I watched some of the early innings and they were HD.

One think I don't like about their HD channel is the constant going from
full 16X9 to the
4X3. Irritating.

If you live in Cincinnati, you did not get to see it in HD..

Blackout rule screws me again... I think if a HD game gets blacked out
because it appears on another channel (I think FOX OH in this case) then it
MUST be available in HD by the other station... I was really looking forward
to this game in HD...

Did you mean to ask the other guy? I am hooked up via component and watch HD
every day. Watched a few ESPNHD games already. My point was, because I am in
the Cincy area, ESPN blacked out the Cincinnati game because it was already
playing on another channel (which is not HD).. Therefore, I did not get to
watch it in HD.
