Comments on: Run Into the Ground http://www.njnetscast.com/blog/2008/02/03/run-into-the-ground/ A die-hard New Jersey Nets fan hosts this popular fan-based podcast and accompanying blog Tue, 07 Sep 2010 02:53:31 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.7 hourly 1 By: Michael http://www.njnetscast.com/blog/2008/02/03/run-into-the-ground/#comment-6 Michael Mon, 04 Feb 2008 16:46:15 +0000 http://www.njnetscast.com/blog/2008/02/03/run-into-the-ground/#comment-6 Rob, I had a microphone problem with episode 26. My headset settings returned to default, unbeknownst to me until after the show. If you check the previous handful of episodes before 26 I believe the quality was there. I apologize to Rob and everyone out there, and will make sure the podcast audio quality returns immediately. Thanks for listening. Anything can happen in the playoffs...but if you can think of a scenario where the Nets beat Boston or Detroit, given the sample up to this point, let me know. -Michael Rob,

But, but,...were trying to make the playoffs. And then who knows....anything is possible. Sorry... I wanted to just try a management line to see if I could write it without laughing. The lack of heart is appalling. The Wolves, Grizzlies and Bobcats are different shades of bad but they have more heart and pride than the two NY/NJ teams. The sound of ep 26 was even more horrible than usual. Im not asking for thebasketballjones.com quality but cmon. Go to the M-Audio site and get yourself the basic podcast package. I can record fine on my old Thinkpad P3-800, 256m ram, it just takes a little fiddling. I listen to podcasts that are recorded on Skype that sound better than this. I usually am a 'content is king' kind of guy, i even have an old BW tv, so I dont need hifi sound, and hi def that to enjoy myself but the quality is low enough overall to affect the enjoyment of the show. Mic quality is important but Ive heard amazing results from 75 to 150$ mics. Maybe looking into a compressor (bought an Alessis in the fall on eBay for less than 100$) to even out your sounds would be a good idea. You dont have to spend a mint on equipment (under 200$) but you can definitely increase the audio quality. >If Kristic is not ready to play 20 minutes a night,
