I recall reading on AVS Forum that Mark Cuban acquired HD rights from the NHL and MLB because HDNet had fewer than 1 million viewers.  Introduction into the Time Warner lineup nationwide could change that equation.  Haven't heard of any negotations.

HOWEVER, ESPN-HD is supposed to arrive in April 2003.  They could conceivably show MLB, NHL, NFL, AND the NBA in HD.  (Request TWC to add ESPN-HD!)
