NFL Network in HD?

[Proc]

With the NFL announcing that some games will be shown on its NFL Network next year, it got me to wondering if D* will get this channel in HD? The local cable companies here (Comcast and Wide Open West) both have this station in HD. If D* doesn't carry it in HD, then, obviously no HD football for us.

Any word on the street on this? Will the NFL Network go HD on D*?

They already use 98 to show NFL Network in HD when they need to (game of the week usually). I'm sure it will be done that way for NFL games.

aec4, thanks for heads-up on that. I bet that is exactly what they will do. Show the game of the week on Ch. 98.

wouldn't hold my breath on that

why? They do it all season now when they show their 1 hour game of the week show. They even do it in the summer if they are showing a game of the week.

I can virtually gaurantee they will do it with the NFL games.

There is no way D* won't show the NFL Network game in HD. They are consistantly showing NHL games from OLN that are broadcast in HD, so I think they will do the NFL games

Is NFL Network going to be a subscription package or what, I don't even know a THING about this?

Dish has NFL network and we got the HD game of the week, so I only imagine that if the games will be broadcasted in HD that Dish will get it.
