To my fellow NY Met fans....

  • Server Issues.

    We are very aware that there have been system issues the past few days. In troubleshooting the system, it has been determined that the issue is at our provider and is hardware related. The provider was going to move us to a new server, however we are now told by the provider the issue is at the data center in St. Louis. They have offered to move us to a different datacenter on the East Coast or West Coast, however at this time we have declined the move to a different data center as it would affect the speed of connecting to about half our members.

    We are waiting for more information from our provider, however we are trying to ride this out to stay in the same data center, so that when the server is fixed all users in the US will get the fastest connection possible.

    If after some time the issue is not resolved we will be forced to move to another data center, if this happens there will be down time, as they will need to transfer everything to the new server and we will need to update the DNS and other settings for the new IP address of the new server. If we have to do this, the time it will take to move will be out of our hands.

    We are going to try our best to weather through this, so we thank you in advance if you encounter any issues.

    Sorry for the issue!

New York Mets: All Games In HD
The National League pennant contender announces its 2008 TV schedule.

Washington, D.C. (March 7, 2008) -- SportsNet New York says it will produce all New York Mets games this season in High-Definition.

The regional sports channel will air 120 of the Mets' regular season games in HD while the remainder will air on the local CW channel, Fox and ESPN.

SNY's HD regular season coverage will begin on March 31 at 4 p.m. ET with the Mets' season opener against the Florida Marlins. Gary Cohen and former Met players Keith Hernandez and Ron Darling will handle the broadcasting duties.

The channel says Cablevision will be the broadcast's "HD sponsor."

The Mets, bolstered by the addition of lefthanded pitcher Johan Santana, are picked by many to win the National League pennant this year.
 
Good to hear definite confirmation regarding this, as there were only rumors that all Mets games would be in HD.

From what I remember, the handfull of games at Shea last year on WPIX were macroblocking nightmares. Don't know if that was a CV or WPIX problem of not enough bandwidth, hopefully this can be resolved this year. That's my only complaint regarding this.
