My Eyes Have Seen The Glory... But Not In HD

My worst fears have been realized for the upcoming world cup. I took a look at the TV listings that were released. I was hoping with world wide leader would step and show some matches on ESPN numero uno. Na, they have to devote there time to Barry. So the majority of the games will be held on ESPN2 which is fine but friggin Comcast doesn't provide the NW with HD ESPN2. No digital Meat Helmet!! - THANK YOU COMCAST, MAY I HAVE ANOTHER....

Is Univision in HD? I do know their coverage of the last WC was way better than the Americans weak attempt. Plus, you get the sweet over-the-top Goooooaaaaallllllllllllll!!! calls.

I am sure you can find some Univision HD is the Latin realm... I'm loving the fact that most games will start at a decent hour here.

Again - Monday Jun 12th 8.55am My place for US vs. Czech Rep.

Train, you could join us at the f'n Red Door. We'll be the guys pretending to work by being "available" on IM and replying to email threads while kicking back a couple of drinks and high-fiving.

There's no CBC in HD either. That means I have to watch the Stanley Cup games with stupid American announcers or good Canadian announcers with crappy picture. Again, thank you comcast. Does ESPN even show anything but Sportscenter 24/7? That's all I ever see on it.

Channel 664 on your Digital Comcast Dial has been doing the HD thing for the NHL and I think that it's CBC with the coverage...thank you...that is all

Correction - The NHL broadcast in HD is from the OLN Feed - but at least you can still get the game in HD.

ahh yes...OLN...they had to sacrifice reruns of "Survivor" and "Amazing Race", but they're really doing it for the NHL
