100 Hz
The problem with ghosting on CRT TVs is often down to the 100 Hz engine. I'm not sure if this exists in LCD TV's but the idea was to double the refresh rate of the picture to make it look smoother. However, many 100 Hz engines were not fast enough so on quick moving images, there was a motion blur. To combat this many TVs have a 'sports' mode which turns off the 100 Hz engine. If LCD TVs do a similar thing, there might be some with 'sports' modes. Snooker suffers from this problem too.
