BillnutinHouston Posted August 31, 2006 Posted August 31, 2006 I was under the impression that with the NFL ticket superfan package, most if not all of the games will be available in HD. Does anyone know if this is the case?Fez? 757055[/snapback] That would be HEAVEN but I have NOT heard that.
HurlyBurly51 Posted September 1, 2006 Author Posted September 1, 2006 That would be HEAVEN but I have NOT heard that. 757699[/snapback] Unfortunately, it's not true. They will show what the networks make available in HD, and thanks to CBS it'll only be three of the games from their package each week. Fox shows all of theirs, but of course that's NFC The rest are in sad 'ol SD, so while they're showing us in HD the first 2 weeks, I wouldn't get too used to it.

MDH Posted September 1, 2006 Posted September 1, 2006 Why the hell is CBS picking up the games AT Detroit and Chicago? 757753[/snapback] That's the way it's always worked. CBS broadcasts the interleague game hosted by the NFC teams and Fox broadcasts the ones hosted by the AFC teams.
Fezmid Posted September 1, 2006 Posted September 1, 2006 That would be HEAVEN but I have NOT heard that. 757699[/snapback] As Denny said, it's not true. How can DirecTV broadcast something in HD that is recorded in SD? It's physically impossible Blame CBS for being idiots and not buying enough cameras! CW
Fezmid Posted September 1, 2006 Posted September 1, 2006 I work in the TV industry Directv, Inc. in particular. There is a very valid reason for it it is called Sattelites in space. A sattelite can only broadcast so much before it's capacity is maxed. Sattelites take years to make and cost billions of dollars. This is your #1 reason as to why all channels are not broadcast in HD. 757299[/snapback] That has absolutely nothing to do with it. That's why DirecTV can't offer as many HD channels as Dish (for example), and why they needed to luanch a new bird to do locals in HD, but that's not CBS' problem as far as I know. What part of DirecTV do you work for?
