the problem with Full Court(and ESPN's Game Plan for football) is they're still in the stone age and shows the game in SD.

ESPNU and ESPNNews are only in SD on Dish

didn't know that 4x4. I know for Directv it's HD.

Yeh, I switched in the spring. The hardware and price were much better for Dish. The only thing I miss is ESPNU in HD.

I think the next year or so will be really interesting to see Directv if they can keep the Sunday Ticket package. I think if they lost that, you would find them lose a lot of their subscribers quite frankly.....

There was something on one of the news sites about Google wanting to buy the rights to Sunday Ticket

I don't know if I see that as being an option.

Well most news outlets reported on it last week:

Google could outbid Directv with their pocket change if they wanted to use it as a way to move Youtube into live sports in a big way.
