a bigger idiot then I thought.  Offense next year will have the same issues and be just as inconsistent as it was this year.  We have seen Bryce’a ceiling and it is 175 yards a game and that is not a QB you keep around as your starter. That is barely a backup.
