Can anyone recommend a good native 1080p projector for home use? The trick is I'm trying to project onto a wall that's roughly 19ft away from where the projector would be placed. So I would need a projector that lets you modify the size of the "screen" because at the range the "screen" would be too large for the wall.. I don't want to have to place the projector in the middle of the room or on the ceiling. Does anyone have any recommendations?

I know jack squat about the current technology of projectors, but I've used a poo ton in schools over the years.  First off, how much do you know about projection?  If not much, I found this link here to be helpful:

https://www.digitaltrends.com/home-theater/should-you-buy-a-projector/

Looking at your space, you'll really have to cover those windows when you want to project. 

Then make sure you have enough projection clearance so it's not clipping your heads.  Projecting that far is going to introduce a fair number of other possible interference. 

Sorry, I'm kind of rambling here.  Projectors can be super dope with the size and immersion.  My neighbor has a little cheapo projector he bought for his kids that he sets up in his backyard.  It's OK.  Not great, passable.  It's not mine so I don't critique him.

At school, the church that rents out my space installed a $15k projector that can cut through all the stage lights and still deliver their image on their 24' wide screen.  I bet that's above your budget...

If you can, go to Home Theatre stores to see what they have.  Talk to an expert (so not Best Buy) and do your shopping that way.

Good luck!  Hopefully this was somewhat helpful.

      First 4 NFL starts - Tyler Shough

      Has anybody actually said anything of that sort? (if they did, I missed it) I get why some folks rely on stats. I don't, and honestly I'm not sure why people keep trying to convince me I should. (it ain't gonna happen) 😕 Consistency is my big thing too, and the lack of it is why I want to move on from Bryce. But again, that's an argument I make without denying that he can indeed play in (and yes, win) NFL games. Hating bad QB play is fine. Denying when you see good QB play is silly. Let's be real for a second... This may not be you specifically, but there are some folks for whom Bryce can do absolutely nothing to win their approval. Some are always gonna want a bigger / stronger / faster / more athletic (in some cases, Newtonesque) quarterback even if Bryce does start to play consistently. At that point, they'll just shift the argument from "we can't win with Bryce" to "well, we can't keep winning with Bryce" 😖 You know all this as well as I do. So again, I want to move on from Bryce as well. I'd happily (hell, merrily) keep him as a backup, but I doubt there's a realistic path to that happening. But no matter what, I'm gonna keep my debate points based in reality, and I'm not gonna be responsive to "he just sucks" level persuasion. Is any of that unreasonable? 🤔

      Apples and oranges.   No one is coming for Jon Snow and the neutral party when they compliment Bruce when it is just normal talk about a game.  Which is the literal picture you are trying to paint above.  I mean that’s exactly what you argued. if you start a thread that is about the future of the franchise at QB going forward at QB and what we should do or are thinking! Yeah, the anti Bryce crowd is going to very vocal on that thread because the literal topic is extending Bryce and the future at QB (which is what an anti Bryce position is literally about.  Moving on.  The future) This thread? I literally called out people in their feelings wanting to make this about Bryce and their hurt feelings eroding over.  You can find where I literally calls them out go make another Bryce thread if they didn’t want to talk Saints and the most relevant thing about them.  And the thread went exactly as we all knew it would.   Bryce deserved player of the week talk for Atlanta.  I have always acknowledged his great games.  A shame there are only two
