That's the problem with the part-time RSNs. Keep your fingers crossed the closer we get to game day...

Even more of a reason to start pushing for Full time RSN's!
Must be real quiet on that other side.MLB Extra Innings shows HD games scheduled for Opening day on my HDDVR ... can you guys on DN see it? Oopps I forgot. Its the other provider that has it
I just noticed that the ESPN2 feed of the Indians vs WhiteSox game is not listed as blacked out yet in my guide, and I guarantee that it will since I am in the Indians territory. That makes me think that Dish just hasn't set things up for the MLB season yet.
I too just looked for the Brewers om Monday to set my DVR. Word was FSN was showing ALL games in HD this year. I sure hope dish is going to show them in HD. Watching in SD stinks.
We are waiting for our turtle bird (D12) to take another month to move to its final spot, followed by another month before it becomes active.Must be real quiet on that other side.
Considering it is the second most popular sport in the US in ratings, the most popular in merchandise and revenue, and the most popular in attendance, I think a lot of people do.
With thousands of regular season games it's not difficult to pull that off... but otherwise, I agree with your post.
Basketball is second behind football. Since the strike in the 90's and steroid use I lost track it gets boring watching something sooo slow going.
Basketball is not second, it is not even close to baseball. I hear this all of the time. Just because you don't like it has nothing to do with its popularity.
Even the lowest rated baseball playoff series and game in the past few years had many more viewers than the highest rated basketball playoff series or game. The same is true for the all star game as well. Individual local telecasts are also higher on the average than in basketball.
Last year the lowest rated WS game was game 5 at a 10.6/16 share. The highest rated game was game 6 at a 13.4/22
NBA Championship series highest rated game last year was game 4 at a 9.4/17
Well FSN announced in January that all FSN South and SportSouth Braves broadcasts will be in HD for the first time, so there's no excuse for Dish to not have all of them as well...
