Eighty Four Feet by One Hundred Five Feet!!!!!
Oh, and DON'T call it a JumboTron...that is a Sony trademark.
Crown Vision is the new GIANT High Definition video board by DAKTronics at Kauffman Stadium.
Currently, Crown Vision is the largest HD video board in North America. Sure, the replays are amazing, but I was more impressed with the amount information that was available on the Crown Vision board. The casual will be impressed and the hard core fan who lives and dies on the stats will both enjoy this great improvement at Kauffman Stadium.
Now, to go along with this massive board, it helps that the product on the field appears to be much improved so far. But even I will admit, it is April. A LOT of baseball is to be played be this season.

Worth note, of course, is a BIG CONGRATULATIONS on the Second Consecutive and Eighth overall National Championship for the University of Tennessee Lady Volunteers.
After a couple of very close games, the Lady Vols got a 16 point win over the Stanford Cardinal.

Today is the 49th Anniversary of the introduction of America's first Astronauts. NASA's "Mercury Seven" soon became household names.
As you can probably imagine, several of them are no longer with us. Gus Grisson perished in the Apollo I accident and others died of various causes over the years. Today, only John Glenn and Scott Carpenter survive.
I am left to wonder if any of the Apollo astronauts will still be alive when we return to the moon in 11 years.

I will admit that I did not see the testimony of General Petraeus in front of the Senators yesterday. After I have time to review, I will offer some comments.
For now, I think General Petraeus is looking forward to getting back to Baghdad. It is much safer there. The most dangerous place in the world? Between a United States Senator and a television camera!!!

Add you comments as you have time. Thanks for reading.
