I realize we get a match on HDNet every week, but it'd be nice to at least have the playoff matches on ESPN2 in HD also. Anyone know if the MLS Cup will be broadcast in HD?
Not a clue, but it takes more than the cameras to do HD. They have to have an HD-capable truck as well. I'm hoping that next year's Thursday night games will be in HD. ESPN has talked a lot about "investing" in soccer.
Might be a chance next year, but this year there's no mechanism with the time buy for anyone to make enough money to justify it.
Are we sure that the game wasn't broadcast in HD on ESPN 2 HD? The cameras at the DCU ECF game were HD cameras.
This match is being broadcast live globally. There's no excuse for not ponying up the dough to have the MLS Cup on TV in HD. None. This is a disgrace. I watched Div. III college football in HD yesterday, you can't tell me the cost is too prohibitive for this match to be shown in HD.
MLS also need a bottle of JOSE CUERVO to pep this people in the narration my God they are boring......
