No HD Brewers - 9/1/2010?

Hey guys,

Looking at the schedule tonight and it looks like the Brewers game is only on 41 tonight? There's no way to see this in HD?? This will be the first baseball game all year I've not been able to watch in HD. And I watch baseball just about 7 days a week.

However, I must confess... I'm a displaced Reds fan (don't shoot!). I have the D* MLB EI package. Normally I see all the games in HD as the Reds full slate this year is in broadcast HD. But, when they play the Brewers, being as I'm in the Milwaukee market, I'm forced to watch the Brewers feed. And now I find they they're still broadcasting in SD? How 20th century.  :)

Unfortunetly, yes. And it's not even "good" SD. It's WMLW SD.

Man, you're not kidding. That was downright horrible. Better quality on Youtube. But, needless to say, I'm happy anyway.  :)

Now the question is will they just upgrade to HD on their low power digital channel or will they try to cram another HD channel on WDJT. :huh?:

lol. It's gonna be the Live Well / ABC fiasco all over again. WDJT already has the worst PQ of any HD channel in the Milwaukee market @ 9 Mbps... I can't wait to see the disaster when they try to cram a second 1080i HDTV signal onto it.

But I do watch 7 days a week. But in my 'confession' I admitted to watching REDS games. The only time I watch Brewers games is when they are playing the Reds, and the blackout rules force me to watch the local market broadcast.  And even those are just a few cause if the Reds are playing in Milwaukee, I'm generally at Miller Park in person.  :)

Understood, Steve. That is why I did not rag on you about watching ball 7 days a week and not noticing the WMLW situation....
