Anyone know for sure whether or not today could be our lucky day, in that Faux 6 "may" broadcast the game in EDTV? I'd be sure to rush home from Maxwell street days if that is the case!!:wave:

Doesn't matter to me as I can't receive their "Flea Power" transmissions here in Cedarburg.  So it's off to Maxwell Street Days...but then again it's only 6 blocks...I can always run back home for the game.

It should be on Sunday Ticket...

However, I was told by DirecTV that, because the local afiliate is carrying the game game over the air, DirecTV will have to black it out here in Milwaukee.

I'll be curious to see if that is the case.

So channel 6 had it sent to them in Enhanced Definition Widescreen, and they either forgot or decided not to pass it through?

If so, that's pathetic. Just Pathetic.

Fox 11 in Green Bay was in SD too. I also thought DTV would have it. But of course it was blacked out here. You would think if your local wasn't going to broadcast in High Resolution, DTV wouldn't block out their feed. I'm definitely going to get a hold of Fox 11. They even had a article in the paper saying they would be in High Resolution. Maybe there was something wrong with the national feed.

You mean it wasn't FAUX widescreen today on TWC??  Thank God I was at the game today!!  The HD quailty in Lambeau was excellent!!
:rofl:

I was rather dissaponted as well with the game not being in the widescreen format.

Does anyone no for sure if this was a local, TWC, or national issue??  I have not seen anything anywhere else saying anything about this game.

On DirecTV, it was in widescreen on channel 71.

I'd bet that 6 doesn't have the right equipment or chose not to pass on the 'enhanced' signal to TWC.

I know they have the right equipment because all the games last year that I can remember were in widescreen.  It's possible they forgot to pass on the widescreen signal.  Of course I watched anyway, but widescreen would have been better.
