Superbowl Sunday...

Grimster74

Not really a music or movie topic, just wondering who has Directv and will be receiving the Superbowl in HD. Just got off the phone with Directv and as much as I'd like to say I will be watching it in HD, NOT.... According to Directv I'm not eligible for it in my area. It shows up on the guide, channels 80 and 81 incase anyone needs to know, but when I select either channel I get the dreaded "For ordering information, please contact customer service, ext. 721" Don't ya just hate when this happens. Anyways, just wanted to know who would be lucky enough to watch it in HD. I know in my local area Adelphia cable subscribers will be seeing it in HD. Anywho....

I won't be watching it in HD. Although I can get HD, I just don't watch football.

Of course, I may have to order pay-per-view for the half-time event. That alone is worth suffering through some football just so I don't miss it.


Peace Out~:D

Cox cable here. Their HD package at the moment sucks but they do happen to carry CBSHD. Since this is practically an all day event anymore I will be curious to see what besides the game will be in HD. Someone said that even some of the commercials would be HD. So we will see.

I just can't get into sports. They hold no entertainment value for me at all, nothing I tell'ya, nothing. I find sports as exciting as watching grass grow.

Disneyland should be nice and quiet this Sunday. Most likely where I'll be.


Peace Out~:D
