Who's games weren't in HD today? The SD-BAL wasnt!! and when the previewed the rest, they said the OAK-CLE wasn't going to be either! Why have HD channels available if you're not going to brodcast your content in it?
If CBS sends their ******* cameras to a game, they should brodcast in HD!!
I don't care if it seems as if I'm going overboard, but if I pay extra for digital cable with HD channels for my HD TV so I can watch m team in HD, I feel I'm being cheated if they don't brodcast in it (and honestly, the difference in non-HD and HD football, is the biggest difference I've seen between any programming offered on both (most stuff on NBC, CBS, ABC).

most of their content (atleast the stuff people watch, ie: prime time programming) IS ALREADY IN HD! Football draws in so many people you think they'd have in HD
This is actually the first time I've seen a normal-time game NOT in HD (and it being my team's game is a big factor in it)
And gregory, Ok, I'll just not watch the channel that brodcasts my team's games. CBS does the AFC dude. Except for next week when they play SUN night, I'll have to watch them to see the Chargers.

The average CBS viewer is over 50 years old. You really think these people are into new technology? Watch your football on ESPN, FOX and ABC where their audience doesn't have one foot in the grave. NBC's audience is only a couple of years younger than the CBS audience.

CBS does not send their cameras to cover sports. They contract a mobile production truck. Just about all of the trucks on the road today are capable od delivering HDTV programming.
How CBS decides which games to broadcast may depend on many factors -- Main vs "B" feeds, market size, satellite uplink availability, and any number of things that may never make sense.

CBS couldn't care less about you paying for HD to be honest. They aren't seeing any of that money. Plus, it's pretty expensive for a network to suddenly switch completely over to HD. They're doing it slowly in accordance with the growing demand for it. Think of it like this, when color tv became available not every show was suddenly filmed in color. It took several years for networks to completely switch over to color. Give it a few more years and then everything will be done in HD.

i agree, why can't the Baltimore Ravens have HD while college football games are on HD?
